He cries hysterically for his lost love. It wasn't nothin' wrong. Lucy escapes from his clutches and hides herself in a small, locked closet in the hovel - a claustrophobic, contained and tightly circumscribed space. As he begins to break down the door with an axe, she whirls and spins around and around, pathetically out of control and in a state of suffering terror in her imprisoned space. She begins to emit full, open-mouthed screams.
Burrows violates the space and breaks through the door, sending wood splinters everywhere.
As he rips through the door to make the opening wider, she crouches down. But he pulls her through the opening, symbolically raping her space by bringing her back into the other room. Lucy is left alone to die on the bed, as Burrows goes to another room and begins drinking. Dying, she gives her last little smile to the world that has been so unkind. Arriving too late, the Yellow Man finds Lucy's dead body.
