Give a very short (1-3 sentence) summary of the two main scenes in this section. The first scene was at home in the living room and the second scene was in the fire house with Beatty.

In the first big scene Montag overhears his wife ,Mildred, and her friends talk about their husbands. More speciafically how thier husbands were fighting in the war, and how they didnt care because they knew they were going to be okay. When Montag hears this he gets very angry(as i would too) and starts to rage. He reads the women a poem, and one of Mildreds friend begins to cry. When Mildred sees the lady's reaction shes says that it was just a joke and that shes throwing a party for Montags 'wild' behavier. Even after saying this the women want to leave. Maybe this was all in Montags plan, because before the women leave, because when they do he yells, "Go home and think of your first husband divorced and your second husband killed in a jet and your third husband blowing his brains out, go home and think of the dozen abortions you’ve had, go home and think of that and your damn Caesarian sections too, and your children who hate your guts! Go home and think how it all happened and what did you ever do to stop it?”


In the second scene Beatty is telling Montag about a “dream” he had. In the dream Montag and Beatty where arguing, saying quotes from different books. What Beatty was trying to do was confuse Montag, making sure he would be on his side with the rest of the firemen. Luckily Faber was there to guide Montag through it. The alarm bell rang and they all went out to burn a house. They pull up at the house for Montag to only realize it is his house that they are burning.
