So where do we gofor this “other intruder”
the Old Bag was ravin' about, Scarly? The
Intruder Store?
Check it: if there's two intruders...
. . .it's most likely that cat wasn't working alone.
So --

to meet up.
Life reachesout for life... if I'm remembering right.
Word...
I told ya once not
to call me Scarly.
Come on, Will.. .an idea... just one
will do.
Wha...huh?
“Need an idea for tonight? How does
Luna Park sound! What better way to spend
your time...
“.. .than on our Roller Ghoster and other
attractions?“...the Wonder
Wheel, The Tunnel of Terrors, the Un-Haunted House...
“.. .and if that weren't enough, for one night only: free
Ula-Pops and all you can carry of...”
D'oh! Ula-Pops! At a park...
That's it! Where else would a guy like that
go, with a baby girl on his shoulders?
