Les rats sont charmés par votre mélodie et abandonnent bien sagement leur nid. Parmi tout ce beau monde, vous découvrez un cradopossum — créature monstrueuse et vermineuse, couverte d'excroissances, pourvue d'une poche sur son abdomen et réputée pour kidnapper les petits. Il n'a vraisemblablement pas été charmé par la flûte et a attendu le moment opportun avant de s'enfuir.
