Tamaki does not emerge into this dream as his mature self. Instead, he is a wide-eyed, tow-headed, curious and courteous nightmare. He is filled with a sudden certainty as he sees where he is: he has been unjustly imprisoned in the Bastille! For crimes he did not commit! Only a brave hero like his mother tells him about could possibly rescue him now! D'Artagnan, or Jean Valjean, The Scarlet Pimpernel, or maybe Musashi!

"Okaa-san!" he shouts at the top of his little lungs. "Send Valjean-san to break me out!" He shakes his bars in tiny, impotent fury.
