Grandpa was on the way to the hospital because of the incident. The doctors kept him for another two days and diagnosed him with Alzheimer's Disease. Everyone felt like it was their fault because they didn't react to it soon as they realize he was forgetting things but it wasn't. Pete finally told Aj that he couldn't try out for the baseball team. Pete felt happy for Aj, also was a upset that he still couldn't play.

Pete and grandpa spent their day together and they went out to get breakfast one morning. While the were eating a lady came up to grandpa and told him that he took pictures at her wedding and grandpa looked like he didn't remember anything about ehr or taking pictures. Pete said he had a motto "Get the shot", and also "Never, EVER forgets the brides name."

Pete and Angelika were invited to a party by the popular Linnie Vaughn so that Pete could take pictures after the game after they win.

Pete grandpa picked him up from school because he was sick,and once they got to the house Pete noticed all the sticky notes in the house to remind grandpa what he needed to do like flushing the toilet or too brush his teeth even the instructions on how to cook toast.

While doing the lab station with the pig, his friend began to play with the pigs arm and that started to make him a little sick because his arm got broken too, also his friend made the pig arm snap and that's when Pete began to throw up. So he went to the nurses office and his grandpa got him from school because his mom and dada were at work.

At the beginning of class Pete and Angelika had to turn in there pictures but Pete was kinda embarrassed because of his scars and he looked like a little kids but he saw that Angelika got kinda sad because he didn't wanna turn them in so he let her turn them in. Also the pictures that Pete would take would end up n the school magazine and everyone would start complimenting him because they were so good.

Pete and Angelika were not ready to show the teacher their pictures, also they went into details about the photographic style of Henri Cartier-Bresson.

Pete couldn't handle the fact that his grandpa was getting to a certain point where he couldn't remember things. He didnt wanna believe that his grandpa has alzheimer's. When Angelika began to talk about Aj, and she said that she wanted to blow up a picture of him and Pete began to get jealous about it.

Everyone seemed to act normal, or didn't know about grandpa falling.

When Pete got a random call from someone, and didn't know who it was then finally realized that it was his grandpa and his grandpa told him to rush over to his house. Pete got there and found grandpa on the ground and told him it was really nothing but Pete didn't think it was nothing.
