When Oblina is invited home for the weekend, Ickis and Krumm come along and discover that being rich is no walk in the dump. Krumm and Ickis have to convince Oblina to stand up to her domineering mother after she insists that Oblina must leave the academy and return to the estate for good.
The festival celebrates the shedding of skins that each monster must undergo as he or she moves from childhood to adolescence. As the festival approaches, Krumm is chosen to form a band and Oblina is chosen to perform the festival's ceremonial dance. Ickis, who shows no signs of shedding, feels left out.
Ickis, Krumm, and Oblina sneak into Simon's house to scare him. After the scare, Simon seems to know the monsters' whereabouts. He shows up when they least expect it. How is he doing it?
