Yoshiko thinks the men who want to kill Mrs King’s son have got her. Peter tells her about the man in the department store. He thinks it was Mrs King’s son. A man phones and asks to speak to Mrs King. He says he is Mrs King’s son, Harry. Yoshiko and Peter think he is lying – he isn’t Mrs King’s son. Mrs King phones and asks them to bring her some money.
