Jellicoe Road Chapter 20 Summary

  • A week before the Cadets are due to leave, everyone finally reaches an agreement about the Club House. Ben, Anson Choi, and a couple Townie guys with mullets are excited to be the official band.
  • For the Club House's inaugural night, thirty people from each faction show up. It's super awkward because no one is talking to anyone, and Taylor wants to yell out that the original five meant for the territory wars to be a game, not something that actually caused such division.
  • A chess game gets going between Richard and the Cadets' star chess player, which livens things up.
  • Mainly, the only thing awesome happening is Ben's band, which is actually really good. Jonah even apologizes for smashing Ben's fingers.
  • A guy from the Cadets plays chess against Taylor and hits on her. Taylor, looking at Jonah, shoots him down and says that she's taken. The look on Jonah's face makes her night.
