Happiness in the new world is paramount. So when Linda and John get their desperately wanted permission to recondition and adapt to the new world, matters of happiness are the very first things that both are encouraged to tend to. Unfortunately for some unlucky new-worlders, the happiness of savages might just lead to the downfall of one of their powerful leaders.
And guess what?
This is exactly what happens.
Linda's entrance is not as glorious as it might've been before. That is, before she'd become one of the savages. Before she'd gained weight and lost teeth and allowed wrinkles to blemish her previously taught face. Her enemy? The very man who did all of this to her in the first place. The director is of course stunned at her return and pretends not to know this beast. Embarrassed, he leaves to never return to power.
Savages: 1
New Worlders: 0
Success for Bernard, however, is only bitter sweet. This small-in-stature Alpha becomes power crazed. Too many girls, and too many parties later, he too comes crawling out of his whirlwind of success.
A list of things that might happen to Bernard is sure to come.
Until then...
Conclusion: What do The Bible, Beauty and the Beast, and Machiavelli's "The Prince" have in common? Why, all were written with Brave New World in mind, of course.
