A doctor at a local free hospital tells him that the dream represents wish fulfilment and the light is simply a rising sun. Ed has the dream again and when he wakes up decides to solve it. He goes to the wall and finds a secret panel. He enters a chamber and then sees a bright light which is a chest of treasure. Now Farraday Mansion looks better than it ever has before!

John W. Crane (Fire chief); Mr. Parkins
It happened on a frosty, clear night---it started with a telephone message---
Chief Crane receives a phone call advising of a fire at 346 Elm. When the fire equipment arrives they find that someone is inside, old man Parkins. The firemen save Mr Parkins. Later, when they are making out the fire report, Crane asks Parkins if he knows anyone called Danny, as he made the call. Parkins tells Crane that Danny is his son and that he always looks after him. Crane wonders why Danny is not present and Crane says that his son died in 1942. Further attempts to trace the phone caller are unsuccessful.
