As Equality's mistrust in the scholars peaks, his curiosity expands alongside it, as he "forget[s] all men, all laws and all things," besides the elements of nature he works with (Rand 54). Equality has pushed away the innovations of the scholars in favor his own original creations.

Equality's discovery of light convinces him to believe in a revolutionary tool, and he now has a duty to "give [his] brothers a new light... brighter than they have ever known... There are no limits [this light can tell us ] anything but only if we choose to ask" (Rand 60).

Equality is now capable of seeing the truth behind everything, and such a discovery could bring momentous change to the rest of everyone around him. It is now his perceived duty to go out of his way and inform those that do not have access to such knowledge, so that the rest of society can benefit and live successfully with each other.

As Equality touches the wire to piece of zinc in the jar during one of his various experiments, “ under [his] fingers, was a miracle which had never occurred before, a new miracle and new power” (Rand 53).
Equality's new discovery of power through his rebellious actions leads to him being more knowledgeable than others in his community. The experiment conducted was the first clear to see visual of the "miracle." It was after learning about this new miracle, electricity, does Equality realize the power of knowledge due to the fact that Equality then starts to think of different ways to use electricity to improve different aspects in his lifestyle.

Equality 7-2521 is not the first,nor the last to experience loneliness and fear "For they dare not speak the thoughts of their minds. For all must agree with all, and they cannot know if their thoughts are thoughts of all, and so they fear to speak" (Rand 47). Although Equality's brothers are
surrounding each other they have a mutual feeling of isolation, even though they're together they feel imprisoned in the society that they have grown up in and thrived in. The doctors have now way of helping the boys because the constant feeling of desolation cannot be cured. The restrictions applied creates a barrier that keeps them from expressing the thoughts and emotions that haunt them.

Whenever Equality 7-2521 thinks of  Liberty 5-3000 , he "feel[s] of a sudden that the earth is good and that it is not a burden to live" (Rand 41).

Equality 7-2521 cannot suppress his infatuation with the Golden One, despite society considering it an act of rebellion; even friendship is nonexistent in the world he lives in, yet he feels the joy of intimacy in his everyday life.

The original analysis:
In a society where placing one man over another is considered a sin, even thinking about the Golden One is an act of rebellion. Yet he cannot suppress his infatuation, which he is unable understand, for even friendship is nonexistent to residents of the dystopian world. Despite this ignorance, he is joyous because of his connection with the Golden One.

Despite the restrictions, Equality still asks, “why must we know not, but it has no answer to give us” (Rand 24). He doesn't know why, but he must continue discovering the answers to the questions about the world that are ignored and glossed over by the council.

"We have given you a name in our thoughts, Liberty 5-3000.. The Golden One" (Rand 55).

Equality demonstrates his rebellious and tenacious mindset. Although his act of giving a unique name to another person is highly punishable by law, he still goes through with his actions because of his understanding of what he believes is right.

"It is our second Transgression of Preference, for we do not think of all our brothers, as we must, but only of one, and their name is Liberty 5-3000"(Rand 41).

When Equality is alone, he feels that "the air is pure under the ground, there is no odor of men. and these three hours give him strength" (Rand 46). Equality desires to be isolated because that is the only way he can be the strongest version of himself without being judged by his brothers.

When Equality stared into Liberty’s eyes he realized “that in the wisdom of women the Golden One had understood more than we can understand” (Rand 45). As they look into each other's eyes they understand how they feel for each other. Equality's anger with his brethren doesn't come only from his growing sense of unease. Equality is angry that he doesn't get to choose who he loves. Although he was relieved to learn that Liberty had not yet gone to the place of mating, he stills feels angry. And Liberty understands this. Their mutual understanding has grown along with their relationship, and now she understands how Equality feels even if he doesn't say it. They are able to wordlessly communicate to each other how much they care for one another.

Ayn Rand's utopian society is controlled by the citizens knowledge that, "[t]here is no crime punished by death in this world, save [the] one crime of speaking the Unspeakable Word" (Rand 49).

The gravity of the punishment designated for having a concept of self, implies that the society is structured on manipulation of fear, and is maintained by keeping the people oblivious to the concept.

As Equality 7-2521 witnesses the young Saint being burned, it seems as though "the eyes of the Transgressor [have] chosen [him] from the crowd... there [is] no pain in their eyes, and no knowledge of the agony of their body. There [is] only joy... and pride" (Rand 51). Despite the pain the Saint is facing, the knowledge of the Unspeakable Word gives  him a sense of inner peace. As his eyes seem to beg Equality 7-2521 to remember the Unspeakable Word, here, Equality 7-2521's curiosity sparks and marks the beginning of his rebellion. Similar to the Saint, his thirst for knowledge becomes more important than the confining rules of society and the consequences he will face.

Equality 7-2521 discovers electricity through his own experimentation, and begins to have thoughts that contradict the rules of the society he lives in and writes, “No single one can possess greater wisdom than the many scholars who are elected by all men for their wisdom. Yet we can. We do. We have fought against saying it, but now it is said. We do not care”(Rand 54). He realizes that he possesses great knowledge and the things his society has been telling him are wrong.  Equality's new discovery proves to him that the scholars aren't the only people who are intelligent and wise.

Curiosity overwhelm him as "[he] followed [his discovery in preference to all [his] studies. [He] worked with it, [he] tested it in more ways than [he] can describe" (Rand 53). Every night Equality went to his cave out of desire to find out new things, to experiment and to learn The lengths Equality goes through to push his discovery forward accentuate his wonder and his desire to rebel against society. Society is taught to stay within the limits, to not want to learn more then what you know.

The discovery of feelings and self-awareness in Liberty and Equality is new "For [they] did not understand what had made [them] do this, and [they] were afraid to understand it," (Rand 58). Liberty and Equality experience isolation within their group of brothers and sisters. During their meeting, a new concept is introduced to them where they are prioritized over their "unit". An act of instincts causes confusion as it is considered an act of selfishness.
