PLOT
TIMELINE
1- The cast is now in New York, they attend a party in an apartment building
2- They're all in one room, and Pykes is reading his predictions about everyone. We find out Eleanor only "dated" Karim because Pykes asked her to do it. Karim is, again, humiliated by Pyke
3- Karim attacks Pyke but didn't manage to hurt him (he got hurt instead). Charlie brings him at his place. Later, Karim moves in with him, in his apartment, while the other still stay at the hotel.
4- He starts working as Charlie's "assistant". +Description of Charlie's new life (as a "star"): he gets recognized everywhere, he has a lot of interviews, know a lot of people...
5- As the cast goes back to London, Karim decides to stay here longer, with Charlie.
6- A bit later, Karim wants to go back to London. He can't really bare Charlie anymore (1- Charlie hitting a "journalist", 2- his sexual experiments)
7- Charlie is trying bondage out with Franke, while Karim is watching them.
8- Karim realizes he definitely doesn't like Charlie anymore. He wants to go back in London, Charlie tries to dissuade him, but still ends up giving him money to pay for his ticket.
MOST STRIKING SCENES
Charlie begging Karim to stay with him. Even if the narrator (Karim) said the only reason he's asking him to stay for is to having a witness for his success, but in my opinion Charlie cares a lot more about Karim than he pretends. The roles are reversed again (in the first part, Karim was obsessed with Charlie)

SELECTED QUOTES
"All the same, my depression and self-hatred, my desire to mutilate myself with broken bottles, and numbness and crying fits, my inability to get out of bed for days and days, the feeling of the world moving in to crush me, went on and on."
