What something's interesting that happen in The Giver, Chapter 20?

In Chapter 20, Jonas had a tantrum on the couch. "I won't go home you can't make me!" he kept screaming. The Giver said he'd allow him to stay there that night. He then called his secretary and asked her to notify Jonas's family unit. Jonas kept going on about how his Father had lied to him. He was also worried about Fiona and how she'd take the release thing. The Giver informed him that Fiona was already schooled in the ways of release. As they ate they concocted a plan for Jonas to escape to elsewhere. Jonas asked the Giver to come with him again and again, but the giver knew with Jonas gone the people would need someone to turn to.

The next morning Jonas went home to his family cheerfully lying about being busy all night. In school Jonas went over the plan in his head over and over. Over the next two weeks the Giver would transfer every memory of courage and strength he could. They would hoard food and Jonas would leave at midnight.
