The king speaks to the children while an unseen light shines down on them from above. The king believes the children to be spies from a nearby kingdom, and accuses them of attempting to steal his recipe for raspberry ice cream so that the children and "their people" can enjoy eating it with their own "kingdom's" wafer biscuits. The king announces he is going to put the children into his dungeon until their own king arrives with a recipe for making wafers.
