Mole tells them about a dead bird he found in his tunnel earlier that day. She informs her of Cornelius's supposed demise, saddening Thumbelina too greatly. Thumbelina almost freezes to death, until she's found and taken in by the greedy Ms. Beetle and his men find Cornelius trapped in the ice and take him back to Grundel.
