Ending of 1984?

Although many recent events have made me want to believe that Winston and Julia will not be captured, I find that my theory that they will be is correct. O'Brien, even though very convincing, seems to know too much and be too willing to bring in new members to the brotherhood to be trustworthy. If he is really who he says he is, it seems impossible that he would have so much knowledge about the past, which is something that only the Inner Party and High Class have access to.

Secondly, chapter nine was VERY long and drawn out. Even though the start of the chapter where Julia and Winston are captured was surprising and unexpected, I feel as though Orwell may have ruined the moment of climax by adding in chapter nine. I was very surprised to learn that Mr. Charrington was a member of the thought police, however I did expect that there may have been a hidden telescreen in the room above his shop.

It is because of both Wintson and Julia's underestimation of the Party control that I feel that things will not work out as nicely as they planned. Although both confess to each other that they will always be in love regardless of the torture, I feel that Julia will place the blame on Winston in order to save herself. This act would only further prove her as a "rebel from the waist down" only. With this said, I also believe that O'Brien will reveal himself to Wintson as a leader of the Inner Party, which will inevitably cursh all hope that Winston may still be holding onto. The line from the St. Clements song "here comes the chopper to chop off your head" will become reality, thus ending the novel.

Basically, my theory is that O'Brien is not who he claims to be, Winston will be murdered, and Julia will be punished but eventually set free.
