After sneaking around the Island, Douglas finds himself chased by Dr. Montgomery and his helpers. With the help of Aissa, he comes upon a secret village occupied by Moreau's creations. He is immediately found by both doctors and held at gunpoint by one of them. Dr. Moreau commands Montgomery, the one who's holding the gun, to give it to Douglas, so he can feel safe.
