As they walk, Grover explains that Percy’s learning disabilities are actually his strengths as a demigod. When they arrive at the beach, they see a heard of centaurs and Percy recognizes one as Mr. Brunner. The two meet up with their teacher, who intrudes himself as Chiron. They walk to the beach and, after Grover goes off to speak with daughters of Aphrodite, Chiron shows Percy his cabin.

Annabeth mentions how their divine parents have been rivals for millennia and that Zeus decreed that the gods must not contact their demigod children. Soon Grover calls them back to the room and they watch an interview with Gabe painting Percy as a criminal. When Grover goes to the bathroom, he angrily picks up Medusa's head and tells the demigods not to put it in the bathroom sink. However, a maid walks by and screams upon seeing the head. The three then flee and make their way to Nashville. When they reach Nashville, they scout out the park and find the pearl on the statues head.
