Voice of the Spirit (startling Nicholas): Anything? (calls him by name, hauntingly) Nicholas?

Who's there? Who said that?

You did say..."anything"?

(Nicholas is taken aback by the voice; walking a few steps back, he falls down into the trunk.)

Whoa!! (sighs)
Tenderheart Bear (looking through a hole at back of Fetuccini's desk): Oh, gosh!
