The story of Maxon realizing that his life is about to be forever changed. The life Maxon knew before The Selection, before America, and before becoming King. 
 (view spoiler)[ 
 We learn the truth behind Daphne and Maxon. Childhood friends that grew up together and never fully prepared for the day that they had to become adults. Daphne confessed her love to Maxon, but he turned her away by putting his country first. 
 The irony of the Queen and King meeting while in her nightgown only for America and Maxon to also meet when she's in her gown. America was a little brat to Maxon at first, but that was what lured Maxon to her in the first place. Maxon wasn't looking for a girl that would throw herself to his feet but instead he wanted an equal - a friend - someone he could trust to be honest.
