Lo stops at her cabin to eat the sandwich left for her, to get her strength back. She is still feeling sick, but forces the food down, all the while thinking about who does and does not have an alibi. She tries the internet again, but it's still not connecting. She wonders, with a shudder, if the internet has been intentionally disconnected so she can't call for help. She then leaves to see Richard Bullmer.
At Lord and Lady Bullmer's cabin, Lo knocks, and is startled to see Lady Bullmer inside. Lady Bullmer is crying, and wipes away tears, a bit indignant that Lo is standing there. Lo feels uncomfortable, and asks to speak to Richard (Lord Bullmer), but Lady Bullmer tells Lo that he is in the hot tub with Lars and a few other friends. She tells Lo to find him at dinner, and asks to take a message. Lo declines, and feels uncomfortable–she can't help fixating on Lady Bullmer's gaunt face. Lo makes her way to the hot tub on the upper deck, where she finds Cole, Chloe, Lars, and Lord Bullmer. The fog is so thick she can barely see them. She is invited into the hot tub, but declines, deciding instead to begin telling Lord Bullmer what happened.
