The Shift
- Sure Auggie's been trying to change his image and all, but the fight with alien hostile seventh graders is pretty much making him a legend. Things have changed. Everyone knows what went down, and boys offer friendly fist-bumps in the hall.
- While each telling of the story becomes bigger and more colorful, the elements that do not change are that August got picked on because of his face and Jack defended him, and that Amos, Henry, and Miles did too.
- Julian has missed everything so he's "out of the loop" (8.The Shift.2).
- But he still never misses an opportunity to give Auggie a dirty look.
