It’s night. A thunderstorm is raging outside. Caillou and Gilbert are afraid. They take refuge in Caillou’s closet until Daddy comes and rescues them. Over a cup of hot chocolate Dad tells Caillou about the counting game Grandma taught him. Playing the game, Caillou relaxes. He goes back to bed. While in bed, Dad and Caillou play the shadow game. With the storm moving away, Caillou, with Gilbert by his side, feels happy and safe again.
