| 5 | * Comrade Snarky wakes up after being thought dead and eats some of the flesh her 'friends' cut off of her. |
| 6 | --> "You fed me my own ass?!" |
| 7 | * 'Hot Potting' is probably the most horrifying story in this book. After several descriptions of people falling into hot springs and dying horrible, horrible deaths, the Baroness Frostbite tells her own story. A religious chef wandered off to the hot springs, slipped, and fell partially in. He was able to climb out, but ended up pulling off half his flesh and lower body in the process. [[FromBadToWorse Then the wolves come]]. Only gets worse knowing people have died that way in real life, although the anecdotes in the story are probably false. |
| 8 | * 'Speaking Bitterness'. [[SurvivalMantra Keysdon'tgotherekeysdon'tgothereKEYSDON'TGOTHERE...]] |
| 9 | * 'Guts', which amongst other things includes a teenage boy getting wax stuck in his bladder as well as another boy accidentally having most of his "large intestine sucked out of his rectum" while being dangerously close to drowning. In order to save his own life, he winds up having to ''chew through his own intestines'' in order to get free of the suction. ''This is the first story in the book.'' |
| 10 | * 'Obsolete', the last story, starts with a family, including two teenagers and a dog, getting into their car for a long trip. It turns out that they're actually staying in the garage, running the engine in order to inhale carbon monoxide and asphyxiate, as part of a world-wide suicide pact brought about by alleged proof of a paradise after death. And most people in the world have already committed suicide, or been killed by "Compliance Squads" when they refused. |
