That night, Chelsea had set William to sleep and was dozing, waiting for Kevin to be finished what he was doing. Kevin fell asleep after having a big ice cream dessert with a movie, it wasn't as scary as before since he was older, but he still flinched at some parts. Max was at her desk, yawning excessively, she wanted to get going, but she was told to wait a moment which felt eternal.

Hector slipped upstairs and slowly came to the door and gently knocked on it. "Housekeeping?" he called, disguising his voice.

Chelsea cracked her eye open. She closed it quickly though. William shifted, whimpering.

Kevin woke up in an instant, he pondered what to do. "Pretend to be asleep..." he whispered to Chelsea. "I'm gonna put Grandma Penelope's present to good use."

"Okay..." Chelsea nodded and kept quiet, looking peaceful.

Kevin rushed to the bathroom and took out his tape recorder as well. The sneaky, slippery, and slightly sinister concierage popped into the room, giving a look around. There were pillows in the bed that looked like a sleeping person. William was asleep still and Chelsea looked like she was sleeping. The concierage glanced to them, he looked dismayed once he saw there was an infant in the room, of all the children he didn't tolerate, babies ranked mighty high on his list.

He then gently walked around, looking for the father, knowing that he had to had been with them. He had eavesdropped on their conversation and registration with Mrs. Stone. He saw the bathroom door opened a crack, so he went there with an evil grin emerging on his snake, smug, grim face. Uncle Frank's voice was heard singing Cool Jerks, and the puppet looked like a man taking a shower. Hector crept in through the door, glancing at the shower, he looked disturbed and curious of it as he saw the shadow of the clown balloon pool toy who was 'showering and singing'.

Kevin was hiding safely and quietly, though operating the puppet to make it look like an adult male was showering. After a few seconds, it came to Uncle Frank shouting "get out of here you nosy little pervert!" Chelsea only allowed a small smile, like she was smiling in her dream. Hector was actually horrified that he was 'caught', it caused him to run out of the room and tripped over a small table, ending up on top of Chelsea by accident. Chelsea's eyes flew open and she was about to scream.

Hector got off from her quickly backed up. "M-My apologies, ma'am..." he said to her, showing a rare display of fear, he also hoped the baby wouldn't cry and he tried to escape from the room as quickly and swiftly as possible.

Chelsea purposely threw a pillow at Hector. William woke up and blinked, he saw the 'flying pillow' and was entranced. Hector grunted from the pillow and left the room, closing it behind him. Chelsea picked up the pillow and went to soothe William back to sleep. Kevin heard the front door click shut and he poked his head out, then looked to Chelsea and William, smiling then.

Chelsea rocked William back to sleep, then smiled softly at Kevin. "Good job." she says, quietly.

"Thanks..." Kevin said quietly back, he then looked really tired and decided to get himself ready for bed.

Chelsea put William down, and decided to join Kevin this time, knowing they wouldn't receive any more unwelcome guests.

Kevin actually looked a little sad tonight, he stared out the window as it was late and the snow was gently falling outside. "Good night, Mom..." he whispered softly.

"Come here, sweetheart." Chelsea says softly, holding her arms open for him.

Kevin looked back to her and went to hug her.

Eloise was sleeping soundly until she woke up with a yell and looked around. "Naaaaannnyyy!!!" she cried.

Nanny was fast asleep and didn't seem to be wakeable.
