Doc decides to use a mirror to show Chilly his reflection, but she accidentally drops it, and it shatters into pieces! Luckily, Doc's mom has a spare one in her closet, and she brings it out for them to use.

However, the new mirror is not like the old one, and when Chilly looks into it, he thinks he sees a monster instead of his own reflection.
