The Jindas are a friendly bunch, even offering Wicket a free ticket to their next show. Wicket eagerly accepts the offer, excited to see what the performers have in store.
When Wicket arrives at the next Jindas show, he is amazed by the group's talent and their ability to engage the audience.

In the end, Wicket returns the wand to the Jindas, who are eternally grateful and reward him with a special prize: a chance to perform on stage with them.
