Drew wakes up in the closet and tiptoes down the stairs. He discovers Hannah sleeping in the rocking chair. He investigates the closet and the room and realizes that he has woken up in the past, in Andrew’s time. As Hannah stirs, he jumps into bed and lies still, trying not to frighten her. She touches his face and calls in the rest of the family, announcing that Drew’s fever has broken. Mrs. Tyler and Theo rush in to check on him. Mrs. Tyler is thrilled at Drew’s recovery while Theo worries about the fact that Drew doesn’t seem to recognize any of them. Dr. Fulton comes to evaluate him and confirms that his diphtheria has entirely cleared. Dr. Fulton insists that Drew will be back to his old “mischievous” self soon. Drew sees Dr. Fulton leave in a horse-drawn buggy and watches Hannah play fetch with the big family dog, Buster. Drew worries about having to interact with Buster, who is much bigger and scarier than Binky. Drew feels lost, like an actor who doesn’t know his lines. He wonders if he’ll ever be able to go back to his own time.
