She then finds a house producing a great racket and tries to enter.  She meets inside the Duchess, to whom the rabbit alluded, and her baby, actually a pig, whom she beats for sneezing whilst adding excessive amounts of pepper to soup.  The cook, meanwhile, is angry, and throws pots and pans about the room.  Alice leaves, briefly speaks with a grinning Cheshire Cat, and continues on to find a long table.  She sits down to have tea with the Mad Hatter, March Hare, and constantly sleeping Dormouse.  They ridicule each other, particularly Alice when she falsely states that  a statement shares truth-value and meaning with its converse.  She leaves angrily after hearing of the cruelty of the Queen, returns somehow to her hallway with the mushroom pieces, and fits herself through the door into the garden.

This place turns out to be part of kingdom ruled by the Queen of Hearts (a queen obsessed with beheading), staffed by bumbling gardeners and site of a popular [[croquet]] game rigged in the queen's favor, in which the players use [[flamingo|flamingos]] as bats and [[hedgehog|hedgehogs]] as balls.  Alice finds herself unable to play, as the flamingos and hedgehogs will only behave for the queen.  At this point, the Cheshire Cat's head returns, floating, and offends the queen.  It gets Alice sentenced to beheading, but she is pardoned and spends time with the Duchess.  In the next conversation with the Duchess, the Duchess attempts rather illogically to find morals in every statement of Alice's and constantly agrees to Alice's mistakes before Alice corrects herself.  After this, Alice is sent by the queen on a visit to see the Mock Turtle.

Alice is chaperoned by a [[griffon|gryphon]] to see a Turtle.  The great gryphon is faster than Alice and shows her the Mock Turtle, who recounts a sad story.  They have a conversation in which the Turtle lists his the subjects of his undersea school, all of which are words sounding similar to Alice's but different in meaning.  The conversation continues to the gryphon's description of how the Turtle's lessons began ten hours a day, went to nine the second, et cetera, until a holiday on the eleventh.  The gryphon refuses to answer regarding the twelfth, suggesting [[negative numbers]] to the reader.  They then recount a dance, the Lobster Quadrille, and perform for her the dance and two more songs.
