Chapter six in The Way to Rainy Mountain contains three sections based around the spider, maternality, and awe in Kiowa tribe mythology. The first section of chapter six continues a timeless Kiowa verbal story. The story takes place after the child of the Sun is taken down to earth after his mother is killed. After this, the child meets a giant spider named grandmother. This shows what the spider might mean to the tribe, perhaps a maternal figure? The spider finds the gender of the child by placing a bow and a ball alone overnight. The child then plays with the bow and the spider knows the child is male.

...Grænseoverskridende underholdning Søren Staal Balslevs uddrag af artiklen ”Giftigt: Klædt af” handler om et tv show som hedder sandhedens time. Artiklen er fra weekendavisen den 26. september 2008. Showtet handler om at der er en vært og en deltager. Deltageren for stilt 50 personlige spørgsmål før showet. En løgn detektor afgøre om deltager svare sandt eller falsk på spørgmålene. Under showet sidder værten og deltageren over for hinanden, mens deltagerens familie og venner sidder i en sofa et stykke længere væk. Ideen med showet er så at deltageren får stillet 25 af de 50 spørgsmål. Hver gang han eller hun svare rigtigt kommer deltageren ligt tættere på at vinde 500000 kr. Ligesom i ”hvem vil være millonær” Når et spørgsmål er blevet stillet til deltageren, har familien eller vennerne mulighed for en gang i løbet af showet at trykke på en knap, så bliver spørgsmålet sprunget over og deltageren får stillet et nyt. Spørgsmålene kan være meget personlige og stødende for venner og familie. F.eks. kunne spørgsmålet være ”føler du at du er blevet svigtet af din far da du var barn” eller ”er du flov over din mor”. Det er spørgsmål som disse som vil skade forholdet mellem deltageren og familie eller venner, som showet beskæftiger sig med. Søren Staal Balslev giver i stor grad udtryk for sin mening i artiklen. Han fortæller om showet på sådan en måde at han får læseren til synes at det er et forfærdeligt program. Hvordan programmet nedbryder mennesker, og udnytter folks...

He only had about 18 months of schooling when he was young. He was an avid reader, and he taught himself what he needed to know. For example, when he wanted to be a lawyer, he studied law on his own and became a lawyer. After his election to the state legislature, Lincoln wanted to become a lawyer, and began to teach himself the law by reading. He was admitted to the bar in 1837, and began his career as a successful lawyer. He also served in the Black Hawk War in 1832 to help fight off Native American tribes. After a brief return to his legal career, the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 caught the attention of Lincoln. Lincoln spoke out against the spread of slavery. He ran for the Senate in 1854 as a Whig, but was not elected. On April 14, 1865, John Wilkes Booth, a famous actor and Confederate sympathizer, fatally shot President Abraham Lincoln at a play at Ford’s Theatre in Washington, D.C. The attack came only five days after Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered his massive army at Appomattox Court House, Virginia, effectively ending the American Civil War.
