Part 4, Chapter 23 Summary

Molly waits outside the hotel until Rodney arrives. Molly texts him, saying she is at the front door but no one will let her in. Rodney texts back that he’ll be right there.

Molly approaches the hotel. Mr. Preston sees her coming and, as agreed, picks up his hotel phone and tells Mr. Snow that Molly is at the front door and that she won’t leave. Molly’s job is to attract as much attention as she can. She loudly announces that she has every right to be there. Mr. Snow emerges from the hotel. Mr. Preston tells Mr. Snow he is going to fetch security and enters the hotel while Molly keeps Mr. Snow distracted. Mr. Snow tells her she has been fired, and she argues at length, demanding explanations, begging, and holding forth about her value to the hotel.

Finally, Mr. Preston returns. He tells Mr. Snow he couldn’t find Security and takes Molly aside. He slips her a master key card. Rodney bursts through the doors and bounds toward Molly. He promises Mr. Snow he can get her to leave. While Rodney assures Molly he will talk to Mr. Snow and get her job back for her, she passes him the key.
