Winston is constantly beaten with various weapons until he confesses every imaginable lie. As long as he doesn't believe it, he wins... that's what I used to think. He said that everything he confessed was true in some way or another. Also, I used to think that the real betrayal would be that Winston would stop loving Julia, and that it was simply impossible of happening. During his time in the cell, he had almost forgotten about Julia, thinking of her but not feeling love for her. Is this what Room 101 does? Is this EVEN Room 101? I don't know... It's very confusing. I don't think it is, because on the very next page, a guard says "Room 101" and Winston starts confessing everything all over again. Still confusing by the way. There is one thing that is pretty clear though: Winston heard a voice, the same voice that said that they will meet in the place where there is no darkness. It may not be O'Brian's voice though. This time the voice told him that he has watched over Winston for 7 years, that he "will save him and make him perfect"... Perhaps this is Room 101: O'Brian can send electrical shocks to Winston. He seems to be able to tell what Winston is thinking, and also when he is telling lies... What kind of torture is this???
