This chapter's soliloquy begins with a description of the band. It's a band that allows you to carry a lot of stuff, but it's also loaded with useful items. The band lets you carry as much stuff as you want, and it also lets you get rid of stuff that you don't need. This is super cool, says the narrator, because it means that he can get a ton of stuff without getting a scratch on himself. He'll be able to use this to his advantage, since he won't have to worry about getting hit by a scorpion. The narrator says that he's going to use the band to get to the end of the chapter, where he can brag about his achievements to other people.
