Will sleeps for EXACTLY one hour, and the notices that Jim's lightning rod isn't there anymore, (It gets crazier). Will and Jim feel something, and both open their windows, and look up at the same time. There's a balloon in the air! Like...hot air balloon with an alive wax witch in it...who marks Jim's roof with. She's blind but she like...feeds off of emotions and sensations. For whatever reason, I have this nagging feeling that the circus is trying to kill Will and Jim. Anyway, they climb up onto Jim's roof and find this weird mark, and they use a hose to wash it off. (I think that the lightning rod salesman was trying to set Jim up to be found and him taking the rod down was good.) But Jim feels bad for taking it down, and the boys want to take the witch out so the rest of the carnival people don't know where they live. Will decides to use his boy scout's archery set and makes a plan to throw his emotions and feelings at the witch to lure her somewhere where he could take her out. So he runs to an abandoned house, and because he thinks she'll sense his plan, he puts his back to her, making her more confident. But at the last second, when he's about to shoot her, his bow breaks in two! AHH THE SUSPENSE! He runs, jumps, and stabs the balloon, and falls, thank god, he lands on a tree.
It's raining and Miss Foley is transfixed by the carousel music, like she is all out entranced. Jim tells Will about a dream he had that is very similar to what Will actually did the night before....but before Will can tell Jim, they find a little girl crying. Jim is worried when they start talking with her and its totally Miss Foley, because when they go to her house, she isn't there. Well, they determine that it is Miss Foley. Then they find out that the circus is having a parade through town and the hide. But when they go back to find the girl, shes gone!
Will calls his father and tells him that Jim and Will might not be home that night because "they" are looking for him and Jim and Mr. Halloway needs to tell Jims mom. He asks his dad to wish him luck and he does to the dial tone. And he goes out into the new day. Jim and Will hide under this like Cigar Store's like Cherokee Indian...well the grille in the sidewalk. But the parade is just starting...right in front of this same cigar store. Some little boy drops his gum and notices the boys in the grille and tries to tell his mom (stupid little kid). But its too late when the boy gets taken by his mom, because the freaking Dwarf is looking straight into the grille. Mr. Halloway goes into Ned's Night Spot and is being by....none other than....Mr. Dark. When Ned asks what he'll have, he says nothing, but he's looking for two boys. Mr. Halloway leaves when he hears that, and when Ned starts talking, Mr.Dark doesn't listen. When Charles walked out, the he walked over the grille and Jim begged Will to call him, but Will says no because he didn't want his father to get involved. But when he buys a cigar he notices them, and yells at them to get out. But Mr. Dark approaches Charles Halloway and tries to get Charles to tell the boys' location, but he lies a lottttt. And the Mr. Dark tells him that the boys are winners of some BS contest. The Dust Witch starts sensing their feelings but the smoke from Mr. Halloways cigar throws her off and when Mr. Dark asks his name, he is honest, and even tells him where he works....why would you ever? Mr. Halloway tells the boys to meet him at the library at seven.
Dwarfy man realizes that he saw Mr. Halloway look in the grate and that he saw the boys, but when he goes to look, they've vanished.
