When Harriet gets home, she writes in her notebook about Mrs. Golly, remarking that she thinks Ole Golly is so sad to look at Mrs. Golly because she is such a dumb mother. Harriet does want to know what goes on in Mrs. Golly's head. Before bed that night, Ole Golly reads her a passage from Dostoyevsky about loving all God's creation and, through this, coming to know everything there is to know. This pleases Harriet, who wants to be a spy so that she can know everything.
