The Narrator meets Marla at a support group so they don't get tracked, Marla knows that Tyler killed someone, but its the Narrator for her and she says that she called the police ,and he will get a lethal injection or the electric chair. Marla also says that the Narrator hit her, she has a black eye. The Narrator says that it wasn't him, that it was Tyler, he also says that she should be careful, because Tyler's space monkeys might have been instructed to kidnap her. She asks why should she believe him, the Narrator says it's because he might like her.

The Narrator starts to remember some of the things he has done while Tyler was in control. The man that Tyler killed was putting together a list of all the places where Fight Club had been taking place, thats why he shot him. When he dropped, his wife thought it was a part of the murder mistery they were playing, untill she tasted the blood coming from her husband and realised it was real. One reason why Tyler might have come into existence was because without him he would not have gotten close with Marla. The Narrator later tries to die by going to Fight Club and fighting 50 men, one after another.

Research question: Even if the man had put together the list of Fight Clubs then what? Go to the police? They are a part of the fight club themselves, he died for nothing.

Because chapter 29 and 30 are too short to not be put together.

Chapter 29.

The Narrator wakes up at the house and Tyler is next to him. He says that the last things that needs to happen is his big sacrifice, the Narrator refuses to go, but Tyler threatens to go after Marla, so he complies and go with him. We are back to where the story began, on the top of a scycraper with Tyler holding a gun in the Narrators mouth. Its actually him holding the gun nin his own mouth, but he cant do anything about it. Sudently Marla appears with some members from the support group, so Tyler dissapears and they try to get him to put the gun down. They know the building is about to explode and Marla confeses she likes the Narrator too, she knows who is Tyler and who is the Narrator, they are not the same person in her eyes. The building does not explode because Tyler messed up the recipe. The narrator pulls the trigger....

Chapter 30.

The Narrator sees what heaven is like, there are angels and everything is white, he can sleep in heaven. He sits at a desk with god, he tells God that people are neither special, nor trash. They just are. God says this is not true, the Narrator calls him a liar. Now what actually happened. The bullet ripped a hole in his cheek and Tyler was gone. He ends up in a mental hospital, he want to call Marla but is scared, because it seems Fight Club is still active, with people still walking around beaten up, Calling him Tyler and saying "We look forward to getting you back.”

Research question: What now? how will the life of our Narrator turn out? Will he be able to reuinite with Marla?
