While the man is distracted, Hotspur takes the opportunity to attack him and ends up dropping the remote control that activates the wig-making machine Freddy quickly runs to catch it and managed to steal the remote control.
Upon realizing that his plan has failed, hotspur becomes furious and attacks Freddy, while trying to escape the boy accidentally free his cousins from the attic and manages to gain time to climb onto the roof, the problem is that his uncle continues to chase him and Freddy sees no choice but to transform, as he knows that in human form he would never defeat the enemy.
When he sees that his friends and family believe in him, the boy feels even more encouraged and when he's touched by the moonlight again, he transforms into a poodle despite his fragile appearance, Freddy discovers that he is as powerful as any other wolf and through his roar Freddy knocks hotspur off the roof.
