When Franics Lettermen, arrives, Jarvis sees little in common with Lettermen. The two spend the first week in the family home library, studying university level; math, science, and much more. Despite, the cold start at first, Jarvis begins to warm up to Francis. Much to his parent's delight, Jarvis comes out of his shell and begins exploring, such as reading, writing poems, and playing the violin.
