Wells]], returns and gives Chardalot mouth-to-mouth, after which she and the Doctor head back to their room at the [[Hotel Palace Thermae]] with a stuffed [[rhesus macaque]] in [[bride|bridal]] gear anonymously left for Peri with a note of thanks at reception.

At dinner, Miss Bultitude says that she recognised the rhesus macaque as one from a [[shop]] run by [[James Ensor]]'s [[Maria Catherina Haegheman|mother]] and takes Peri to the [[terrace]] when Chardalot lights a [[cigar]].

Peri declines Chardalot's invitation for her and the Doctor to join him in a walk on the [[promenade]] and they help Miss Bultitude get to her room when she claims to be feeling ill, but she admits once upstairs that she is not staying at the [[hotel]] and leads them to the room of [[Toby the Sapient Pig]], whom she has been following around [[Europe]] in the hopes of meeting him and proving his existence. Toby is afraid of the Doctor and has [[Albertine|Nurse Albertine]] stun his three visitors with a [[weapon]] similar to a [[cattle prod]]. He keeps the Doctor and Miss Bultitude in his room whilst Nurse Albertine claims to have found Peri at the bottom of the linen chute, leading Chardalot to begin a search for the missing pair. | |||
