Hannah and Bailey visit an Episcopal church in walking distance from the UT stadium as they attempt to find the venue of the wedding Bailey recalls. The church is the sixth and final on their list, and the parish administrator requires enormous convincing to release the names of the couples who were married there during the year in question.
While at the church, Hannah receives a call from Carl at her front door in Sausalito. Carl tells Hannah Owen had been under tremendous pressure at work, saying, “He said he couldn’t just walk away. Go get another job. That he had to fix what was happening” (124). Carl also confesses he lied to his wife about investing in Owen’s company and he really used the money on Cara, his girlfriend. Hannah is furious: ”I think of Patty, self-righteous Patty, telling her book club, her wine club, her tennis group—telling just about anyone in ladies central who will listen to her that Owen is a crook. Telling everyone the false information her husband has fed her” (125). Hannah tells Carl he needs to come clean to his wife and hangs up.
Bailey, in the meantime, has convinced the parish administrator to help them, but when Hannah tells her that they are looking for weddings from 2008, the administrator informs them that the church was closed for a major renovation that year.
