Chapter seven is full of irony. Billy gets on a plane that he knows will crash. Vonnegut writes “He knewit was going to crash, but he didn’t want to make a fool of himself by saying so” (Vonnegut 154). He knows that he and the pilot will be the only survivors. Billy doesn’t warn any of the people boarding the plane. He just lets it all happen while he stands by.
