Pages 175-250 Summary

In his Boston hotel room, Vic awakens with a jolt from a violent nightmare about Donna and Tad cowering in fear from a monster. In the dream, he plans to call home to check on them. However, when he wakes up, he forgets the dream and never calls home.

Charity wakes up in her sister’s house in the middle of the night. She finds Brett sleepwalking downstairs in the kitchen. He mimes feeding Cujo and utters, “‘Cujo’s not hungry no more,’” which disturbs Charity (182). Back in Castle Rock, George Meara relishes that he doesn’t need to drive all the way out to the Camber property to deliver mail because Joe put a vacation hold on his mail for the week.

Steve Kemp, driving through New England, is fuming over Donna and wishes he could be there to see the fallout in her marriage. He decides to turn around and drive back to Castle Rock. When he reaches Donna’s house, he wreaks havoc, ransacking the downstairs rooms. He erases the note she left on the refrigerator message board and instead writes that he left a surprise upstairs. He masturbates onto Vic and Donna’s bedspread and flees the scene, satisfied at his work.
