FULL SUMMARY:
Chapter 12 reveals Crystal's father's excitement over Ginger resuming playfulness and tricks, which he ascribes to Kevin's rare talent with animals. This change prompts him to suggest restarting exhibitions for the dolphin, initially with a small audience for building up her confidence. He’s so energized by the progress, it brings a youthful vitality to him, reminiscent of a boy on Christmas morning discovering a brand-new bicycle gifted by Santa. However, Crystal remains apprehensive about Kevin's purported expertise on dolphins and interprets her mother’s knowing glance as shared scepticism. Despite the change in Ginger’s behavior, Crystal questions when Kevin became the vast dolphin expert. Fearing confrontation, her mother diverts the topic to Crystal's impending conclusion of sketches for an upcoming seahorse exhibit. Capitalizing on Aqua World's early weekend closure, Crystal's father proposes inviting Sanri to the next practice session, providing Ginger with an audience. By doing so, he hopes to promote a more enriching environment for Ginger’s development under Kevin’s mentorship. Despite the unanimous enthusiasm about Ginger's positive changes, Crystal finds herself surprisingly reflective, as she contemplates what Kevin shared previously about his personal struggles, making her see him in a new light. Her newfound empathy manifests itself tangibly, as she hugs her father at the dining table, dismissing his surprise by attributing it to a spontaneous gesture. This chapter implies a softening in Crystal's feelings towards Kevin as she navigates her conflicting observations and the revelations of his background.
