On a lonely heath at dusk Mrs Kuppins and Mr Peters encounter a sleeping, disheveled gentleman on a hillock. The man lies with a bottle in hand as a trap nears, stirring curiosity and unease. Peters, a benevolent detective, weighs the strange scene and the silhouetted figure against a crimson sunset. The story shifts toward a tense pause as the party considers waking the sleeper.
