Splice says as Bommy and Splice are at the carnival, "Distractions suck! All they ever do is worthlessly take your mind off the thing, and then you get even sadder when you go home and find out that it was all a lie, and you have to return to garbage!"
Bommy forced herself to ignore Splice and roughly pulled her to a rollercoaster.
Then Bommy tells Splice, "Well, it's nice to have something remind you that things can get better! Things are changing, and I'm heading to a place that's making me happy! But, of course, I'm returning to my sadness, but still!"
Splice is hurried onto the rollercoaster, both are strapped in, then it flies, the "jail curling fear that whispers sin" set in, and they both begin to forget all their worries and fears prior and allow these new worries and fears of death and destruction but also adrenaline and high amounts of dopamine set in.
After they get off the roller coaster, Bommy goes and allows Splice to have ice cream even though Splice is lactose intolerant.
Bommy has two pints of ice cream; Splice has one cone. Bommy ate the pints for the sugar high to come and make her even happier. Bommy decided that if her life was gonna suck, she'd try her best to make it as not sucky as possible.
Splice ate her ice cream, and Bommy ate the cone from Splice; the cone was vanilla.
At home, Splice was in bed farting as Bommy had a stomach ache.
