The old man and his friends beat Alex until police arrive to break up the fight.
By chance, he is spotted by the scholar he assaulted years earlier. In Part Three, Alex returns to his home and finds that his parents have replaced him with a lodger named Joe. He is brought in front of an audience and assaulted, but his aversion to violence makes him unable to fight back. One film, which plays Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony over footage of Nazi war crimes, makes Alex especially furious, because it causes him to associate his favorite music with visceral sickness. He is restrained in a chair that makes it impossible for him to close his eyes or turn away from these films, and even though the violence begins to viscerally sicken him, the doctors simply subject Alex to film after film. Branom, Alex is given injections and forced to sit through hours of violent films. The Minister of the Interior decides Alex will receive the experimental treatment-Reclamation Treatment-that the chaplain alluded to earlier. This beating proves fatal, and the other cellmates blame Alex. He tries to molest Alex, and Alex and his cellmates take turns beating him in retaliation. Later that day, a new prisoner is introduced to Alex’s cell. The chaplain mentions a procedure, which deprives criminals of their ability to choose to misbehave. In prison, Alex works for the prison chaplain. Alex is serving a fourteen-year sentence in the State Jail (“Staja”). Part Two begins two years after Part One.
The next day, in police custody, Alex learns that his attack on the old woman has killed her. He hears sirens and attempts to escape, but Dim strikes him in the eyes and the rest of the droogs abandon him to be captured. The woman and her cats attack him, and he retaliates brutally. The boys then decide to rob an elderly woman’s house. Alex fights them, prevails, and resumes his role as leader. That evening, Georgie and Dim inform Alex that they will no longer tolerate his abusive leadership. Deltoid, visits his house to caution him against misbehaving, but Alex ignores him. Later that night, Alex’s domineering behavior offends his droogs after the droogs don't act respectfully as some music is being performed. They rape the wife in front of the husband and destroy the husband’s manuscript for a book called A Clockwork Orange. After a gang fight, the droogs break into a young couple’s country cottage. Later, the droogs come across a rival gang-leader named Billyboy. The group decides to rove the streets, and they beat and rob an elderly scholar. In a strange slang dialect that mixes non-English words and elevated diction, Alex recounts hanging out with his three “droogs,” Dim, Pete, and Georgie.
