They take a tour of the facility, and Mike is fascinated by it all. They come to the scaring floor, and all of the taller classmates migrate to the front of the group. Mike kindly asks them to move, but to no avail. He traverses away through to group so he can get a look at the scarers.

Through the portrayal of the characters’ varied responses to the struggle of finding balance between the learned ways of the Western world and their indigenous upbringing, McNickle shows how the acculturation of native youth ultimately led to the destruction of the vitality and drive of the entire population.
