Synopsis

more unnerved. After walking further through the graveyard, he finds another open grave which leads into a seemingly bottomless hole. Descending into it and finding himself in a cave, Cadavre continues walking but is extremely cold and weak.

After some time, Cadavre is shown lying on the ground, staring up at the entrance to the grave he came down from where the bottomless pit he saw seems to be stretching upward. The moon slowly slides into view and Cadavre is suddenly shown as an inanimate skeleton. The cartoon ends with the Local 58 clown figure bumper from before, saying "See You Next Time".
