The outcasts were at Lee's 10th birthday party, and it may be the know about Cam being hypnotized. Lee tries to get close to them and learn that they are trying to get a whisker from the red tazelwurm to cure their "curse" (being unpopular to the other students). They discover a pyramid under the cafeteria, which is protected by a large group of blue tazulwurms and are saved by the tazulwurm. Lee discovers the Outcasts were not responsible for the hypnosis of Cam. At home, Lee discovers a photo of his 10th birthday and finds out that Biffy was at the party.
