Summary
Race thinks he just fell in love. For the first time in his life Race understood why Italian was a romance language. Or maybe it’s just because of Race’s pre-existing romantic feelings for Spot.
Race keeps speaking to Spot in Italian. Spot tries his best to figure out what he's saying. Race develops a new love for his native language.
or; 5 times Race speaks to Spot in Italian + 1 time Spot replies.

Summary
Jack Kelly was afraid of a lot of things.
He was afraid that winter would come early, sending a chill through the lodge that would spread illness and hunger. He was afraid he and Racetrack wouldn’t be able to get enough gloves and hats and scarves and boots to keep the boys warm. He was afraid he would never get away to Santa Fe and its vast, open spaces. He was afraid of the Spider. And the Refuge. And how it would break his boys if they were taken. How it was probably breaking Crutchie now.
He was afraid he would break, if the blows didn’t stop soon.
Maybe that’s why he took the deal.
In which Davey learns why Jack took Pulitzer's deal, and what he had to endure in the meantime.

Summary
“Who gives a shit about what the seniors on the football team think of us?” Albert sighed and tilted his chair back. “They’re gonna graduate anyway.”
“We can't be annoying freshmen!” Race argued, “Nobody likes annoying freshmen.”
Albert leaned as far back as he possibly could without falling and a smirk grew on his face, “You’re just worried about what Spot Conlon thinks of you huh?” Race's face grew flush and he sank down in his seat.

Summary
New York City was a city of opportunity, if you knew how to seize the right one. For Jack Kelly, the right opportunity was the one that took him far away from that dirty, overcrowded prison of buildings and people. Unbeknownst to the newsie, the chance to change his whole life was about to fall from the sky right in front of him. Literally. Now instead of selling stories, Jack was going to make them. With such sudden power, what might the unsuspecting, wanna-be cowboy do with it? Will he be able to keep it a secret? And would he soon live to regret using it? After all, he's not the only person looking for the opportunity to make a splash in the ever growing pond...

Summary
"The Brooklyn leader was washed by a wave of thankfulness for Jack as he watched the other boy's face scrunched in agony.
Knowing it could have easily been his boyfriend lying there on the bed (or worse) turned Spot's stomach. He couldn't shake the terror that thought brought him.
The problem was that it wasn't an absurd thought. It could still happen, Race was now the active leader of Manhatten, and Spot did not doubt that Snider would not hesitate to use him as an example, same as he did with Jack."

Summary
“Maybe one day.”
Race hums, “yeah, maybe one day.”
Because a small part of him does want the Jets to be able to meet the people Race now considers his friends and family. He wants them to meet each other and be able to get along. He wants to be able to grab the Jets by the shoulders and shake them whilst yelling ‘we were wrong about the PRs! If we move on we’ll be better! Look how great all these guys are!’
That probably wouldn’t work though.
And then he’d probably get punched in the face for being a traitorous bastard.
---
Racetrack is getting used to the job - but life is getting hard. With the Trolley strike reaching its third week everyone is kinda struggling when it comes to sellin' papes.
Though shit doesn't really hit the fan till Pulitzer starts to want more money.

Summary
Jack might’ve won the fight but that meant nothing now; Morris was the one still inside. Guys like him would always win where it mattered. The strike; a rare fluke—hadn’t he learned his lesson enough times? It was winter in New York; he was a goddamn losing dog.

Summary
It started, like a lot of things had, on the day Spot Conlon came to Manhattan to introduce himself, a week after he’d been accepted as a leader in Brooklyn.
He looked like he was trying to figure something out, and when he accepted Race’s handshake, Race could have sworn he saw something spark across Spot’s face, an almost invisible moment of…recognition, or maybe some kind of understanding.
That was where it started.
