Problems in the Scholl household. Inge is angry because she thinks Sophie had an affair with Otl. Their mother is sad because her husband is still in jail and all of her sons are on the front.

The family celebrates Hans' birthday in his absence as well as the end of Sophie's armament duty. But Sophie's mother still misses Hans, Werner and her husband. Sophie made amends with Otl who has read Sophie's letters.
Although Hansi was able to get his hands on a hectograph he threw it into the Danube out of fear from the Gestapo. Sophie fears that all her hope sank with it.
Sophie is happy to be active again but has to stay on her toes. Most people she has met on her journey are afraid to jeopardize others with their inadvertence.

Professor Huber warns the group that the university suspects students to be behind the flyers. The best camouflage: Act as normal as possible and be at the university regularly while constantly working on the next flyer.
