Jerri tells her new boyfriend that she's a virgin, but her claim is complicated by a case of syphilis she contracted while turning tricks, which she then gives to him.

When Jerri discovers her American Indian heritage, she attends a camp run by a councilor who teaches adopted Indian children about aspects of their culture, such as alcoholism and gambling.

Stew, Jerri's stepmother's meat man, goes insane days before Jerri needs him to appear at her school career day.
