The next morning, Jake awakens early and digs for worms near the inn. After Bill wakes up, they go together to breakfast, during which they joke nonsensically and tease one another. Packing a lunch, they hike together to a trout stream, where they split up in order to fish; they meet again for lunch and joke some more, during which the subject of Jake's injury arises and is dropped. After napping, they walk back to the hotel. Jake tells us that this goes on for five more days, during which he and Bill hear nothing from Cohn, Brett, or Mike.
