Mais un jour, Toto renverse un paravent : derrière se cache un petit vieil homme ! Il avoue être un « charlatan », un simple homme venu d'Omaha en ballon. Il dit lui-même qu'il est un très bon homme, mais un très mauvais magicien. Au discours indirect, les temps reculent d'un cran : « I am a humbug » → He said that he was a humbug.
