Dean Holder's world implodes when he discovers his twin sister Les's lifeless body surrounded by emptied pill bottles. His once vibrant existence becomes what he describes as a "colorless photocopy" of life. Just days before, he had confronted Les's boyfriend Grayson for cheating, forcing him to break up with her. Though Les seemed to handle the breakup well - even making plans to watch movies with Holder the night before her suicide - her death reveals how little he understood her inner turmoil. While searching for clothes for her funeral, Holder discovers an unused leather-bound notebook between her mattress and box spring - a gift from their father that Les had dismissed as something requested by her therapist. This notebook becomes Holder's emotional lifeline as he begins writing letters to his sister. The funeral becomes an exercise in emotional endurance - uncomfortable stares, whispers, and pitying smiles make Holder want to shield his mother from reliving Les's death. During the memorial slideshow, he makes a devastating realization: Les had the identical smile in every photograph, contrasting sharply with the nights he heard her crying herself to sleep. "I knew the girl who cried at night. I knew the girl who smiled in the pictures. But I didn't know the girl that linked that smile with those tears." Returning to school brings another layer of suffering as rumors spread that he was indirectly responsible for Les's suicide. When Holder overhears a student callously describing Les's suicide as "pathetic," he violently attacks him - an action that leads to his arrest and court-ordered relocation to Austin to live with his father.
