Section 4: 163-245

• Rosemary no longer has the excruciating pain
• she debates on baby names. The names she now is considering are Douglas, David or Andrew for a boy and Amanda, Jenny or Hope for a girl.
• Hutch dies in his sleep on June 3rd, a Friday.
• When she goes to his memorial she receives a book that Hutch has left for her. She also discovers that he practically forced himself out of his coma because he knew death was upon him to see that rosemary get the book and that she knows that the title of the book is an anagram. She decided to open when she was home and alone. 
• The title of the book was All Of Them Witches by J.R.Hanslet. When she opens the book she finds underlined passages, one was "Devil's Pepper". It is a fungus that Hutch believed to be the Tannis Root from the charm she wears. He also underlined Adrian Marcato. Remembering the information about an anagram, Rosemary, tries to reword the title of the book. She comes short of a conclusion and goes ahead to read the passage Adrian Marcato where she learns about his son Steven, which is also underlined. She reads the bit about Steven and also tries to reword it, she does so until Steven Marcato transforms into Roman Castevet. She realizes that Roman is actually Steven, Adrian Mercado's son. 
• Rosemary infers that the Castevet's and all of their friends are all apart of a coven, "all of them witches". She also begins to suspect her husband, Guy.
• When Guy returns home Rosemary tells of her day and how Hutch left her the book. He pretty much tells her she's over reacting even though he comes to believe the part about Roman actually being Adrian Marcato's son, Steven. He takes the book from her and promises her she can read it another day, that she is too tired.  
• Rosemary goes to the doctor where she discovers from Dr.Sapirstein that Roman doesn't have very long to live and that the Castevet's are leaving to travel to Roman's favorite places in the world before he dies. Rosemary is somewhat happy to hear of this and the doctor suspects this much.
• Later Mrs. Castevet comes to confirm what she already knows about their departure. They help them pack and see them off.
• While out, Rosemary sees Dominick Pozzo, Guys once upon a time voice coach. She thanks him for the tickets she got from him to see the Fantasticks, a play. he tells her that he did not give Guy those tickets as she thought. 
• When she returns home she asks Guy about the tickets and wonders where he really got them. She wonders about Guys sudden success, why Guy threw away her book and concludes that he is one of "them". She reluctantly starts to believe that he is part of the coven.
• She throws away the charm with the Tannis Root certain that there is some sort of magic tied to it, Devil's Pepper.
• Later, Rosemary, packs her things and goes to see Dr. Sapirstein and when the receptionist noticed that Rosemary doesn't spell odd because of the root, the receptionist slips in that Dr. Sapirstein smells of the same thing only stronger. Rosemary then quickly gathers her things and leaves.
• She calls Dr. Hill and begs to see him; he agrees. When she doe see him she tells him of her predicament and tells her that he will help and try to get her into Mount Sinai Hospital quickly if he can. He tells her to lay on the day bed and rest a while.She wakes up with Guy and Dr. Sapirstein around her and they forcibly bring her home although she is in disbelief. She just looks act Dr.Hill; she couldn't believe he did this. Rosemary, once home, tries to lock everyone out and is briefly successful. They eventually get through the bolted door and gives Rosemary a sedative without her permission; she also begins to go into labor. 
• When she wakes up and asks for the baby they tell her that the baby,a boy, died of complications but was otherwise healthy. She doesn't believe them and they give her another sedative and she goes to sleep. When she still questions them they tell her that she is suffering from a "post-loosing-the baby" syndrome. 
• Rosemary still produces breast-milk and Laura-Louise helps her by providing her a breast pump machine. Laura-Louise also takes the milk after she is done.
• Rosemary starts to notice a baby crying and guy tells her that there are people on the eighth floor who just moved in and have a baby. Rosemary does not believe him because she has started to notice a sequence in which her breast are pumped when the crying stops and shortly after she is finished and the milk brought out, the crying ceases. She also decides that the crying is in fact coming from her floor, the seventh floor.
• She stops taking the medicine that they give her daily and hide it under her mattress.
• She decides that her baby is alive and that she will rescue him.
• She remembers that her apartment was once apart the Castevet's and remembers the secret pass way through the fifth closet in her apartment. She infers that the baby is being kept in the Castevet's apartment.
• When it is Leah's turn to watch over Rosemary, Rosemary slyly puts the eleven pills she refused to take into Leah's coffee. When Leah falls asleep, she grabs a knife and makes her way into the secret passage way and into the Castevet's apartment. She hears Mrs. Castevet's voice and then sees Roman. She concludes that they never did go to Europe. She sees the baby in a black bassinet. She is also spotted by someone and they act as if nothing is out of the ordinary. Rosemary sees Guy, she also sees a painting on the wall that reminds her of her dream the concludes that it wasn't a dream but reality. She goes over to the baby and marvels over his features until the baby opens his eyes. The baby's eyes are not normal and when she asks what they have done they say he has his father's eyes. She tells them that Guy has brown eyes. They go on to tell her that Satan is the baby's father. They tell her that the baby's name is Adrian Steven, after Adrian and Steven (Roman) Marcato. When Guy finally approaches her he pleads with her that this whole event did more good for them than bad and that they promised nothing bad would happen to her. She spits on him. While they go on and converse, Rosemary quietly thinks to herself a plan, she contemplates if she will throw the baby out the window and herself after it. She learns that they brought forth the baby so that he can do evil. They chant and say "Hail Satan" and say that God is dead and that Satan is the living Lord. She thinks she has to save the world for a moment. She's distracted by Laura-Louise's rampant rocking of the baby and asks to rock the baby herself. Laura- Louise is rude and Roman tells Laura-Louise to back off because the child is in fact Rosemary's baby also. Rosemary comes to be fond of the baby and have no problem it she decides to herself that the reason she was so angry at its' appearance is because she was shocked. She tries to comfort the baby and informs him that she is his mother. She tells him that his name will be Andrew John Woodhouse. Roman at first has a problem with it but soon gets past it. They all chant "Hail Satan", "Hail Andrew", and "Hail Rosemary". She tries to get Andrew to smile for her and another member of the coven videotapes the event.

After reading this concluding section I've decided that Rosemary so desperately wanted to have this baby that she was willing to do anything to keep that hope alive. Even though she tried and failed to go about this happening the best she could she still had the baby and after discovering the whole truth still made herself okay with this peculiar situation. This portion of the novel proves to me her determination to be a mother.

Additional Thoughts:

What additional happenings in this novel affect your life? Explain using examples.

Nothing in this book directly relates to my life; however, personally I do believe that things such as devil-worshiping and witchcraft exist. We lean about the Salem Witch Trials in school, the Voodoo religion among cultures as well as see such customs and beliefs portrayed all over television; we see this both in programs shown merely for entertainment as well as informative programs such as the Discovery Channel and History Channel. One might be left to believe such things are to an extent conceivable based on the threads of evidence before them. I am an example of such people; I believe such happenings exist; however, I do not practice them.

What Character is most like you? Why? Give evidence.

Hutch is the character who is most like me. When things aren't clearly explained or obvious,we both rely on intuition and knowledge to draw conclusions.In the novel, Hutch does nit with for Rosemary to move into the Bramford. He later questions her appearance when she is pregnant and looks sickly. He question's Roman, the black candles, and later uses his knowledge to make a conclusion which he tries to pass on to Rosemary.

What major events help to resolve the plot?

The major events that helped to resolve the plot where, number one, Rosemary's dream where she dreams she was intimate with a non-human being I believe that this was not in fact a dream but reality. Secondly, the Tannis Root charm that Mrs. Castevet gave Rosemary for good luck. I found it strange to give the belonging of the deceased, recently deceased at that, to someone else, someone who was not well known to the deceased. third, Hutch's sudden illness was a clue. Hutch had suddenly fallen ill when we wanted to share some information to her about what might actually be going on with her. All of the above happenings led me to believe that there was a conspiracy against Rosemary and her unborn child.

What message did you get from this novel? How was it conveyed?

The message I got from this novel was that sometimes people are willing to do and convince themselves of the most extreme things to benefit themselves in any way they can. Rosemary carried around the Tannis Root charm because she believed that it brought her good luck. She went along with Dr. Sapirstein's ridiculous treatments because she whole- heartedly wanted to believe that what she was experiencing throughout her pregnancy was normal. When the baby was born and she saw and learned of the baby's devilish features she pretty much convinced herself that it wasn't that bad. She let no obstacle break her hopes of becoming a mother. 

Why would or why would you not recommend this book to others? Be specific with examples.

I would recommend this book to others because it allows you to make your own inferences and assumptions as well as draw your own conclusions. Te pace of the novel steadily increases. The book provides a plethora of descriptive information and steady's the pace and as the book goes along and you learn more information the story speeds up and becomes more suspenseful. The book will have you thinking one thing and then another will happen. When I finsihed the book I was left with my jaw- dropped and wondering what was going to happen next. Levin, even after the story is finishes, leaves his audiences wondering and questioning what each character will do next. Reading this novel is like watching a movie, sometimes you can safely infer what will happen next and sometimes you will be wrong leaving you enticed and making you want to indulge yourself further into the story until the end. This story, from the beginning until the end, makes you want to read it from cover to cover.
