“Last night you took all the pills in the bottle.”“Oh, I wouldn't do that.”“The bottle was empty.”“I wouldn't do something like that. Why would I do something like that?" he said.1B. This part is significant because it shows how different a hospital is in this timeline. The hospital alone seems very threatening and the process of saving Mildred is truly horrific. The sentences that make him feel this way are “Has he drunk the darkness? Has he sucked up all the poisons accumulated over the years?” These give the scene a truly terrible atmosphere.

Even Mildred was trying to protect him, saying, "Sir, once a year, every fireman can take home a book, from the old days, to show his family how silly he was..." However, I think Mildred is doing this is to his advantage because he may not want his friends to leave, or if he loses Montag, then he has nothing. So, this passage may not only foreshadow that Montag will be in big trouble later, but also some facts about Mildred's personality.14A. "Go home." Montag stared at her in silence. “Go home
