[Maurizio has accidentally lost his disguise and is clinging to a pillar. One ghost has siezed Jacob around the neck]
Maurizio di Mauro: Jacob!
[Maurizio accidentally loosens his grip on the pillar and begins to slide down it. The sounds of his claws against the pillar are like nails on a chalkboard to the ghosts, who quiver in pain. The one holding Jacob lets go of him]
Ghost #2: Stop that horrible noise!
[They all disappear. Maurizio lands on the floor and cowers]
Maurizio di Mauro: P-p-please, d-don't hurt me!
[He turns around and sees that the theatre is empty except for Jacob]
Maurizio di Mauro: Huh? Jacob, what's going on?
Jacob Scribble: You saved the day, Maurizio!
