There There: Part IV: Blue (3) Summary & Analysis

As the morning goes on, Blue feels herself becoming more and more aware of the safe. She never considered it a safety hazard or a liability in the weeks leading up to the event—but after getting nervous because of Jacquie’s presence, she has noticed a group of “thuggish-looking guys” standing nearby, and is growing bothered. As the group creeps closer to the table, Blue tells herself she’s being paranoid—no one would rob a powwow. Nevertheless, she looks under the table at the safe, which is covered up in a brightly-colored Pendleton blanket, just to be sure it’s still with her.
