What is the pain Jonas and The Giver hatch?
The plan is that Jonas leaves with his "Memories." I think they will slip away the further away he flees and closer to Elsewhere and the "Memories" will go back to the Community and everyone Receives them. I think Jonas and The Giver think that everyone in their Community will feel the pain they had to feel when the painful Memories were transfered. This will most likely kick reality into gear in the Community. Hope this helped! :)
