When Connie sees Arnold Friend in a restaurant parking lot he yells over, "Gonna get you, baby" (2). In the end he fulfills his initially playful threat when he comes for Connie at her home. In another instance of foreshadowing, Connie awakens from a nap and is temporarily disoriented, momentarily failing to recognize her backyard. This mirrors the story's final scene when she walks out her front door into unrecognizable "vast reaches of sunlit land" (14).
