Her screams awaken Ben, who heads to her rescue as the Circus of Crime moves to stop him.Outside the tent, Bobby and Terri have arrived late, and are being refused admittance. When they hear Alicia's screams, Bobby sends Terri off to find a phone and call the police and then ices up to join the fight inside as the Iceman...
