The next morning the stroller was back in the driveway. The old cop arrives to talk to Vic. He sees the stroller and snake pole

He talks to the cops about the women and her kids. They tell him to call if anything comes up. The next morning he wakes up to find the stroller of the woman in his driveway with shirts tweedledee and tweedledum on the seats. Someone playing a joke? He returns the stroller and has a flash of a vision of the kids being bitten by rattlesnakes with clips of his own sun mixed in for fun
