Page "Nighty Night" Paragraph 13

Three weeks pass, and Jill has escaped the crime scene to live with Glen at his mansion.

Under the pretence of being a Christian she forbids intercourse until their marriage, only to go downstairs one morning to find Glen has invited Gordon ( Michael Fenton Stevens ), the local vicar and friend of Jill, to arrange a wedding.

The vicar explains Jill's neighbours had wondered where she had vanished to, and even suspected she had committed suicide given the strange smell coming from her house.

Jill realises she is about to be found out now Gordon has discovered her, so confesses to murdering her husband to Glen ( although she suggests it was a mercy killing ).

She puts poison in dishes of Angel Delight ( a mousse-like dessert ) and encourages Gordon to eat some.

As he chokes on it she tells Glen that if he loves her he would agree to take the blame for Gordon's and Terry's deaths and persuades him to make a telephone confession to the police.

This done, Jill suggests that they both commit suicide by eating the Angel Delight, and he gives in to her persuasion.

When it is her turn to eat the Angel Delight, she declares, " I'm not really hungry ".

The poison takes effect and Glen drops to the floor.
