A young white Polish boy drags Seth backward and urges him to hide from “the Driver,” the entity driving the black van. A Black English teenage girl tells Seth that the Driver will kill him if the Driver sees him. Seth is shocked and confused, but their evident fear makes him comply. They get on bikes and ride away from the van, which follows in their direction looking for them. The group hides and Driver comes close but does not find them. The young Polish boy cries in the older girl’s arms with relief.
