He is denied the request. Red then leaves the council and walks out to the prison yard when the siren goes off telling the inmates new prisoners are about to arrive. Some of the inmates make bets as to which of the new inmates will breakdown and cry first. It is now night and the other inmates are trying to make the newbie cry to win the bet. Heywood (William Sadler) makes the fat guy cry first and so he is the winner.

Hans and Rosa began to hide a Jewish man, Max Vandenburg, in their basement until Hans made a mistake that forced Max to leave before the authorities came and found him. Alex Steiner, Rudy’s father, also made a mistake that threatened the authority of the Nazi party and he and Hans were drafted into the military. Hans broke his leg and was allowed to come back home to Molching. Late one night, while Liesel was in their basement writing an autobiography, the poorer part of Molching was bombed, where she happened to live and everyone was killed, except Liesel. First of all, the book provided me with many, somewhat random out of context, but interesting facts about what went on outside of the fictional story of Liesel Meminger.
Later that night, a few of the high class kids harass Ponyboy and Johnny. The group of Socs out-numbered the two boys by a lot. They tried to drown the young, defenseless, Ponyboy.

Before they finish, Mike tells everybody that Old Misery is on his way back home. When he arrives, T prevents him from entering the house by asking for his assistance, saying that one of his friends got stuck in the toilet at the back of the house. The gang locks him in there overnight, gives him food and a blanket. The next morning, a driver starts up his car and as he accelerates he hears a loud crash. Looking back Old Misery’s house got transformed into rubble because the gang tied a rope between the car and a support beam.
He later comes up to this dining room where people are gathered for a feast, but in reality everyone is there for a reason hence the "we are all just prisoners here of our own device" (stanza 6). They are sentenced to death by a beast and they can choose to die or try to survive, but can't ever really escape. He starts to realize what's really going on, "last thing I remember I was running for the door" (stanza 7). Yet, he couldn't really go anywhere and was told this by the nightman. My interpretation of this is that he is obviously on drugs because he's been breathing in the smell of colitas.
After fooling the group into believing he is also a victim, he becomes addicted to all kinds of support groups when he realises it cures his insomnia temporarily. During the course of the story the narrator meets a man named Tyler Durden and moves in with him when his apartment is blown up in a gas explosion. The narrator stops going to the support meetings and the two men start ‘fight club’, where men come to fight each other and escape their normal lives. Tyler quickly becomes the leader of fight club and turns it into an anti-consumerist, anti-corporate terrorist organisation known as ‘Project Mayhem’. My favourite quote from the novel deals with the running theme of consumerism: “It’s only after you’ve lost everything,” Tyler says, “that you’re free to do anything.”[1] Normally the term ‘losing everything’ would obviously carry with it negative connotations but Tyler means that when a person rids themselves of all their material possessions it is only then that they are truly free.
