You're right there, odie. According to the wik-o-pedia machine:

The flowers are unisexual, in small plants most if not all the flowers are male, as plants age and grow larger the spadix produces more female flowers. This species flowers from April to June. The fruit are smooth, shiny green, 1 cm wide berries clustered on the thickened spadix. The fruits ripen in late summer and fall, turning a bright red color before the plants go dormant. Each berry produces 1 to 5 seeds typically, the seeds are white to light tan in color, rounded, often with flattened edges and a short sharp point at the top and a rounded bottom surface. If the seeds are freed from the berry they will germinate the next spring, producing a plant with a single rounded leaf. Seedlings need three or more years of growth before they become large enough to flower.

You might as well drop those seeds in the soil, otherwise you'll never see Jack! Planting in the fall or early spring -- like now -- may just get you started....

Well, that's not good news, odie!

If the seeds are freed from the berry they will germinate the next spring, producing a plant with a single rounded leaf. IF you've planted them, 2 summers ago, they would not have gotten any natural 'kick' until the previous year's spring. If you don't see any growth, some squirrel probably has confiscated your seeds......I don't think you can expect to see Jack,... not from that planting!
