Dandy gives impulsive stage direction, incredulous that they haven't sold any tickets in the brief time he's been in charge. He blames the performers for being boring and mediocre, thinking audiences want a "new type of freak". He is further rude to them and threatens mutilation. Further simpering brings retaliation from the freaks, as Paul calls him boring and pretentious, and they quit on the spot. They leave him reeling on the ground in the big top.

!Curtain Call
->'''The freaks rebel against the new management. Dandy prepares for his debut performance. Elsa arrives in Tinseltown.'''

Elsa arrives in Los Angeles to see the president of the World Broadcasting Network, but has yet to score an appointment. She is rebuffed for the third day in a row by the receptionist. Many cigarettes later, night has fallen and Elsa remains in the lobby. Her would-be appointment has slipped out the back to avoid her. The receptionist makes a crack at her, saying Marlene Dietrich performed Elsa's act better. Elsa slugs her in retaliation, fighting off a restraining security guard. An executive, Michael Beck, comes to her rescue. He admits that they are of similar backgrounds, as his family were Germans as well. She thanks him for his sympathy and he replies that he also happens to be a Junior Vice President of Casting.

He awakes in his briefs inside Houdini's water tank. He pleads that he's fulfilling his God-given purpose and says he forgives and loves the twins.

Desiree insists that for all that they are, Dandy is the biggest freak of them all.

In 1960 Hollywood, a news reel announces the start of the Walk of Fame with three-time Emmy Award winner Elsa Mars, now famous for the groundbreaking "Elsa Mars Hour" and her gold recording albums. She and her now-husband Michael Beck film a commercial for Campfire Gold coffee. She cuts the film to balk at the script and the product. In her dressing room, Michael brings the network's VP for publicity to discuss a spread for Parade magazine about a Halloween performance. Elsa refuses to perform on Halloween, remembering also her sexual domination of her husband. She comes home to see Massimo, who she has not seen since Florida. He worked in Nevada with the US Army to build villages for atomic testing.
