For some reason, Rivera chose to not burden us with exactly how Mark and Range Shaw removed the bats from the concert hall, in spite of showing us Honest Ernest’s foolish attempt. Are we to think that the bats willingly flew into those bat houses, merely on sight? And where did the houses get placed?

Well, tempus fugit once again, as we move directly to the festival and concert. Cherry is certainly elegantly decked out. Yet it is fascinating that Rivera forces her characters to act foolishly or just ignorantly, simply to make a weak joke. Cherry welcomes “everyone”, but Violet is concerned whether there will be a good turnout.
