The authors report observations of the A twin component of the multiple quasar PG 1115+08, with the technique of speckle interferometry, on 1984, May. At that time, the magnitude difference between A2 and A1 was 1 mag., whereas it was known to be ≅0 before. The faintest component is elongated, almost along the A1A2 axis. The authors discuss the possible causes of this structure; the most likely is that it is due to a fifth component of the gravitational image of the QSO.
