At school, Hailey calls Starr out for lying to them about knowing Khalil. She demands an apology and refuses to apologize for the racist things she has said because they were only jokes. Both Maya and Starr try to sensitize Hailey to the reality that they have been hurt by her comments, but like many white people, Hailey refuses to take responsibility for her actions. Instead, she doubles down, lashing out at Starr and insinuating that Khalil deserved to die, telling her "he was probably gonna end up dead anyway" because he was a drug dealer and gangbanger. When Hailey says that "the cop probably did everyone a favor," Starr can no longer contain the anger that has long been simmering between them. She punches Hailey in the face, starting a fight that Hailey's brother and Seven eventually join in on. All four end up with three-day suspensions from school. Starr's parents are disappointed that Starr and Seven got involved in a school brawl, but they also understand why it happened. "This is exactly what They expect you to do," Starr's mother admonishes.

They also celebrate Seven's birthday and high school graduation.
