Lombard wakes up later than usual and realizes that no one has called him for breakfast. He quickly concludes that Mr. Rogers has gone missing. Lombard gathers the party together to inform them of Mr. Rogers’s disappearance.

Eventually Emily Brent enters the house wearing a mackintosh and informs them she was out taking a walk along the island by herself. Blore finds this suspicious.
In the dining room, Justice Wargrave notices that Mr. Rogers laid the table for breakfast. Vera notices with a panic that now there are only six china figures on the table.
The group finds Mr. Rogers shortly after in the washhouse where he was chopping sticks for the kitchen fire. He is dead, having been hit in the head with an axe.

The group looks at her, confused by her sudden bout of hysteria, and she points out that the murders are mimicking the nursery
