Montag and Faber had hatched a primitive plan to subtly
start a revolution in the minds of society by encouraging them to think for themselves
again, to question what was happening around them. That plan was to start with Faber
coaching Montag at his own home, with his wife and her two friends, by nudging them in
the right direction.
But Montag moves too quickly, does too
much too fast and reads them a poem while they are in the TV room, a poem so beautiful
it makes one of the women cry. Both of his wife Millie's friends turn Montag in to
Captain Beatty, but in the end, because she knows he has secretly hidden books and
because of her own fear, Millie reports him as well. Montag has to lose everything in
order to be free.
