* ForgotAboutHisPowers: Tontu helps Hilda and Frida get into the central bell tower through Nowhere Space, but then just leaves them.

Justified as Tontu’s not that keen on letting people use Nowhere Space so frequently who isn’t a Nisse.

* PhlebotinumOverload: When she learns she can't shut off the system, Hilda puts all the bells on maximum volume so the mechanical bellringers overload and short out.
