No act manages to raise the King's mood, and lastly the ringmaster shows a creature he ensures is unique, but results to be a Smurf; the ringmaster bought him for two coins to a guy who found him at the road. Since the law states that a slave can buy his freedom if he refunds his own price, Johan gives to coins to the Smurf to pay the ringmaster.
