Sue and John go up to Ten - Acre field to give Worzel a present - a bowl of Black Forest Gateaux mix. When they arrive they find a different scarecrow at Worzel’s post, Dafthead. It turns out that he has put a bucket on Worzel’s head, tied him up and then dumped him in his barn. Sue and John free Worzel and the trio head up to Ten - Acre to confront Dafthead. When they arrive he is still eating the cake mix so Worzel tries to outsmart him. Unfortunately, Dafthead is too clever so Worzel decides to go and see the Crowman to see if he has any ideas.
