Ginger Summary

Ginger continues to do poorly in school. When she gets home, Iris is out with Harry and the kids, and there is another man waiting who immediately advances on Ginger. The man says he has paid to have Ginger, and Ginger realizes her mother has prostituted her.

Afterward, Ginger reflects on the first time she was raped, and believes her mother sold her that time as well. Ginger scrubs herself clean with Pine-Sol and goes to see Alex. They decide to run away to Vegas and stay with Alex's father's old girlfriend, Lydia.

Ginger runs home, tells her grandmother she is staying the night with a friend named Alicia, takes all of the money Iris keeps in her dresser, and heads out. She meets up with Alex, the two of them buy bus tickets, and kiss as the bus leaves.
