The find a tiger pacing back and forth.  When Sistine sees it, she automatically wants to let it out because she thinks it's wrong to keep an animal locked in a cage.  When they let it go it doesn't come out, it just stays in the cage.  Then they shake the cage and it comes out.  Rob's dad shoots the tiger.  Rob explodes and hits his dad.  His dad holds him and he calms down.
