It is decided that Campbell, Resi, and Kraft will travel to Mexico City, and from there find their way to a secluded village and assume new identities. Campbell tells Resi he will start to write again; she is overjoyed, believing she has inspired Campbell, and promises to care for him while he writes. Kraft suggests Campbell write under the pseudonym Don Quixote. Jones firms up the plans for their trip to Mexico; however, that evening, The Iron Guard of the White Sons of the American Constitution are having a memorial service for Krapptauer, and Campbell agrees to deliver the eulogy.

Helga—still pretending to be Resi—speaks to the youth core of The Iron Guard of the White Sons of the American Constitution. She delivers a speech on the evils of Communism, though she needs prompting from Jones to attribute those evils to the Jewish and Asian populations. Before Campbell delivers his speech, a 15-minute recording of one of his broadcasts is played. While listening to it, Campbell reflects that his “schizophrenia” is what allows him to live with what he has done (179). (Campbell is not referring to a mental health diagnosis, and he uses the term ‘schizophrenia’ in a metaphorical manner).
