Summary
When Mattie works late, Alfred is by himself. When he's by himself, there's no one around to remind him that he's still Alfred F. Jones. That he can still be happy after the crash. There's no one around to give a shit and that's what hurts the most.
Then he goes to Room 125, sees Mr. Bragniski smile at him and hand him his trumpet, where he lies to himself and pretends that what they have is enough. It's not, it never was and never will be.
