[the figure lifts the veil. It's Cyril]
Mr. Toad:
Cyril?
Cyril Proudbottom:
Shhhh!
[the guard closes the door. Toad sinks into a sitting position, buries his face in his hands and sobs]
Mr. Toad:
Oh, Cyril!
Cyril Proudbottom:
Look, Christmas gift.
[He presents a small pink dress and off-white cap identical to the one he's wearing, draped over his hoof]
Mr. Toad:
W... w-w-what is it?

[he puts the dress and cap on Toad]
Cyril Proudbottom:

[the next scene shows Toad breaking jail]
