Max and Lily caught the bookworm and convinced it to stop its mischief. The bookworm explained that it was bored and wanted attention, so it started playing tricks on the characters. Lily offered to help the bookworm find more constructive ways to occupy its time, such as helping with book repairs or assisting with storytelling. Max and Lily worked together to fix the damaged books and restore order to the shop. As the night wore on, the characters returned to their pages, and the shop grew quiet once again.
