Knowing that Kaplan has a reservation at a Chicago hotel the next day, Thornhill sneaks onto the 20th Century Limited.
On board, he meets Eve Kendall ( Eva Marie Saint ), who hides Thornhill from policemen searching the train.
She asks about his personalized matchbooks with the initials ROT ; he says the O stands for nothing.
They flirt, but are interrupted by police officers boarding the train.
Unbeknownst to Thornhill, Eve is working with Vandamm and Leonard, who are in another compartment.
Upon arriving in Chicago, Thornhill borrows a porter's uniform and carries Eve's luggage through the crowd, eluding police.
Eve ( who is revealed to be Vandamm's lover ) lies to Thornhill, telling him she has arranged a meeting with Kaplan.
She gives him directions to the place.
