The building includes an entirely separate studio apartment which is occupied some of the time by Ezra Johnson, a 24-year-old full-time lobsterman. The studio is entirely separate from the rest of the house and Ezra has very long working hours, so will not be around very much. When he is there, his is very quiet.
