Before the summer is over, Elphie has been invited to a cottage that Galinda has been staying at. It is one of her friends. Boq insists that Elphie goes, and has fun with the girls. However she is unable to go without a chaperone. This is where Avaric falls into place. He is a friend of Boq, and has also been away for the summer. M. Morrible does not approve of the young girl travelling with two young boys, she forces Grommetik to chaperone along with them. Once they arrive at the cottage, it is revealed that the invitation was a prank and they never thought that Elphie would show up. She is very upset and insists that she stays, out of spite.
