In Chapter Fourteen, events begin to intertwine until they become impossibly absurd and hilarious. All three parties to The Bet are scheduled to play on a Thursday, yet each believes the others have lost. Based on this knowledge, each agrees to double wager, a sum each can barely afford. In addition to the hilarity of the chapter, one can see another side to Dannie that might also be a bit of foreshadowing. When Dannie is well into her lie to Browning Sumner, she breaks down in tears and admits the whole truth. Clearly, this is a woman to whom honestly and integrity is important. She is not just another Chop.
