<P> Evan writes himself another letter . He states he has given up on it being a good year and how he wonders if anyone would notice if he were not there . He remarks that all his hope is now pinned on Zoe, since his crush on her is the only thing that brings him happiness . While printing the letter in the school's computer lab, he encounters Connor again, now much more subdued than he was in the morning . Connor asks what happened to Evan's arm and offers to sign his cast, musing that maybe now they can both pretend they have friends . After signing the cast, he reads Evan's letter (which he grabbed from the printer as a favor) and becomes furious at the mention of Zoe, thinking Evan intended for him to see the letter in order to make fun of him . He storms out, taking the letter with him . </P> <P> Several days pass with no sign of Connor . Evan is in an intense state of anxiety over what Connor might have done with the letter, and tells Jared online about his assignment to write letters to himself, and how he's worried about what Connor might've done with the letter . Jared remarks that Connor has always been completely out of his mind . Later that day, Evan is called to the principal's office, where Connor's parents are waiting to meet him . They tell Evan that Connor died by suicide a few days before with Evan's letter in his pocket . Believing it to be Connor's suicide note addressed to Evan, they ask Evan if he and Connor were close, as Connor had never mentioned having friends before . Not wanting to further their grief and unsure what to do, Evan agrees to go to their house to talk about Connor . There, after seeing Cynthia's distress over the loss of her son, Evan panics and, rather than telling the truth, begins to fabricate an intricate story of his and Connor's friendship, claiming he and Connor kept up a secret email correspondence and recounting a fictional version of the day he broke his arm in which Connor was with him ("For Forever"). Later, Heidi reminds Evan that he needs to begin applying for college scholarships . She mentions hearing about Connor's death, but Evan tells her not to worry and that he didn't know Connor . Seeing Connor's name signed on his cast, Heidi confronts Evan, but he lies, saying that someone else named Connor signed it . After realizing he needs evidence of his supposed "secret email account," Evan enlists Jared's help in creating fake, backdated email conversations between himself and Connor ("Sincerely, Me"). </P> <P> After Evan shows the Murphy family Connor's' emails', Cynthia is ecstatic that her son had a friend, but Larry is more hurt that Connor took his family and his privileged life for granted; Zoe, who was alienated by Connor's aggressive behavior, refuses to mourn him at all ("Requiem"). However, after reading the suicide note, Zoe notices that she is mentioned and asks Evan why Connor would say that about her; Evan, unable to tell her the truth, tells her all the reasons he loves her under the guise of Connor saying them ("If I Could Tell Her"). Overcome with emotion, he impulsively kisses Zoe, but she pulls away and tells him to leave . </P> <P> At school, Evan and Alana notice that people are starting to forget about Connor . Spurred on by a vision of Connor, Evan enlists Alana and Jared's help in founding "The Connor Project"--an organization dedicated to keeping Connor's memory alive . The three pitch the idea to the Murphys, who agree to support the project ("Disappear"); moved by his dedication, Cynthia gives Evan a necktie she had gotten for Connor that he had never worn, and asks Evan to wear it when he speaks at Connor's memorial service . At the official launch of The Connor Project, Evan gives an inspiring speech about his loneliness and friendship with Connor, which goes viral . Zoe, overcome by the impact her brother and Evan have had, kisses him ("You Will Be Found"). </P>
