Two Worlds
- Because the TV isn't working, Monica tells the story of a movie.
- Curious, Lakshmi asks Shahanna how Monica and Shilpa know about movies, and Shahanna explains that Shilpa (the aging bird girl) is here because she wants to be and because her mother was in the business—it's a family thing.
- Monica won't run off, Shahanna says, because she has a child in her village, and if she runs, Mumtaz will take the child, hurt it, and sell it to a beggar.
- Lakshmi thinks about how ugly the world is.
