Summary: After Hester Prynne returned to the prison, she was in such a state of nervousness that her daughter had caught onto the mood and was crying and screaming. The jailer, Master Brackett, was so worried that he called in a physician. The physician told the jailer to leave them alone and started to talk to Hester. Hester is convinced that the physician is trying to poison them and soon reveals that he is, in fact, her husband. He keeps asking about the child's father and keeps saying that he only wishes to exact revenge on him. He also states how he was wrong with marrying Hester.
