All of a sudden the fountain starts and some wet foot prints appear leading in the direction of a shed. Clyde and Rani hear a young girl crying, and enter the shed. The crying stops as Clyde pulls a sheet off a mirror. A strange man’s face appears in the mirror. Clyde and Rani run back into the manor and find Sarah Jane.
