Fight Club

When the Narrator arrives at work in the morning, he sees that his office high-rise is the site of another Project Mayhem spree. The windows are blown out, the interior is on fire, and he watches his own desk fall to the pavement below. The Previously, he thought his boss was just on vacation, but now he recalls smelling gasoline on his hands and wishing he could leave his job, and the Narrator fears Tyler took that as permission to kill his boss. Narrator knows his boss is dead. When he fell asleep at his desk, Tyler took control and rigged his computer with gasoline so it would explode.

When the Narrator realizes he is the obvious suspect for the explosion, he does not get off the bus. He keeps riding, and suddenly he notices the bus is full of Project Mayhem members. One has a rag, and the Narrator can smell the ether. He sees the mechanic from before holding a knife, and the men attack him before he has time to react. They intend to cut off his testicles, just like Tyler threatened to do to the Seattle police commissioner. The police arrive, but they are also Project members.
