Ron reads H.H. Munro's "The Open Window," a masterful short story about deception and the power of suggestion. Nervous visitor Frampton Nuttall receives more than he bargained for when he meets fifteen-year-old Vera during a country visit.

• Frampton visits the Stapleton household on doctor's orders for a "nerve cure"
• Young Vera tells him a tragic tale about her aunt's husband and brothers disappearing in a bog three years ago
• The open window is supposedly kept open in eternal hope for their return
• Frampton is horrified when three figures with guns and a spaniel approach the house
• He flees in terror, unaware that Vera has fabricated the entire story
• The story reveals Vera's talent for creating "romance at short notice"
