Outside of the mansion, Madison saw Alan out to the road until she saw a police car.
"Watch out!" she cried out.
Alan saw the police car, as it was screeching the wheels to stop, and then hopped on the hood of the car. Madison watched the car door open and saw the policeman she met yesterday. Carl Bently.
"Get down off of my car, please. And get up on the sidewalk." he said to Alan and the jungle man got off of the car.
"What year is it?" he asked.
"It was brand new." Carl answered as he looked at him.
"No, what year is it?"
"Uh, 1995, remember?" Judy spoke as she, Peter, and Madison came to them. Alan was shocked of hearing the year.
"You got some I.D.? Oh, let me guess. You left it in your other Tarzan outfit?" said Carl as he was talking to Alan.
"Twenty-six years." he said to himself as he was calculating the years.
"Are you from around here?"
"l was! But I've been in Jumanji."
"Indonesia. He was in the Peace Corps." Judy lied.
Alan looked at the name tag of the officer and looked surprised. Carl turned looked strangely at him and turned to face Madison and the kids.
"Nice to see you again miss." he said to Madison.
"Hello again, Officer Carl." she said to him.
"I see that you've been accepted as a nanny. Should the kids be in school?"
"They overslept so I have to wake them up and get dressed quickly so we could go."
"Well, I think you should be more careful miss. We got some strange creatures and some people got sick." said Carl. He looked back at Alan and then turned to face the kids, "Is this man related to you?"
"Yes, sir. He's, our uncle." Judy lied again.
"Does he always dress like that?"
"WelI, yeah, he's a vegetarian."
"Get out of there!" Alan screamed and chattering. Everyone looked at Alan as he was screaming in the car, but no one was in there. "Monkeys. Monkeys!" he said as looked at them and turned back to face the car.
Madison looked at the car and then saw two monkeys in there.
"ls he all right upstairs?" Carl asked to Judy.
"Uh, he suffered a head injury a few months ago."
Alan kept on screaming until a bang came from the car. That made Madison jumped and saw the car driving away.
"Hey! Hey!" Carl yelled and looked at Alan, "Don't you move."
Madison watched Carl chasing his car but saw Alan running off to another direction.
"Alan!" she shouted.
"Wait a minute! Where are you going?" Judy shouted.
"To find my parents!" he answered as he hollered.
"Come on. We need to catch up with him." said Madison and the three quickly ran off to chase him.
They kept following and chasing him through the town. Madison could see that he was confused and sad how everything looked so different to him since he was trapped in the game. They kept running through the path that was in the forest until they stopped as they saw an abandon factory saying, 'Parrish Shoe Company'.
They saw Alan from the distance going and the three continued on going and went in the factory. As they entered, they went up the stairs and look around to find Alan until they found him. Kneeling down against the floor. He was picking up an old box and then he turned around to face Madison and the kids.
"My dad used to make shoes here. They were the best shoes in New England." he said.
He looked up and saw something.
"Hey!" he exclaimed and ran to a direction up the stairs.
Madison looked up and saw someone in an old office. She decided to follow them along with the kids. She can hear Alan's voice talking to a man.
"Do you know what happened to this shoe factory?" Alan asked.
"Yeah, it folded up." the man replied, "Like everything else in this town. Hey, it's pretty cold out there. How 'bout some coffee?"
Madison and the kids made it to the office and saw Alan with an old man who has a dog resting on the pillow.
"Why would they close Parrish Shoes?" Alan asked again.
"When his kid ran away, Sam put all he had into trying to find him. His time, his money. Everything. After a while, he stopped comin' to work. He just quit carin'. l don't think anybody loved his boy more than Sam did." the man explained. He turned around and grabbed a set clothes. "Here," he said as he handed them to Alan, "You're gonna freeze out there."
"Thank you." Alan replied but then he asked, "Are the Parrishs still around?"
"I see 'em now and then."
"Yeah?" Alan smiled as he was hoping.
"They're over on Adams Street." the man answered, and Alan's smile slowly faded.
Moments later, all four came to a cemetery. Alan stood in front of a head stone saying 'Parrish'. The grave belongs to his parents.
"I'm so sorry Alan." Madison spoke softly.
"Our parents are dead too." said Judy, "They were in the Middle East negotiating peace when..."
Peter lightly hit his sister's arm, telling her to stop with the lying and then sat beside Alan.
"Our dad was in advertising." he said to him.
"I bet you miss him, huh? Me too." said Alan. He placed his leaf helmet on his parents' grave and walked away.
"There he goes again." said Judy and the three starts following him again.
"Listen, I know you're upset and all, but l kinda feel we should finish the game." said Judy as they all caught up to him.
"We? Why do you need me?" Alan asked.
"Well, we thought maybe we could use your help." said Madison.
"Right, just in case any other scary stuff comes out. Plus, there's a lion in my aunt's bedroom. What should l do about that?" Judy asked.
"Do l look like a Ringling Brother?"
"But she'll be home soon."
"Won't she be surprised. Hope she's not allergic to cats." said Alan.
Suddenly, they saw an ambulance going by with the sirens on. They heard a crash, and all turned to see a car driving on the grass and on the road until the ambulance hit it. All four looked shock to see a car crash they witness.
A paramedic jumped out of the ambulance and ran towards the car. He was checking the driver and then ran back.
"Larry, we need the wheels. Gimme a hand." he shouted.
"Did we hit her that hard?" the other paramedic asked as the two men brought an emergency gurney out of the ambulance.
"No, it looks like another one of those weird bites."
The paramedics went to the car and grabbed a woman out there.
"Yeah, it's another one."
"Geez, that's over 50. What the heck is going on?"
The group looked at the car and saw the woman until Judy spoke...
"Hey, look. Isn't that Mrs. Thomas?"
"Who's that?" Peter asked.
"The realtor."
"Quiet. Listen." Alan hushed them, "You hear that?"
"Hear what?" Judy asked in concern.
"I don't hear anything." Madison whispered.
She looked at Alan and felt like he did hear something.
"Get in the car." he whispered, and everyone went while the paramedics took the woman in the ambulance and drove away.
Madison was in the back seat while Judy and Peter were sitting in front and Alan on the driver's seat.
"Okay, think. What came out of the game before me?" Alan asked and Judy starts answering.
"There was a lion, a bunch of monkeys and..."
"That!" Peter yelled as he pointed at something.
Alan turned around and saw the mosquito. Madison yelp to see that beast again and the kids panicked.
"It's okay. It's okay. It's just a bug. But we're safe in here. See? We're fine." said Alan as he was calming everyone down, but Madison screamed as she saw its proboscis (nose) going through the top the of the car.
"As long as we stay low, he can't get through there too far. Don't worry. We're fine." said Alan until Judy yelp to see it at the front glass window. "Hey, he can't get us in here. He can't get through the glass. We're safe."
The girls exclaimed as the mosquito's proboscis was banging on the glass and made a small hole. Alan turned his head and looked at the three.
"Either one of you know how to drive?" he asked, and all look silent and looked at him, "No? Well, that's no problem. Well, my dad used to let me back the car down the driveway once. So, what's the big deal?"
Madison and the kids were wide eyed to hear what he just said and quickly buckle up the seat belts.
"Here we go!" said Alan and starts the car but was having trouble with the buttons, "Wait a minute."
The three looked at him, pressing the buttons but he pressed one of them that made the top open.
"Alan, the top!" the girls screamed as they slid down from their seats until Peter grabbed the driving stick pulled back, making the car go forward.
All three yelped and hang on tight as Alan drove the car like crazy until finally, they stopped at the mansion. All four inhaled and exhaled their breaths many times from a insaning drive.
"Piece of cake." said Alan and got out of the car and head towards the mansion while the three remain in the car.
"You kids... alright?" Madison asked in concern.
"Yeah. We're fine." Judy replied.
"Same." Peter answered.
