Kate receives a letter from a Mr. Donald Dobble stating that he and his friend and business colleague would like a reservation for two rooms. Mr. Dobble's friend, Mr. David Benton, arrives, and says that Mr. Dobble is with him, but Kate sees no one but Mr. Benton. Despite Mr. Benton seeming crazy to Kate since he sees and talks to an "invisible" man, Kate checks them in to the two reserved rooms. Her stance is that Mr. Benton is probably overworked and needs some much needed rest and relaxation. But as time goes on, Kate is wondering if she is the one going crazy for not being able to see Mr. Dobble. She feels this way as although Uncle Joe and the girls haven't seen him either, they have never been in a situation with Mr. Benton talking directly to Mr. Dobble in the room and they don't seem overly concerned that they have yet to see Mr. Dobble. So Kate tries at whatever opportunity to sneak a peak at or speak directly to Mr. Dobble, instead of just seeing the indirect implications that a Mr. Dobble is indeed there. Is Kate fighting a losing battle in trying to see the elusive and perhaps non-existent Mr. Dobble?
