Emanuel takes Tina to the "Cove of the Blind Fisherman", which she says people fled into while trying to escape the volcano's eruption, even though she has never heard of the cove before. Emanuel hypnotically regresses Tina and plays a recording for Paul. She says that she was the object of Quintillus' affections in ancient Pompeii, but asks "How can I return his love? I am an aristocrat. He is a slave and it is not permitted..." Stopping in mid-sentence, she then describes the eruption of Vesuvius as it is happening. Paul remains skeptical, but Emanuel produces a photo of an ancient sculpture of a woman who looks exactly like Tina. Emanuel says that the woman was the daughter of the Roman senator who owned Quintillus.
