Panel A
Alice faces off against Baba Yaga and her demons across the threshold of Tommy's door. She has taken a defensive stance, as though she means to prevent the monsters from invading Tommy's room. Baba Yaga just smiles.
ALICE: "What are you doing out of your cage, old woman?"
BABA YAGA: "I want the bag, of course."
Panel B
The face-off continues. Alice brandishes a scalpel from the doctor's bag. Alice is furious, but Baba Yaga is calm. The demons gathered in the hallway look ready for a fight.
ALICE: "It's your life, witch. Let's see what you got."
BABA YAGA: "Oh I have no intention of fighting you. That's not why I'm here."
Panel C
The face-off continues. Baba Yaga holds up Boogy's hat in one withered hand. Alice seems surprised and frightened.
ALICE: "Then why?"
BABA YAGA: "To propose a trade. One bag for one Boogeyman, slightly used."
Panel D
Alice seems to shrink in defeat. Her arms fall to her sides, her head bowed. Baba smirks at her distress.
