'With you stuck in here, how can you control your creature now?' asks Anna.

"Obviously, I cannot," said Catherine.

Mr. Handy wrote:Agatha escorted Eugene back down to the lounge off the lobby, and then she let Story and the others know that he was ready to receive visitors.
Eugene waits for the others, hoping that that evil witch they brought in is under lock and key.

Phyllis kept quiet even though she had a few choice remarks she could have made; she didn't think it was her place to butt in.

'Well, is there anything we could do to bring it back under control, to help the war effort?' asks Anna.

"You could let me out of here," said Catherine.

Anna looks wearily at Catherine, 'I am afraid that is not within my power. You would need to apply to the superintendent of the sanatorium or appeal directly against your detention. But we might be able to help you outside of the sanatorium, perhaps with this creature'.

"You and I both know that Dr. Stoddard will not release me," said Catherine, "but it is within your power. If you were to pronounce me cured, he would respect your decision."

'I don't think your recent escape and apprehension are going to help with that' sighs Anna.

"Would a sane person trapped in an insane asylum not want to escape?" said Catherine. "It would be insane for me to stay any longer than I had to."

'Let us just say it has not helped your case.' frowns Anna. 'Nothing is going to come of trying to persuade me to let you go, but there is still a chance that we, Madeline and I, can take control of this monster before it hurts someone else'.

Catherine shook her head. "I have to get out of here," she said. "It's the only way."

Anna shakes her head in exasperation and turns to Madeline sadly. 'I am afraid there is nothing more I can do, perhaps you can talk to her'. She steps back and whispers to Phyllis, 'please see if the orderlies have searched her clothes and if anything was found on her'.

"Don't worry, Mother," said Madeline, going to Catherine's side and taking her hand. "You won't be here much longer."

"Oh, I wasn't worried," said Catherine.

Anna hovers in the background to try and overhear Madeline and Catherine's conversation.

"Don't worry, we'll get you out of here," said Madeline.

"If she really wants to help, she'll release me," said Catherine.

Phyllis looks hard at Anna and then shakes her head. She is not going to leave Anna alone with the crazy woman and her daughter. She worries that Anna has somehow been manipulated. Phyllis just sits, holding her handbag and umbrella.

Phyllis Cruckshank,[b]Phyllis[/b] realized exactly what [b]Anna[/b]'s game was. While [b]Catherine[/b] was very manipulative and persuasive, [b]Anna[/b] wasn't fooled for a second. She was just playing along to try to gain [b]Catherine[/b]'s confidence. [b]Madeline[/b] was already utterly convinced that [b]Anna[/b] was on her side, but [b]Catherine[/b] wasn't so easily fooled. She was trying to test [b]Anna[/b], to get her to prove she was genuinely on her side. Nothing short of getting her out of here would prove that to her.

"I suppose I could go and ask the orderlies if you like." Phyllis stands up and walks noisily across the floor. She opens the door and stomps out, pulling the door to but not shutting it. Then she stomps down the corridor to the stairs. Then she turns and walks back quietly to stand outside the door, listening in case Anna gets into trouble. This was an old method she sometimes used at a front door to catch sofa- hiders when she was out collecting for charity.

As Madeline and Catherine say no more, Anna steps forward again, 'you must understand, there is no way you're leaving here by conventional means'. She pauses for a moment, then smiles. 'How did you escape last time?'
