Remember Dandy? The rich young man who wanted to buy the twins? Well, he is bored, so much that his mother goes out looking for some excitement for her boy. While riding her car, she sees Twisty the clown, remember, our super creepy clown? Instead of running as far away as possible as every sane person would do, she stops her car, and she asks him if he does private parties…
Meanwhile, her son is back to the Freak Show, to ask Jimmy to become part of the show. Jimmy sends him away though, seeing in him just a bored rich boy who’s looking for some fun.
When Dandy comes back, Twisty is waiting for him…
We learn that Ethel knows Dell. He tried to kill Jimmy when he was just a baby.
