The third and final episode begins with Ethan's return to Adam's Point after taking some of the guests to Caleb's Cove in order to lesson the danger that might engulf them. After the disappearances of the McCutcheons and the Holms, he thought it was a wise move to make until he could unravel the mystery of their disappearances.
Ethan had deposited the four couples in the Bed and Breakfast motels in Caleb's Cove and asked Tom, one of the Sheriff's men to watch over them until he could return for them. And seeing that they were safely established within their rooms bid them good-bye and headed back to Adam's Point, promising that he would return with the others as soon as he found them.
He was in a hurry to return to the Point because he didn't like leaving Abigail alone. It wasn't that he didn't trust the people he left her with. He didn't trust the house. It tried to make her a part of it before, not once but twice, and he wasn't about to let it happen again. He knew she wasn't really alone there were three other couples with her along with Tony who would never let anything happen to her. Still, he wasn't there and he wanted to get back to her as quickly as he could. He knew the strange happenings and disappearances of two couples from the Inn had really shaken his remaining guests. Even if they didn't leave with the others who were quick to take Ethan up on his offer, they were still unnerved. They had decided to stay with Ethan, Abigail and Tony instead of going aboard the Abigail for a half-hour sail to the small village of Caleb's Cove and what was considered safety.
