The Time Traveller and Weena go to the White Sphinx, but on the way Weena faints. There he tries to find some explosives to blow up the pedestal, but he only finds some campher, some matches and an iron bar. He manages to escape and ends up in some kind of museum. When the Time Traveller is investigating the tunnels of the Morlock, he is captured. She follows him everywhere and gives him flowers. The Eloi aren't very interested in him anymore, but when he saves Weena, a young Eloi, the two of them become friends. Then his Time Machine is lost! He thinks it has been taken away by the Morlocks and is put underneath a pedestal of a White Sphinx, but he can't open it. The Time Traveller investigates the surroundings. The Morlocks have huge eyes that are able to see in the dark. They are white, ape-like creatures, who live in tunnels and only come out when it's dark. In 802,701 they are small human-like creatures with a strange language, and they eat only fruit.

His main theory is that everything is so perfectly secure, that the Upper-worlders (the Eloi) slowly degenerated. The Time Traveller has a lot of wrong theories about these two kinds. In the year 802,701 there are two kinds of 'people': the Eloi and the Morlocks (the enemies of the Eloi). He changes clothes, eats something (he's starving) and then he tells about his journey into the future. During the dinner he enters the room, dirty and wounded. A week later, the same people and two others have dinner again.

None of the listeners really believes him. The Time Traveller tells his theory about time travelling. The theme in books I enjoy most is science fiction and this book was suggested in Eldorado for the theme science fiction.
