When the Bears come back, they realize that someone has been in their home. They each ask ‘Who’s been sitting in my chair?’, ‘Who’s been eating my porridge?’, and ‘Who’s been sleeping in my bed?’ until they finally find Goldilocks asleep in the baby bear’s bed. Goldilocks then wakes up and runs away.
