The living dolls find clues in the sweets they were served. Outside they find themselves at the entrance to a garden labyrinth, where Edward tells them they have two hours to rescue their shadow-masters and exit the maze. After reciting some rules, he allows them to take one item each from a selection to help with their quest, and Emiliko chooses a wheeled cart. It is revealed that Edward is irritated the children danced when he played the piano. Later on, Emiliko and Rem team-up while John wanders the labyrinth after freeing himself. He eventually finds Kate and makes a shocking proposition.
