The narrator has just returned from visiting their new landlord, Mr. Heathcliff, who is the only neighbor they will have to interact with. The narrator believes they have found a location completely removed from society that is perfect for a misanthrope like themselves. Upon meeting Mr. Heathcliff, the narrator notes how Heathcliff's eyes withdrew suspiciously and his fingers sheltered further in his waistcoat when the narrator announced their name. When the narrator confirms they are the new tenant, Mr. Lockwood, Heathcliff interrupts to state that Thrushcross Grange belongs to him and he will not allow anyone to inconvenience him.
