Buckthorn and Hazel change shift. Hazel goes to sleep, and the rabbits change shift through out the day. It’s sunset and Hazel wakes to find a dead-eating beetle on Pipkin. He quickly knocks the beetle away and wakes Pipkin. Out of nowhere, a gunshot is fired and the rabbits awakens and run in chaos. Hazel and Silver return first to the place they were sleeping, and the others slowly come back after that. They decided to go over the other side of the field, but Hazel soon stop by the appearance of something new to his eyes. Bigwig recognise it as “the hrududil” (a car). To Hazel this is something completely unfamiliar and strange. Bigwig learns from the old Owsla about the road and “the hrududil”. They are not dangerous during the day, but the lights are so bright at night that they won’t be able to move. The rabbits continue on their path. For quite sometime after when they reach an unfamiliar terrain, Hawkbit, Acorn and Speedwell tell Hazel that they want to go back. Hazel turns around to reply how ridiculously their idea is. Before he can explain, Bigwig yells at them.
Fiver stands above the hill and tells Hazel of the land they need to reach, the path they need to go, to some very far away hills. Fiver warns that they will be in for some trouble along the way but still they must reach the hills. Hazel is frustrated and worried about what they are going to do. Fiver comes back to himself and Hazel tells him to forget it, of what he was talking about.
