He talks to the students about the small, stifling, and overpopulated homes in which people lived. That being said, he has decided to speak to them about human history. First he quotes Our Ford by saying "History is bunk." The Controller feels that all events which occurred before the World State was established should be wiped away. The Controller takes over the discussion on history. Instead of the Director answering them, the Resident Controller for Western Europe, Mustapha Mond, answers, he tells them that it was terrible.
The students enquire what the result of this suppressed behavior was. In the time before Ford, sex was not considered normal until a person was at least 20 years old. He informs them that erotic play was, in the time before Ford, considered abnormal, the students laugh at this notion. The Director starts to tell the students about their history. Chapter three begins with the students watching children engaging in games and erotic play.
