See Gunn's "Figure 3 shows a single view of the model [of 7 Eccles St.]. This example has transparent walls and is part of a fly-through that follows Bloom's path in 'Ithaca' over the railings into the front area, through the door, along the passage, up the stairs and back to the front door." http://hjs.ff.cuni.cz/archives/v7/essays/gunn.htm See Raleigh's floorplan: https://books.google.com/books?id=QsJmAejhq68C&lpg=PP2&ots=TNggYzwWpj&dq=chronicle%20of%20leopold%20and%20molly%20bloom&pg=PA143#v=onepage&q&f=false
In Calyspo anent a novel Molly asked, "Is she in love with the first fellow all the time?" In Nausicaa, Bloom thought, "Remember that till their dying day. Molly, lieutenant Mulvey that kissed her under the Moorish wall beside the gardens. Fifteen she told me." So "I was thinking of so many things he didnt know of Mulvey" gives the reader an answer: Molly IS in love with Mulvey "all the time" in this novel.
Haines is an Englishman from Oxford who is boarding in the tower with Stephen and Mulligan, apparently with the goal of researching Irish folk tradition. The previous evening he had a nightmare involving shooting a black panther; the dream disturbed Stephen, who feared Haines would try to shoot his gun while half-awake. This story parallels a story from Joyce's own life (see Ellmann's biography of Joyce for details).
