Dante and Virgil walk slowly into the second area of the Camp. As they walk in the notice a long line of men and women starved and shaved and branded with a code on their arm. Each soul is marked with a specific brand to specify who they are. Jews have the star of David while others have letters branded on their backs to identify murderers and gypsies. All of them are in a line towards a giant man in a Nazi uniform. The man has a booming voice and long black whip. He inspects each person one by one and lashes them. The number of lashes they receive indicates the level of the Camp he believes they belong. When it is Dante's turn the Nazi laughs and tells him to turn back, Virgil explains their situation and the Nazi laughs even louder and lets them go. They walk into a dark, damp building, small nozzles are placed along the walls near the ceilings as if it were a deserted shower room. The room begin to fill with naked men and women, among them were Jesse James, Bill Clinton, Tiger Woods and Kristen Stewart. Sad melodic music plays softly in the background and they all begin to cry. The room becomes pitch black as if someone had turned off the little light there was and a hissing sound fills the room. The people are pressed up against one another barely enough room to breath or even stand. They sounds and the music and the darkness drive the people insane and a mass hysteria breaks out and eventually a gas begins to spread around the people like fog, the hysteria grows and the men and women pass out from the fumes and lay in the dark. Dante assumes they are dead (which makes no sense for they are in Hell) and just as he finishes his thought the same people begin to walk into the room as if nothing had happened. In a flash the scene is repeated. Dante, who is overcome with disbelief and pity faints.
Symbols:
Gas: real gas kills you, or in some cases gives off a hypnotic feeling which is the same as the feeling of falling in love with someone who you aren't supposed to.
Mass hysteria: the feelings and the confusion relate a lot to the internal tug of war that goes with having an affair.
Darkness/ Naked: obviously lusty things happen with naked people in the dark.
Repetition of Punishment: no matter what you may promise, love always has a way of coming back again and again, once a cheater always a cheater. The punishment repeats just as their actions will repeat no matter and the feelings will never subside.
People:
Jesse James: Cheated on Sandra Bullock for a tattoo artist
Tiger Woods: Cheated on his wife with multiple women
Kristen Stewart: Cheated on her boyfriend with her movie director
Bill Clinton: Cheated on his wife with another woman
