Summary of part 2 - Bernard goes to the director for a permit to get onto the Savage Reservation. At the request, the director starts to tell the story of him and a previous lady on their trip to the reservation. This allows a brief glimpse of his humanity. He says they were having fun until he woke up one morning and she was gone. Bernard says it must of been a terrible shock and the director returns to being the director again and threatens to send Bernard to Iceland if he kept getting the reports he's been getting about Bernard. Bernard is excited by the threat, thinking that it gave him significance. He then went to Helmholtz who didn't like listening to it because he hated hearing Bernard brag, which he did often.
Summary of part 3 - Lenina and Bernard make it to the Reservation. She says she needs all the amentities the hotel has, and after being asked many times she says she's going to the Reservation. When they arrive, the warden gives a long speech about the Reservation. They sat, listening and not knowing what he was saying. Bernard then realizes he left his Eau De Cologne on. He asks Helmholts if he'll turn it off, which he says he says he will, but not before he tells Bernard that the director is sending him to Iceland
