Summary
Analysis
In an email, Maddy introduces herself, says that Olly has nothing to apologize for, and asks what the Bundt is made of. Olly declares that Maddy is a terrible spy if she doesn’t already know his name. He suggests that the cake is made of rocks. In response, Maddy sends a joke recipe for a Bundt cake made of cement, sawdust, and paint thinner. She insists she’s not a spy.
Choosing to email Olly is another major step for Maddy, as this is the first time she’s ever spoken with someone her own age. As they talk, Maddy gets to start to figure out who she wants to be without the influence of Mom or Carla.
