In this short scene, Huck finds himself back in the competition. Huck is overcome with emotion at the thought of being able to rejoin the competition, but he is comforted by the fact that it was the president who helped him. Huck asks the president what happened, and the president tells him that he had just gotten off work and had stopped by to pick Huck up. Huck tells the president that he misses his parents very much, and that they sent him to the country because they did not want to abandon him. The president tells Huck to wait for two days before his parents will come to pick him up, and Huck says that he will take him back home with him.
