Jay is rescued from the shadowy figure by a strange old woman called Maggie Wych, who seems kind and trustworthy, but what sort of woman lives in a rundown old car parked up on a pile of bricks? Mel has been imprisoned in the depths of the EmbroGen laboratory.

The seemingly benign Uncle Harry welcomes Mel and Jay into his home. Mel is wary; she has seen him before – at EmbroGen. She pleads with Jay to leave, but Jay ignores her and steps into Harry's clutches, pulling her in after him.
