The Dedham ordeal has softened his hostility, but when Bannister indulges Thomasine by letting her go for a swim, she is snatched and dragged away to a ransacked church. Bannister can't let someone else try her before he reaches Chelmsford and the Witchfinder General. When he attempts to get her back, he discovers the man putting her on trial is none other than Matthew Hopkins himself. Has he finally met his destiny? Either way, he no longer needs Thomasine.
