This segment of Victor's life at a new location starts off in pain. But, hardly before the pain is gone, his life lessons turn deadly as he narrowly escapes being stomped to death and killed with a gun. Things settle down a bit as he goes through several learning lessons that make a lasting impression on him. Then, he is wrapped up in heartbreak, shame, and guilt as circumstances out of his control force him to quit school, something he vowed not to do. He finishes this segment of life talking about family before surviving a couple more life-threatening situations. Most everyone can remember their first car, but rarely have issues like his.
