In a fair, Creepie Creecher and Chris Alice were walking around and making plans on what to do. When Chris Alice takes an interest in the dart booth, because one of the prices is large stuff pink rabbit.
Meanwhile, Gnat and Pauly, who were hiding in their human sister's clothes, decided to run wild in the fair (There's a lot of food and rides, what more can two insects can ask for?) When some ice cream scoops fell, the two brothers decided to separate from Creepie and enjoy themselves. Chris Alice pays for some darts and to try her luck, though no matter how hard she tries, she can't hit the balloons. Creepie manages to divert her friend's attention and bring her to the freak show, there they saw Tarantula Boy.
Once the star attraction shows up, he scares all of the audience away (save Creepie and Chris Alice, who fainted). Both Creepie and Skipper exchange introductions.

During the outing, Skipper and Creepie took advantaged of the free tickets (which comes with working there), going on the rides, attractions, and winning some prices in the games.
