The kids are in the Whispering Gallery, and they've knocked out Mr. Curtain twice, but they still can't figure out how to disable the Whisperer. Worse, Mr. Curtain has weaseled his way back under the red helmet and brains are about to be swept. The tension is high, so when Constance climbs into the Whisperer and those wrist cuffs snap shut, we know the climax has arrived. If Constance can hold out, they'll win. And if Constance can't hold out, who possibly can?
