IC-Ep 3-They're Coming to Take Her Away(Everyone)
Ruined House- London, England
7:25 AM - Tuesday, September 10, 1940
Maggie Duncan came around the corner, leading two ambulances and Anna and Archie. Everyone else was waiting there. Catherine Exeter still lay bound, gagged, and sedated on the ground. Eugene was once again able to walk around, but his skin remained in its prior condition.
Two orderlies emerged from the ambulance from Maxwell's Sanitorium and went over to take Catherine into custody, while Irene Carpenter and Florence Bryant emerged from the other ambulance, which had come from St. Bartholomew's Hospital. "Hello again!" said Irene cheerfully, recognizing at least some of those gathered here. When they reached Eugene, Florence gasped. "Was it gas?" she asked. "It looks like it might be a blister agent, like mustard gas." Eugene just shook his head.

Elizabeth smiles and waves in response to Irene's greeting, grateful to see a familiar face. She listens to Irene's conversation with Eugene, while keeping an eye on the other ambulance workers with interest, curious about how they handle Catherine, and still scared that the woman might get free.

"Well, at least nobody's died this time," said Irene.
"How did this happen to you?" Florence asked Eugene.
"That witch did this to me!" shouts Eugene, pointing at Catherine.
"What did she do, throw chemicals in your face?"
"No, she cast a spell on me!"
The orderlies picked up Catherine, who was still unresponsive, and carried her to their ambulance, where they placed her in the back.

"I think somebody should go with Mrs Exeter. I'm sure those orderlies know their business but they don't know Mrs Exeter. I'm happy to go along. And don't forget that Anna is still a target. She shouldn't be left alone either." Says Phyllis.
Re: IC-Ep 3-They're Coming to Take Her Away(Everyone)
Archie shakes his head. "Not me, I'm afraid. Anna has a fine automobile and we want to find the Steadmans. I believe Mrs Exeter is under control for the moment but they most certainly are not."
Re: IC-Ep 3-They're Coming to Take Her Away(Everyone)
"I'll travel with Mrs Exeter. It's the least I can do in light of my in action back there." Story offers a troubled, half hearted smile. He looks at Elizabeth and cryptically says, "Things for me may well change before this is over. Perhaps our encountering Mrs Exeter is a full circle sort of moment. Anyways..." He smiles with renewed life and turns to head towards the ambulance.

Phyllis nods and says to Archie, "I'm too old to be chasing around here after the Steadmans. I'd rather sit in the Ambulance and have a cup of tea at the hospital. Good luck though; I'll send a message to the church to say we've arrived safely. Are you coming, Maggie?" She asks her old friend and then hurries after Story and climbs into the ambulance.

"I'll come too," says Elizabeth to Story, and follows him in to the ambulance. "Much as she gives me the creeps I'd feel somewhat safer there right now."
Re: IC-Ep 3-They're Coming to Take Her Away(Everyone)
"I'm with you too," said Brook, following Story and Elizabeth, while Maggie went to join Phyllis.
"Hang about," said one of the orderlies. "There's not enough room for all of you lot back there."
His partner glanced at Catherine's bindings. "Never knew she was a biter," he said, examining the gag. "Still, she is known to be dangerous. Probably best not to ride with her, even trussed up like she is. We'll get her back to the sanitarium and get her in a straitjacket toot sweet, as the French say."
"This almost looks like it's caused by mustard gas or something," said Florence. "Was there gas?"
"No, I'm telling you, it was the witch!" said Eugene.
"Maybe he should go to the sanitarium too," Irene said to Florence, lowering her voice.
"I'm not getting in the ambulance! It's too dark in there. I've got my own car."

"Surely there's room for two or three of us? Mrs Exeter and I go way back. Ever since her husband passed a few years ago..." He trails off and then looks directly at the orderly, "Surely there's room?"

"Well, all right," said the second orderly. "The three of you can ride with her. Your daughters won't take up too much room."

Anna turns to Archie: 'well, Reverend Pennyfeather, where shall we start looking for the Steadmans? Do you think it would be imprudent to pay another visit to their house or is there a less direct, and perhaps safer path? I rather think we need to make some progress in daylight'
Re: IC-Ep 3-They're Coming to Take Her Away(Everyone)
"I think it would be a good idea to have another look in their house. If we wait too long, perhaps the trail might go cold..." Benjamin remarks.
Re: IC-Ep 3-They're Coming to Take Her Away(Everyone)
"You can't expect us old ladies to walk! Either we ride in the back or upfront with you." Phyllis looks sternly at the orderly. "I don't mind which."
Re: IC-Ep 3-They're Coming to Take Her Away(Everyone)
To Anna and Benjamin, Archie answers, "My feeling is a direct approach. Start by returning to their house."
Re: IC-Ep 3-They're Coming to Take Her Away(Everyone)
"I'm sorry, ma'am," said one of the orderlies. "There's just no more room."
"It's all right, ladies," said Irene to Phyllis and Maggie. "We'll give you a ride in our ambulance. It's on our way back anyway."
Eugene got into his car, while Story and his companions got in the back of the sanitarium's ambulance with the dozing Catherine Exeter. Irene and Florence helped Phyllis and Maggie into the back of theirs. Archie and Benjamin got into Anna's car with her.
