The Girl on the Train Chapter 12 Summary

How It All Goes Down

Megan

  • Megan is mad that her mystery man hasn't contacted her: "I can live without him, I can do without him just fine—but I don't like to lose" (12.3).
  • That afternoon, she marches straight into Kamal's office and says she wants to be with him.
  • He rebuffs her, saying "It's transference, Megan" (12.32).
  • He says he shouldn't have let things get so far, and when she tries to kiss him, he pushes her away.
  • On her way home, she plots her revenge.
