Paulie changes her clothes, and she puts on the hooded gray sweatshirt again. She has her knapsack on, and she runs into the woods to feed the falcon. The falcon is sitting on a branch, which is low to the ground. Paulie feeds it.

Paulie: "You wouldn't take it lying down, would you? If some girl bird broke up with you...You wouldn't just lie there and squawk...You would fly to the highest branch and swoop your lady love back again under your wings. You'd fly away through the sky. You wouldn't just lie down and take it...like a girl!"

As Paulie speaks with her raptor, we can feel that raptor is her friend...she always comes to the raptor in wood... to speak with herself... That raptor is a symbol for her soul and spirit.
