Margaret becomes frightened upon hearing an ominous howl Michael investigates, retrieving a flashlight and revolver from his car, and later finds Peppy lying dead on the ground. Torgo reveals his attraction to Margaret and tells her that, although she is doomed to become yet another bride of The Master, he intends to keep her for himself. Margaret threatens to tell Michael of Torgos advances, but Torgo convinces her not to say anything to her husband by promising to protect her. Michael returns, unable to start the car.
