Jonas goes off to his first day of training. He is surprised by all kinds of things in the Annex. First, there is a lock on the door. Second, the attendant stands when Jonas enters the Annex. Third, the room he enters is FULL OF BOOKS!!!! Fourth, the speaker in the room can be turned off.
The old Receiver looks tired and worn. He has light eyes like Jonas and Gaberial. He tells Jonas what his job will be. He must transmit to Jonas all the memories he has within himself. The memories of the past. Jonas is confused. The old man decides that he will start with Snow, Sled, and Downhill. He tells Jonas to take off his tunic and lay on the bed. He will transmit these memories by placing his hands on Jonas' back.
