Summary
The carnival hasn't been in town long when one of their rides breaks down - the group rescues a child trapped by the incident, but it seems to draw extra attention from a group of three territorial rangers who were already quite suspicious of strangers. Investigating the tensions in the town, they find out a group of children had been kidnapped months earlier - and as it turns out, the problems in Nouveau Départ aren't over.
