Later, Laura wants to take her teacher exam but cannot afford the books. In result, she asks Nellie if she can borrow them, Nellie agrees and gives Laura and piece of advice, that the test doesn't have any history. Laura studies the books thoroughly until the test comes and finds the all of the questions are full of history.

After leaving school, Laura is moping until she notices Nellie coming back from Almanzo's house. She confronts Nellie and the two engage in a wrestling match in the mud.
