I TALKED TO ATE. NOW WHAT?

The doorbell interrupted your conversation with Calvin. Maybe you can resume it?

Something in the billiard room is changed.

Yes, Calvin disappeared, but there's something else too.

An extra candle is on the mantel. Take it.

What can you do with a candle?

That's right, light it.

Ouch! You can't light it here!

Where have you seen a more manageable fire than in the fireplace?

Go to the kitchen.

Use the candle on the fire under the pot to light it.

Now put it back in its candleholder in the billiard room.

Enter the beast's mouth. (It's okay, it won't eat you.)
