Pages 215-289 Summary

In the final part of Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up with Me, Freddy visits Doodle’s house after learning that Doodle wasn’t in class that day. Doodle reluctantly invites Freddy into her room and reveals that she is pregnant by showing Freddy a positive pregnancy test. Doodle explains that she slept with her married dungeon master, Peter, and the condom broke. Freddy reacts with shock and judgment, which angers Doodle; she then accuses Freddy of being a terrible friend. Doodle sarcastically thanks Freddy for coming over and asks her to say hello to Laura.

After leaving Doodle’s house, Freddy receives a text from Laura and goes to her place, where they have sex. The next day at school, Freddy asks Doodle what she plans to do about the pregnancy. Doodle says that she will get an abortion pill at a clinic and that her father is supportive. Freddy offers to accompany Doodle to the appointment on Saturday, which Doodle appreciates.

Later, at work, Laura surprises Freddy by mentioning her birthday party the following day, which conflicts with Doodle’s appointment. Freddy tells Laura she can’t attend due to an important and private matter. The next day, Laura texts Freddy, claiming there’s an emergency.
