- Here comes a dark period in Rousseau's life. Hang onto your hats, Shmoopers.
- After heading to Geneva, Rousseau learns that he's not welcome there. His book is burned and a warrant is issued for his arrest—bad times.
- As Rousseau flees for safety, he starts realizing that Therese isn't that into him.
- Rousseau arrives at Motiers, where he hopes to hole up for a while.
- The people of Motiers are hostile to him, though. They try to get the State Council to prosecute him.
- The Sorbonne even passes a degree of censure against Rousseau. Things are just really not going well.
