When the Hunchback retired, Notre Dame advertises for a new bell ringer. After several promising candidates a boy with no arms walks up the tower and says hes ready to work. The Chaplin looks at him and says you have no arms son you cant possibly ring the bell. The boy says that nobody ever gives him a chance and starts to walk away and the Chaplin says ok son give it a try. He looks around and sees an old barrel and a wooden plank and with his feet and body manage to set up a ramp. Then he takes a run up the ramp leaps into the air and smacks the bell with his face, DONG goes the bell. The Chaplin with mouth agape says that was amazing but at noon he has to ring the bell 12 times. The boy gets up and runs and leaps DONG runs and leaps DONG runs and totally dazed misses the bell and flies out the window of the tower onto the ground below. By the time the Chaplin runs out of the bell tower to the boy a large crowd has gathered and so has the constable. The Chaplin knells down next to the boy and says my lad I never should have let you try. The constable says to the Chaplin do you know the boy, and the Chaplin says no but his face rings a bell.
