In his third report to EUM, Linus reiterates that he feels the children’s isolation on the island is leading to a more intense air of prejudice in the village. Noting that he’s been asked to give more detail about Arthur, Linus discusses each child and the way they’re thriving under Arthur’s care; he says that these positive notes have to do with Arthur because they demonstrate the healing he’s made possible for the children.

Linus wakes in the middle of the night to find his bed floating several feet off the floor. He tries to ignore this, but the bed tilts and drops him onto the floor. When he investigates, he finds that the source of the loud rumbling is the house, in which all of the lights are flashing. He discovers that Lucy is having a nightmare and that it is manifesting in these ways. When he opens Arthur’s bedroom door to help, he sees another flash of orange light. Inside the room, Arthur is kneeling and speaking soothingly to Lucy, who eventually responds and wakes from his nightmare. Linus comforts him matter-of-factly and tells him that his precious records, which have broken, can be glued back together and re-hung on his walls.
