  The label on the bottle reads 'There be a witch in here. Let her out and there be a peck of trouble'. But Mike is preoccupied with trying to emulate his impulsive sister or his responsible brother. Then Mike's friend Lee swears he sees something fly out of the bottle, and Mike decides to open it again.
