Banquine of course leads to the resolution of the show.

All too soon the red proscenium-like curtains of Quidam float into place, signaling that the end is near. Zoë makes her re-appearance through a man-hole with the assistance of our resident clown and she rejoins her family, who has finally taken note of the wondrous world around them. The Generics, androgynous characters dressed in white that appear in and disappear from the world of Quidam at will, have reappeared and have begun (with the assistance of John and Target) an energetic, ballet of happiness - dancing with each other, playing with one another and hopping, skipping and jumping around.

But a loud thunder crack sends them all to the stage where they lay motionless, lifeless and the Family is puzzled and insecure.

Quidam, who had been watching the final scene unfold from the depths of the stage, steps forward now to reclaim his blue bowler hat from Zoë; she is startled and becomes exasperated - she realizes he has come to take this fantastical world away from her! But a glance to the side shows her that the journey is not yet over - her family appears reanimated and full of life, which is what she wanted most. So, very reluctantly Zoë displaces the hat from her head, holds it in her arms and looks around one last time. Her white-garbed friends, who have been laying there lifeless, are now staring directly at her! She gently hands Quidam the hat, re-joins her newly-restored family and begins to sing (the signature song of the show.)

John removes the dad’s shoes and returns them to him (he stepped into them just after the living room floated away, figuratively taking his place) and the Generics come alive, slowly filling the edges of the stage. And once encapsulating the entire stage - and thus closing off the world of Quidam to us - they move to zipper away their hoods to reveal who they really are... the colorful artists in the show!
