When they came back off the roof a crowd started to cheer and crowd around Criss giving him pats on his back. When Criss came back in with Jessie he grabbed the side of the hotel door. "You all right Criss?"Doug asked. Criss looked up and he saw doubles all over the place. Jessie walked over as Criss started to gasp for air. "Criss what's wrong?". With out warning Criss fell to the floor. "Oh my god I need help please!!!"Jessie yelled as Criss just laid there. The paramedics came over and Doug pulled her over as they worked on Criss. Then Conner ran over when he heard about Criss. "What happened?" he asked. "I don't know Criss just finished his levitation as he came in he grabbed the side of the wall than Criss started to gasp for air as he fell to the ground" she remarked as tears fell down her face.

"Did his breath smell licorice?" Conner inquired. "Yea why?". Conner ran to the bar and grabbed a bottle of whiskey. The paramedics were about to tube him when Conner opened the whiskey and pour some down Criss's throat. A few seconds later Criss sit up and gasped for some air. The crowd cheered as Conner help Criss up. "You all right Mindfreak?"Conner asked. "Yea" as the paramedics left. Doug and Jessie walked over. "Conner what did you do?" Jessie inquired. "Someone gave Criss a poisonous flower that can cause double vision, slow heart rate, and stop breathing There's ingredient in whiskey that neutralize the plant's effect"Conner replied. "But how did the plant get into my system?"Criss asked. "Criss pull up your shirt for a minute"Conner inquired. Criss pulled it up as some of the women started to whistle which made Criss blush.

"Criss the crowd someone in the crowd must of stabbed you with out you realize it"Doug remarked. "But why would they do that?" Criss asked. "Because the rumors around this competition is that you could actually beat Maryse and be the number one magician"Conner replied.
