Pip visits Max Hastings at home under the pretense of being his friend. Max’s mother lets Pip in, and Pip immediately challenges Max in front of her by asking how well Max really knew Andie Bell. Alarmed, Max takes Pip upstairs to his bedroom so his mother will not hear more about Andie and Sal.

In Max’s room, Pip presses Max about his claim that Andie was only an acquaintance. Pip cites a witness from a March 2012 calamity party who saw Max and Andie alone together and looking close. Max denies any secret relationship and mocks Pip’s investigation, but Pip notices Max repeatedly glancing toward his noticeboard.

Pip moves closer to the noticeboard while continuing the questioning. When Pip searches through Max’s papers, Max tries to stop Pip, but Pip pulls out a hidden photo of Andie in black underwear. Max admits Andie did not give Max the photo and claims Max found it hidden at school, then kept it without telling anyone.

Pip threatens to take the photo to the police, so Max changes tactics and asks Pip not to involve them. Max admits Max knew Andie much better than Max previously claimed, but insists Max and Andie were not romantically involved. Instead, Max says Max was buying drugs from Andie.

Max explains that Andie sold weed and pills at calamity parties and clubs to a small group of people. According to Max, Andie worked with an unknown real dealer in town, giving that dealer access to the school crowd, and Andie did it for money and the power it gave her. Max says Sal hated drugs and did not know, and Max cannot identify Andie’s supplier or say where people got drugs after Andie died.
