She steps to the other side of the curtain and Simon says, "Voila!" and points to the ground. Lily doesn't see anything. Simon picks up some branches and reveals a hot spring. Lily is elated and she can't wait. Simon steps to the other side of the curtain as Lily undresses. They talk while she gets ready for her bath and Simon can't take it, watching her shadow through the curtain. Lily slips into the bath and she is "oohing" and "aahing" the whole time. Simon is going crazy and he tells Lily that he will leave her to her privacy and he leaves the cave. Lily is relaxing in the hot water and behind her a hand slips under the curtain and takes her clothes. When Lily is finished soaking, she gets out of the water and sees that her clothes are gone. Right away she blames Simon. She starts yelling for Simon and he runs into the cave. When she tells him that it is not funny that he took her clothes, at first, he laughs and then swears that he didn't take her clothes. She asks who could have taken them, they are the only two on the island. Simon jokes that maybe it was some wild animal that stole her clothes. She tells him that it is not funny, she needs clothes to wear, they are not going to start a nudist colony on this island. Simon tells her to wait there and she will sew up something for her. He gets the other parachute and makes her a skirt and top from the material. He passes the material over the curtain to Lily and she puts on the new clothes. When she comes out, Simon's eyes bug out at her. She has tied the top around her to make it look like a bathing suit top and the skirt is down around her hips so she is showing her tummy. She says that she feels pretty good and she is going to take a walk and see if she can find a weasel wearing her clothes. Simon tell her to be careful and she leaves. After she is gone, he picks up her coat and feels something in it. He starts to feel around and finds that there is a hard object in the lining of her coat. He puts his hand in the pocket and finds a hole and puts his hand through it. When is touches the object, he says that it can't be. He pulls the object out of the pocket and finds that it is the diamond that he has been chasing after. He says, "Lily...you...you have been lying to me all along!"
