This chapter lists the times Hugo has been to La Garra in the past. One time was a school field trip to see a one-act show. Another time was a field trip to the La Garra Museum of Natural History, where the science teacher takes the class to the basement where they keep unsorted things. The teacher finds a skull in a little cage, and he shakes the cage and the skull screams. He tells the story of this Frenchman in olden times who would bite off people's fingers so they put a cage around his head. But he could still bite little children's fingers and he bit off the fingers of a dignatary's daughter. The dignatary chops off his head and keeps the caged head as a trophy back home even though it screams all the time.
Another time he and some friends went to a strip club for somebody's birthday. Then one time he and his twin sister went there so he could by an expensive microphone and they were both scared by the city. We also hear about MIDNITE THRENODY, a pirate radio broadcast (?) that has become a popular show in the area (I think??)
