Summary v.5

Matilda's friends have been gone for only one week and Matilda already feels lonely. Not just has George stopped talking to her and started to avoid her, she has also been moved from the fields she usually works on.

One day, one of the lilies, Maggie, says to Matilda she's going to join her and work up in the greenhouses on the hill. The work up there is so much funnier and Matilda loves it, but, she is no longer aloud to have tea with the other farmers. Instead she and Maggie sit in the sun and they eat the most delicious cake Matilda has ever eaten. 

Even though she's pleased and comfortable with Maggie she can feel something's wrong when she gets back to the others. She remembers she fell asleep in the sun and dreamt a weird dream about Jesus instantly after drinking that delicious tea. Just a coincidence she thinks but George doesn't agree at all. He tells her a story about a girl, Jamima, who also worked up on the hill. "She became weird after a while", he says, "and one day she just disapeared", he continues. He tells Matilda all the farmers thinks she became one of them. The lilies manipulated and brainwashed Jamima and now Matilda's their next victim.
