As the fireworks fizzled out, he spun around and strode back to the cabin, grabbing a cardboard cutout of Lana from an ad, muttering under his breath, "My brother said Lana's gotta swim with the fishes. He said Lana's gotta swim with the fishes..." The crowd was filing back into the cabin when they caught sight of the bizarre scene.

"Skyler, what are you doing?" William asked in disbelief.

Skyler seemed oblivious to his question, clutching the cutout of Lana and moving determinedly toward the deck railing.

"He said Lana's gotta swim with the fishes. He said Lana's gotta swim with the fishes..." Muttering the mantra, he suddenly tossed the cardboard cutout overboard into the sea.

Leopold and Aurelia rushed forward, yanking him back from the edge, fearing he might follow the cutout into the watery depths.

Tanya came running over and cupped his face in her hands, "Oh no, Skyler's having another episode." At that moment, Skyler's whole body trembled violently, as if awakening from a trance, "What's going on? Why are you all staring at me?" "Skyler, you just threw a cardboard cutout into the sea," William explained.

"Skyler, you're having an episode. You need to go back to your room and take your medication," Tanya subtly signaled to Thomas with a glance, who promptly stepped in to assist her with Skyler..

Skyler shook them off forcefully, "I'm not sick. It was him who told me to throw Lana into the sea." He pointed at Thomas and raised his voice, "Today, in the restroom, he came in with his necklace. He asked if | liked it and kept swinging it. Then my head got all fuzzy, and | couldn't see straight, just heard him say when the fireworks start, | need to throw Lana into the sea.

When | heard the fireworks, | couldn't control it. | started searching for Lana, and then | saw her by the cabin door. My hands just acted on their own, tossing her into the sea." "My God, he's been hypnotized." someone in the crowd exclaimed, who happened to be a hypnosis enthusiast.

Thomas went ashen before he spluttered back, "Mr. Skyler, hold on, you've got it all wrong. | haven't done anything, you're just seeing things." Tanya nodded in agreement, "That's right, Skyler. This must be a hallucination. You've been off your medication, and it's causing symptoms." "It's not an episode. | had a similar experience today," Aurelia interjected. "At noon, | met Thomas in the hallway.

He showed me a necklace and asked if | had dropped it. There was a strange scent coming from the necklace, and | felt dizzy after smelling it. Thankfully, William and Skyler came along, and | snapped out of it." Thomas turned deathly pale, completely dumbfounded.

He did try to hypnotize Aurelia to push Lana overboard, but his plan was interrupted by her pesky kid, William.

So he turned to Skyler, planning to have him do the deed.

But instead, Skyler threw a cardboard cutout of Lana overboard. And now, Skyler was recounting the hypnotic session with alarming clarity, which was impossible. Hypnotized people didn't retain their memories.

He couldn't figure it out. It was a mystery beyond his grasp.

Just then, a phone rang, snapping everyone out of the tense moment. Thomas, in a daze, turned and slapped Tanya across the face, "You conniving witch! For your selfish gains, you'd even sacrifice your own family. What are you aiming for? To be the next Lady Macbeth?"
