The narrator wakes up in the middle of the night and realizes that he has to crawl through the hole in the wall of his room to get to sleep. He's exhausted and wants to go back to sleep, but the narrator refuses to leave his room. He tells the narrator that he's free to sleep in his room if he wants, and the narrator tries to convince him to leave. The narrator tells him that he looks at all the pictures on the wall and decides that he is going to hit the sack. He thanks the narrator for everything he has done today, and he tells him to treat his cousin the same way he treats his own. He goes on to say that he hopes the narrator doesn't forget his purpose in life, and that the next morning he won't get a wink of sleep.
