Chapter 6 Summary
In a phone call, Beanie can’t believe that Katie never introduced herself to Hutch as his videographer. Once her equipment and luggage finally arrive, Katie spends the weekend mentally preparing herself for her assignment. When she arrives for the job on Monday, Katie worries about what Hutch will think of her. A Lieutenant named Carlos Alonso escorts her into the air station and introduces her to several other friendly aviators, easing her worries about the military seriousness of the Coast Guard. However, when Katie meets with Hutch and introduces herself as his videographer, he is surprised not to see Cole, and he doesn’t immediately recognize Katie. When Hutch learns that Cole isn’t coming, he storms out of the room.
Chapter 7 Summary
Through the wall to the next room, Katie and Carlos hear Hutch leaving an angry voicemail to Cole. He mentions the hoops he had to jump through to get Cole to Key West, especially because Rue wanted them all together for an important day on October 4th. Hutch tells Cole about how short life can be and how much he wants to give up on him, but Hutch admits he can’t because Cole is the only brother he has.
