Overwhelmed by school, extracurricular commitments, and anxiety about interpersonal relationships, the BSC decides to call it quits. This is of course undone by the end of the book. The most interesting thing is Kristy's realization that a) she's overly controlling (which she realizes pretty frequently anyway), and b) the BSC has a monopoly on babysitting in Stonybrook.
