In this chapter, we learn that the two men have known each other for a long time, and that they've never been able to trust each other. They're both afraid of the new government, and they don't want to be a part of it. The two men agree that it's their own choice whether they want to live or die. They agree that they need to attack the enemy, but that they still need to figure out how to get into the country. They also need to find a way to communicate with each other, since they're going out together. They should be honest, they agree, even if family members can't do it.
