Returning to the house, Mister Rogers shares a film about a spider spinning a web.

While everyone seems to be relieved, King Friday understands that some may still be angry; therefore, he announces that tomorrow there will be a "festival of mad feelings." Back at the house, Mister Rogers sings What Do You Do With the Mad That You Feel. Elsie Neal stops by to show Mister Rogers her finished web.
