One night, Quell finds himself in San Francisco and stows away on the yacht of a follower of Lancaster Dodd, the leader of a nascent philosophical movement known as “The Cause”. When he is discovered, Dodd describes Quell as “aberrated” and claims he has met him in the past but cannot remember where. He invites Quell to stay and attend the marriage of his daughter, Elizabeth, as long as he will make more moonshine, which Dodd has developed a taste for. Dodd begins an exercise with Quell called “Processing”, in which he asks a flurry of disturbing psychological questions. During the exercise, Quell reveals details of his past, including his father’s death, his mother’s incarceration in a mental asylum, his killing of Japanese soldiers in the war, and his incestuous sexual encounters with his aunt. He also has a flashback to a past relationship with Doris, a young woman from his hometown whom Quell promised he would one day return to.
Other members of “The Cause” begin to worry about Quell’s behavior. Quell criticizes Dodd’s son Val for disregarding his father’s teachings, but Val says that Dodd is making things up as he goes along. Dodd is arrested for practicing medicine without proper qualifications after one of his former hostesses has a change of heart; Quell attacks the police officers and is also arrested. In jail, he erupts in an angry tirade, questioning everything that Dodd has taught him and accusing him of being a fake.
