The story so far: Estella arrives in London and Pip meets her coach. Orlick has secretly followed her, and so learns Pip's address. In a tavern, he falls in with Compeyson - the man with the scar captured on the marshes. Compeyson employs Orlick to hunt down Abel Magwitch, the convict Pip helped - he knows that Magwitch has returned to England, although transported for life. Pip is wretched because Estella encourages Bentley Drummle. One evening, he has a strange visitor. It is Magwitch, who reveals himself as Pip's benefactor.
