Retrieving the orb, the misfits are able to head back home. Steve allows Dennis to go live with Dawn, and after Natalie suggests that Steve head into the real world, he decides to join them. On Earth, Steve assists Garrett in creating a new arcade game and forms a band with him, while Dawn leaves her real-estate job to start a petting zoo. Natalie, after finishing unpacking boxes in her home, notices a box labeled with her name, finding a sketchbook with a note left for her by her mother. Smiling at it, Natalie reaches for a paintbrush and begins to draw, not caring about whether her painting was good or not, knowing that Henry had inspired her to create.
