Lydia and her magician have changed their act yet again, it is even more spectacular than before. Even the circus lions are on stage during their act. Stijn and Els watch Lydia and the magician perform from behind the curtains. The acts ends with Lydia swinging above the lions in their cage. The lions go wild but they cannot reach Lydia. The audience really likes this new act. After the show Els immediately tells the boss of the circus about the snake in Lydia’s trailer. The boss of the circus says the accusations become weirder and weirder, first a child now a snake in Lydia's mysterious box. Nevertheless he decides to have a look and knocks on the door of Lydia’s trailer. She opens and lets the boss in. A few moments later the boss opens the door again and starts shouting. He just had a look inside this mysterious box and there was no snake at all, only clothes.

After Els’ act Stijn and Els go to Lydia’s trailer. Again no luck, the door is closed. Suddenly Lydia’s masseur appears. Stijn and Els hide behind some crates. The masseur enters Lydia’s trailer and Els decides to have a look through the open door. She sees that the masseur is looking for something. Without hesitation Els enters the trailer and asks if she can help her. The masseur tells she is looking for Lydia’s new crown. She wants to wear it tonight during the show but she forget to take it with her. Stijn also enters the trailer. He walks straight to the mysterious box en says: “perhaps it is in this box”. He opens the box. Joep the monkey and Stijn both see what is inside the box. Joep is very frightened and falls of Stijn’s shoulders. Stijn closes the box quickly. The masseur tells them Lydia doesn’t like it when people look into the box. Els says: “is this what you are looking for?”. She saw the crown on the little cupboard right away and shows it to the masseur. The masseur tells her that this is indeed the crown she was looking for and pulls the crown out of Els’ hands. She orders Els and Stijn to leave the trailer and walks to the circus tent. In the tent she gives the crown to Lydia. When the masseur has left the trailer Els asks Stijn what it was he and Joep saw in the box. Stijn tells her they saw an enormous snake in the box. “That’s why she asked the cook for mice and frogs” Els answers.

The new act of Els is very spectacular. She dances on a rope while doing all kind of difficult exercises. Stijn watches her show from behind the curtains and is completely stunned and breathless. Els finishes with the most difficult exercise: she balances with her leg resting on a hoop and her hand holding the rope. Even as this exercise went wrong many time during her training she manages to do it without any mistakes. The audience thanks Els with an enormous applause. After the show Stijn doesn’t even get a chance for saying how spectacular he taught Els performed this night. “Let’s go to Lydia’s trailer”, Els says after having left the circus ring. “She and her magician perform later and until then we can try to enter her trailer and see what is in her mysterious box”. Stijn doesn’t even get the opportunity to say to her he prefers staying in the tent and watch the new show of Lydia and her magician…… He has to come with Els!
