Mitch believes he is back on Earth in Australia. He collapses, exhausted, near a sheep farm in the Outback and is cared for by the farmer and his wife. Meanwhile Jet and Lemmy and Doc are trailing across the Martian Desert in pursuit of the strange spherical craft which they believe contains the crew of the wrecked freighter No. 2. They sight some sand dunes in the distance, and, topping them, see, to their surprise, a farm house with some outbuildings. Later they sight what appears to be a normal human being carrying a gun. The figure enters the farm house and Jet decides to go down and investigate.

Was the magic power he had over the violin invoked by his mother when he was young? Was the * Canon Joseph' violin made by the equally strange genius, Guarneri, a manifesta-tion of a pact with the Devil? It is for you to decide.
