The story

Spivet lives on a Montana ranch with his sister, his mother, an entomologist, and his father, a cowboy.

Before leaving, he looks at Layton's old bedroom, a shrine of dusty toys and furniture that no one feels able to throw away.

T.S. contemplates calling his family, but cannot bring himself to do it.
