Th pain memory that The Giver gives him starts out the same as the first memory he ever got, the sledding memory. But in this memory, Jonas crashed and experiences the pain of a bone fracture, vomit, and blood.
Jonas learns what he will be used for once he is officially the only Receiver. He learns that the community will come to him in advice and that he would have to make some pretty strong decisions that the community depended on.
The newchild sleeps in Jonas's room one night and when Gabriel wakes up crying, Jonas decides to transport a calming memory into him. Right away, the newchild calmed down. I don't think this was a good idea, for Jonas to give him a memory, because right away Gabriel is becoming different from everyone in his community. If he continues to receive memories, he will no longer belong there. Did you think it was a good idea for Jonas to do that?
Jonas went to the Giver one day and right away saw that he should leave since the Giver was in pain. But then, he decides to ask the Giver if it would help to take some of the pain. Jonas lays on the bed and the Giver gives him the memory. Jonas is not acquainted with war. The pain is too much for Jonas to take and he is overwhelmed. Jonas did not want to go back but he knew he had to, so he did.

Bathtub
Joans washed the Old in bathtubs and he had a dream about giving Fiona a bath. In Gathering Blue Kira was excited to have running water and be able to clean herself...
