The beginning of the chapter starts with Oskar looking around his dad's room, he finds a blue vase that he accidentally breaks, finding an envelope with the word "Black" on it and a key inside. This finding leads Oskar to go on a hunt for the purpose of these items.He tries the key on everything in his apartment, but comes to no avail. He then tries to find out why "Black" was written on the envelope. He checks the art store and is told that it is odd for the word "Black" to be written in red ink. The store manager then shows him a page in a book that has words written in different colors from what they describe as an example that it isn't easy to write the name of a color in a different color.

It starts off with a man saying "To my unborn child" which is referencing a message that was for Oskars dad who passed away. It then goes on to say how he has slowly started to loose the ability to speak starting with the word Anna and slowly getting worse. He begins to fill in words he's lost with others that don't quite fit what hes trying to say. After he looses the ability to speak he gets YES and NO tattooed on his hand and starts to write notebooks with every day words and phrases that'd he use. One day while at a coffee shop a lady comes up to him and talks about how both of them are the same and how broken they are, she can just see it in him unlike other people. He tells her he doesn't speak and she breaks down in tears until writing "please marry me" in his book. They go back and forth each time Grandpa considers it more and more until asking for "help".

"I timed myself and it took me 3 seconds to open a lock. Then I figured out that a baby is born in New York every 50 seconds, and each person has 18 locks, a new lock is created in New York every 2.777 seconds. So even if all I did was open locks, I'd still be falling behind by .333 locks every second."
