Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Some of the Unwinds find the graves of the five murdered kids, and “Someone suggests that the Admiral did it himself. The suggestion becomes rumor, and the rumor quickly becomes accepted as fact. The Admiral killed his own! He’s everything Roland says he is” (245). A mob of kids heads toward the Admiral’s jet.
The Admiral asks Risa for aspirin, but she insists on taking his blood pressure first. Outside, she hears a commotion.
The mob tries to get inside the jet, but Risa closes the hatch. “Then someone tears out the power line connecting the jet to its generators. The lights go out, the air-conditioning shuts down, and the entire jet quickly begins to bake in the broiling sun” (247).
