The marionette is caught by a Carabiniere, but he assumes that Pinocchio has been mistreated and imprisons Geppetto.

On his way to school the next morning, Pinocchio encounters the Great Marionette Theatre and he sells his school book in order to buy a ticket for the show. The marionettes on stage recognize him in the audience and call out to him angering the puppet master Mangiafuoco. The puppet master initially decides to use Pinocchio as firewood, but ultimately releases him and gives him five gold pieces to give to Geppetto ...
