This sequence is predominantly written in order to once again inform the reader as to some of the historical exploits of Sir Edmund Hillary. However, rather than simply list them all, such as his expedition in 1953, I took the liberty of exaggerating the tale of 'Hillary's Scalp' by implying that the adventurer actually knew the Yeti trophy at the Khumjung Monastery was a fake, and even cheekily had a copy made for himself.
The final frame also brings the four-parter's main characters together literally with a bump as they run into one another, and interrupt Edmund mid-flow.
Facing a grisly death at the hands of numerous Yeti, our time-travelling heroes desperately turn to using fire in order to defend themselves. But can even a box of matches help them against pistol-wielding Abominable Snowmen..!?!
