Strap in, scary book people—things get absurd (and flammable) in Chapter 5.2 of Slaughterhouse-Five. Billy Pilgrim stumbles into a series of surreal scenarios, from setting himself on fire (casually, of course) to hallucinating about giraffes, all while wearing a coat that would make any fashion critic weep. Jennifer and Dan break it all down, with Robot stepping in to introduce us to Kilgore Trout.

Things To Listen For:

  • The tragic hilarity of Billy catching on fire—and not noticing.
  • Jennifer’s thoughts on Billy’s mental state—crazed or coping?
  • How morphine dreams led Billy to a giraffe utopia.
