He asks her if she remembers Clarisse. She says she remembers that the girl died four days ago in the car accident and the family moved out. Montag couldn't believe it. But just goes to sleep. In the morning he finds out that he is sick and cant go to work. His boss came to talk to him about it. his name was Beatty. He tells Montag about how firefighters always get an itch to steal 1 or 2 books and read them. He says that they give the person 24 hours to turn it in or the go to his house and burn it. When he leaves Montag tells Mildred about the book he has. She then starts to go paranoid thinking that they will get caught and that they will lose their house. But Montag convinces her otherwise and tells her to help him read all the books he has. He then took a whole bunch of books out of a vent in the ceiling. They start reading and then it's the end of the 1st "part" of the story. ( The story is divided into 3 LONG parts) We really read alot this time. It was boring at times but there were funny and cool moments, both in the book and in our minds.
