Evans cottage - Stokes comes to see Maggie and gives her his card--he urgently needs to speak to her. She invites him to sit down. She's puzzled, wondering what this stranger wants. He heard about her terrifying dream from Julia Hoffman--she's had the same dream, as have a number of other people. He asks her to tell him everything she remembers about the dream, but she just wants to forget the horror of it. Force yourself--it's a matter of life and death, he explains--it's part of a dream curse, which is perpetrated by a series of dreams--the chain must be broken or someone will die. That's incredible, declares Maggie, but he says he's an expert in the occult, and he thinks he can stop the dream. He needs to know about her dream--she may be saving a human life. Standing over a lamp that makes her look very pretty, Maggie describes her dream to Stokes. She recites the riddle to him.[/spoiler]
