Seventeen year old Holden Caulfield, who is in a sanatorium, remembers "that crazy story that happened last Christmas," after which he "almost gave the ends", long sick, and now he is undergoing treatment and hopes to return home soon.
His memories start to the day, when he retired from Pansy, a closed school in Egerstaune, Pennsylvania. Actually he went against his will - he was expelled for academic failure - of the nine subjects in that quarter, he flunked five. The situation is complicated by the fact that Pansy - not the first school that leaves the young hero. He had already thrown Elkton Hill, because, in his opinion, "there was one big fake." However, the feeling of being around him, "lime" - hypocrisy, pretense and showing off - do not let Caulfield throughout the novel. Both adults and peers, with whom he found to cause irritation in him, but only he remains unbearable.
The last day of school is full conflict.

The case ends with a fight and a broken nose Caulfield.
Once in New York, he realizes that he can not come home and tell his parents that he was expelled. He gets into a cab and went to the hotel.

Taxi Driver, of course, surprised by the question and wondered if not laughing at him by the passenger. But he does not think to mock, however, the question about the ducks, rather, a manifestation of a loss to Holden Caulfield complexity of the world, rather than an interest in zoology.
This world and oppresses him, and pulls. With people it would be hard without them - is intolerable. He is trying to have fun in a night club at the hotel, but nothing good comes out of it, and the waiter refused to give him the alcohol as a minor. He goes to the night club in Greenwich Village, where he loved to visit his older brother DB, a talented writer, the lure of a big fee screenwriter in Hollywood. On the way, he asks about the ducks next to the taxi driver again without getting a clear answer. At the bar, he meets a familiar DB with some sailor. Maid makes him such hostility that he quickly leaves the bar and goes on foot to the hotel.
Hotel attendant asked if he would like a girl - five dollars at the time, fifteen at night. Holden agrees "on time", but when a girl appears in his room, finds the strength to give up their innocence. He wants to talk to her, but she came to work, and as long as the client is not ready to meet the demands from him ten dollars. He recalled that the treaty was about five.
