Chapter 22 Summary

Lo wakes up trapped inside a tiny cabin in the lower decks of the ship. There is no window, and the door is locked.

Lo describes the experience of being captured by an unknown assailant. She woke with a start to a banging on her door, and realized she had dozed off with the pillow in her hand, keeping watch in her room. The tapping on the door continued, and she finally went and looked out the fish eye to the hall. Standing there, amazingly, was the woman from Cabin 10. She looked at Lo and then sauntered off, completely unharmed, to the lower decks. Lo ran out the door to catch the woman, and caught the code-locked door to the lower decks just before it shut. As Lo walked down the dark stairs, she was attacked from behind, and her assailant smacked her head on the metal door frame. Everything then went black.

Back in the room, Lo realizes that there is no way to jimmy the door open. It is still Tuesday, based on her best guess, and the engine is going. Either they did not stop in Trondheim or they have left the port. Lo fears that the other guests will assume she got off the ship and did not return, and that no one will come looking for her.
