In this chapter, Kemp and Adye discuss the danger that the Invisible Man poses to society and come up with a plan to catch him. They must prevent him from leaving the district and set a watch on trains, roads, and shipping. The country-side must begin hunting him day and night, and all food must be locked up and secured. The Invisible Man is a danger and a disaster, and unless he is pinned and secured, it is frightful to think of the things that may happen.
