The narrator wakes up in the middle of the night. He's worried that he's going to be watched by the men of the corps. He tells the captain that he hasn't slept well in a while and that he has to go to the bathroom a lot. The captain tells him that he looks tired, and the narrator says that's because he has been going to the loo a lot lately. He says that the captain looks like a "chest nut" , which is a reference to the fact that he doesn't look like a normal human being when he goes to the toilet. The narrator says he was scared the captain would turn into a "titan" . He then asks the captain what his schedule is for the day, and he says he'll be cleaning all the time. He also says that his hair looked great the other day, which makes the narrator feel bad for the captain. He wants to shave the captain's head, but the captain won't let him do it. He asks if the captain feels bad for his hair, and then asks if he can cut it off for a friend of his. When the captain says no, the narrator asks if it's okay for him to cut off his own hair, since he'd like to do so for someone else. He goes on to say that he got back his tooth from the captain, which means he can now shave his own head. He wonders if this is a good idea, since it'll make his heart race.
