The following morning, James gets ready to go fly fishing until McKay tells him that there are no fish in the river. Richard goes to stay with a friend for a few days, and while he is away James tells Georgina of his love for her. However, Georgina says that she does not love him in that way. James then leaves privately very early the following morning for London. Meanwhile, while looking for the generator Hudson finds a room that has recently been used to prepare fish. During the night he then sees McKay and others poaching fish. McKay and Hudson then come to a "gentlemen's agreement" that McKay will ensure there are fish for James, and the electricity and hot water also soon start to work. McKay also reveals that the noises Ruby heard were made by him.
