On the journey there, Eve meets dashing pilot, Harry Burnstow, who is stationed at an airfield near Crythin Gifford. Upon arrival, they are collected by air raid warden Dr. Rhodes, who takes them to Eel Marsh House. Their bus suffers a puncture while travelling through the deserted village, where Eve is confronted by a raving madman, Jacob, who repeats the phrases "Died on Sunday, seen on Monday," "Who will be next? It must be you," and "Don't look! You mustn't look." She runs away from him and reboards the bus after he shatters the window through which he had been speaking.
