Arthur hears music coming from somewhere in the house. It leads him to the kitchen where he spots Ms. Chapelwhite and Lucy preparing dinner while singing and dancing. They have a feast in Linus’ honor. Everything goes smoothly until the children start teasing Linus about being round and having a pet cat instead of a wife. At one point, Sal asks if Linus is here to separate them. The children seem terrified at this prospect. Arthur reassures them.
