Dancing With The Scarecrow
If you STILL have time to burn (or just don't care to do the above), you should find a Scarecrow. There's one back in the Astral Observatory, but there's also one in the Trading Post (West Clock Town). Dance with him repeatedly until the night of the final day to pass the time. He's also willing to tell you about some hidden songs. Since songs play a vital part in this game, this could be important, hmm?

Once it's the night of the final day, get ready, because you're going to confront Skull Kid! Check out the moon every little while, as it steadily gets bigger, but on the Final Night, it grows incredibly quickly.

The Bank
Before you actually go to the Clock Tower, there's one thing you should do quickly. In the N64 version of the game, go to West Clock Town and speak with the man sitting on the counter in the middle of the area (the bank). He'll stamp you with some special ink, which gives you an account. Right on! Put all of your remaining rupees in the bank, which will allow you to save them for later (you'll see why in a bit). If you are playing the 3DS version of the game, the banker is located in South Clock Town, just north of the Clock Tower, near the entrance to North Clock Town. Nearby is an Owl Statue. In the 3DS version you can walk up to any of these statues at anytime and save your progress.

Carnival of Time
When you're all ready, go to the yellow Deku Flower in South Clock Town (the one that you traded your Moon's Tear for) and get in. Fly to the overhang above the door leading into the Clock Tower. Here, you'll find your very first Piece of Heart! For every four of these you find, another heart will be added to those at the top-left of the screen, extending your total life energy.

At 12:00 on the last night, you'll witness a short scene with fireworks celebrating the Carnival of Time and the top of the Clock Tower flipping on its side. This will open a doorway with some stairs that lead up to the top. Once the movie ends, run up the stairs to confront the Skull Kid and get back what's rightfully yours!
