The Invisible Man heads into the countryside. The police try to arrest the man but he takes off his clothes, to become completely invisible, and escapes. He tells her that he is invisible and removes his false nose and beard and takes off his bandages to prove it. Some of the furniture then seems to come alive and forces the couple out of the room.

Not surprisingly, he soon attracts the attention of the locals. He appears to be very reclusive, demanding to be left alone and only going out at night.
