Eddie's behavior has made the stewardess suspicious. From inside Eddie's mind, Roland watches her actions and worries that she will do something to stop Eddie from doing whatever it is he has planned to do. Roland does not completely understand what Eddie is doing, but he knows that Eddie needs to clear the Customs officials without letting them discover the cocaine that is strapped to his body.

The two of them tell the captain what they suspect.
