Paper Towns

On Friday, Quentin drives to Collier Farms, one of the pseudovisions on his list. Though finding the name on the brochure in the strip mall has made him more optimistic, the land is overgrown and he finds no clues about Margo. He heads to the last pseudovision on his list, Logan Pines, and gets a call from Ben while on his way there. It turns out that Radar’s parents have left town suddenly. A black Santa collector—who has the second largest collection in the country—died unexpectedly and they are flying out to buy his collection. In their absence, Radar is planning a party. Quentin says he cannot attend, but Ben implores him, saying that they do not expect him to abandon his search for Margo; they just want him to spend one evening with them before graduation. Though Quentin is bothered by Ben’s attitude towards Margo, he remembers what Radar told him previously about accepting other people as they are, and agrees to go to the party after his search.

Quentin reaches Logan Pines but finds nothing there. This pseudovision is the last one on his list, and he cannot understand why Margo might have wanted him to search these abandoned places.
