Chapter 4:
Billy Pilgrim is in bed with his wife and he awakens. He can't sleep and goes into his backyard where the Tralfamadorians take him into their ship. From there Billy time travels back and forth from preset day to the war and back to when he was a baby. When he was in the war they talked about how no one wanted to sleep around Billy because he whimpers, kicks, and screams. Billy asks one of the Tralfamadorians why they picked him and they simply said, "Well, here we are, Mr. Pilgrim, trapped in the amber of this moment.."
Chapter 5:
Billy is back on the ship and asks the Tralfamadorians if they had anything to read. He began to look at some of their own books in amazement. He then travels back in time to when he was a boy visiting the Grand Canyon with his parents then back in time again to the war. They stop at Englishmen's cabins where they stay to eat and sleep. Billy travels back and forth from the war to the mental hospital he is in. Billy traveled back to the Tralfamadore zoo where he was being watched by thousands of them. He had been on their planet for six months. Billy talks to the guide about life there in Tralfamadore and how life is on Earth for Billy. He traveled back to when he was marrying Valencia. Then traveled again back to the zoo where the Tralfamadores brought him a girl to mate with for all the Tralfamadores to see. Then went back in time to his office where a patient said he was going crazy.
