IC-Ep 4-The Familiar Stranger(Salem Shields/Tinker)
The Ship Inn - Dunwich, England
3:55 PM - Thursday, September 5, 1985
Salem ran through the woods, but his pursuers could see him and were not shaken off of his tail. He had to break cover in order to enter the car park behind the Ship Inn, arriving at the same time as the strange woman. Now he could see that she held an odd-looking device in her right hand:
She ran right for the Model T. "Hey stranger, get your ass in gear and get in!" she called to Salem. She tried the door to the antique car, which was thankfully unlocked. The constables and Horsham were running closer, only about twenty yards distant.

There was no time to ask any question, Salem squeezed into the car with the mysterious woman and still taken aback by the events that have transpired.
The other children cheered him on. His name voiced in a steadily rising pace, urging him to do it. “Am I really doing this?”, the young boy thought and struck his victim with a rock.
Re: IC-Ep 4-The Familiar Stranger(Salem Shields/Tinker)
The woman activated her device near the ignition, and the motor began to purr. It was similar to how Story had started the Land Rover earlier, and it made the same sound - though the woman did not hear it. She started to pull out as the men chasing Salem entered the car park and were now just ten yards away. "If you're talking to me right now," she said, "I can't hear a thing. Which way do we go? Just point. I'd like to get to the cottage of that author, Virgil Soames, if we can."

Salem gave a confused look when Tinker gave him that answer. Frantically looking around the windows and establishing his orientation, Salem points the way towards the cottage.

Salem points the way towards the Rose Cottage, not quite sure if it's the one Tinker had in mind.

Salem pointed west down St. James's Street.

Tinker guns the car down St. James street, given the opportunity she will hit one of the pursuers, and follows Salem's directions.
She shouts a little louder than she means to,

Tinker drove west down the street. The men chasing them had been behind the inn, so there was no way to run them over without doubling back. The car went past the Dunwich Museum and was soon halfway down the length of the street. The policemen and Horsham were still visible in the distance behind them, running down the road. Up ahead was a red public phone booth, on the north side of the street.

Re: IC-Ep 4-The Familiar Stranger(Salem Shields/Tinker)
The day couldn't get any stranger. Salem was surprised to hear Tinker knew his name, and how she know he'd have a gun. Well, lost his gun. Salem kept pointing at the Rose Cottage as the bullet still uncomfortably lodged in his back.
The other children cheered him on. His name voiced in a steadily rising pace, urging him to do it. “Am I really doing this?”, the young boy thought and struck his victim with a rock.

After the bizarre exchange of familiarity, Salem looks over her shoulder to see if his pursuers are still on his tail, praying that he finally caught a break.

With the constables still visibly behind them Tinker won't stop. "We can't stop here, plus I didn't see any weapons at Dr. Strong's cottage last time.
Tinker will veer to the south at the first given opportunity, knowing that the beach and no escape is in the north.

Re: IC-Ep 4-The Familiar Stranger(Salem Shields/Tinker)
Tinker drove onwards to the west. Past Dr. Strong's cottage, the north side of the street gave way to marsh. Soon they reached an intersection, just past a church and graveyard on the left, with Westleton Road leading northwest and south as well as an unmarked dirt trail leading west. At this point their pursuers could barely be seen, not far past the museum.

Unfamiliar territory, neck high in trouble and behind enemy lines, Salem wasn't quite sure where they were on the roads.

"I wish I spent more time studying the maps..." Tinker says as she makes her decision.

"Well my gut's tellin' me south. Though my guts also have a tendency to be in the wrong place lately... hell with it. Let's go." Tinker spins the wheel and veers the old car southwards.
