The story returns to its "now" - the scene in Gavin Stevens' office a week after the picnic - and Ratliff finally starts to tell "just exactly what happened" (137). However, like the narrator earlier, Ratliff begins by providing some contextual information, in this case about what a "dog thicket" is (137).
