11th (pt. 3)

 Montag is told to burn his own house down by Beatty. He says he will not do this because it is his own house and he can't bring himself to do it. Faber is trying to convince Montag to run, but the mechanical hound is there and ready to attack Montag. He goes into his house with a flame thrower to torch it, but he turns around and torches Beatty instead. He knocks the other two fire men out and then kills the hound. Mildred has run away in the beetle taxi. Montag is walking down the street with a poisoned and dysfunctional leg as the pages end.

Literary elements: 

Allusion: "He wanted to fly near the sun and now he has burnt his damn wings"
