In the beginning of the chapter, the author just talks about humans and beasts and the different physical characteristics they have. The actual story continues when Julia is tossing her ball at her dog, Margarita. The boys refuse to play with her as they are searching for nests. When Marcus finds a nest, he makes Quintus climb up the tree to look at it. However, when Quintus takes a close look, he sees that the eggs have already hatched. All of a sudden, the branch breaks, Quintus falls, and he is hurt. Marcus calls for Julius, who carries Quintus back to the house and puts him in bed.
