Chapter 11 Summary: “Where it All Began”

Petey takes Sarah and the film crew (accompanied by Li’l Petey and Molly) to stand outside the Happy Home Shelter, where he recalls his mom’s constant and supportive love and her uplifting hope for a better future for them despite the challenges. Petey reflects that that love is continued in the love he shares with his clone Li’l Petey, who functions like his son.

Sarah is wrapping up the television interview and reflecting on what a wonderful ending Petey’s reflections about love were when suddenly the whole group is grabbed by a giant hand of one of the Sippy Cups.
