Lexi, in human form, comes looking for her brother and forces Tom into the lift with her and it again stops at the thirteenth floor. Stepping out they find they are in the Neverside, a sinister wood full of dark magic, where they find Mrs Hatcher, now an old woman despite having only arrived there a few hours earlier. When Benny and Alicia ask Mervyn, the odd caretaker, where Tom might be he merely tells them that, like so many others, he has 'disappeared'.
