A few moments later, however,
Eleanor comes to the door. The panicked look on her face tells
Park that it was a “mistake” for him to come over. Her face lights up, however, when Park pulls the newest issue of
Watchmen from inside his uniform. Park asks if she wants to read it with him now, and Eleanor hurriedly leads Paul across the street to the stoop of the elementary school, where they read together under a large streetlight. When they are finished reading, Park wants to stay and talk to Eleanor, but she tells him that she needs to get home, and hurries back across the street.
