The woman gives birth to a tumor. Noemí worries that the Doyles are after Catalina's bank account. Dr. Cummin expresses annoyance at what he considers Noemí being “agitated”. Virgil also admits he was previously married to Arthur’s daughter. Virgil expresses annoyance at Noemí’s father’s suggestion that they employ a psychiatrist to help. While I might not have fallen completely head over heels in love with it, I have to admit that it does so many things incredibly well. (The Doyles were once a wealthy family but their money has run out.) I was surprised it was a horror novel too! He’s surrounded by poor townsfolk and a priest. Noemí regrets not killing Virgil when she had the chance. Noemí screams for help, and Mr. Cummins is called.
