"Inside"

What does this mean to you?

"Radiology, Neurology, Magnetic Imaging," she ready softly. "Operating Theatre Two."

Tally is reading theses signs as she walks through Special Circumstances with David. She is remembering how the operation affects your brain, and is seeing that they study that. Radiology could be seeing what type of brain waves you get before and after the operation, to tell the difference. Neurology could be like a cat scan of your brain, and Magnetic Imaging could be how the magnetic fields of the city affect you. This is what I am thinking those mean.

The Labels

In the hall Tally and David come across labels that read, Interrogation room One, Interrogation Room Two, Isolation Room One, and Disorientation Room One. I think the first two interrogation rooms are for questioning people when they come across a problem like they did with Tally. The isolation room is for putting people alone for awhile when they won't cooperate in questioning, and then the disorientation room is for hurting or killing people when they won't cooperate at all.

Shay's Appearance

Shay has just been found pretty by Tally and David. They can't believe it! She is described as, "She was tall and elegant, every feature perfection. Her eyes-deep and soulful.."page 381. Tally is thinking that they turned everyone pretty but then soon finds out that it's not true. She is now knowing how the operation can change a person by Shay's change in personality.
