skeleton_kingJack doesn't attempt to leave the custody of Gene as he leads the search party into the forest, map in hand.
There are a great many more doors now, each with a pumpkin, and as Jack comes into the vicinity they seem to give a little click.
He turns to the search party.
"Spread out and search each area of the forest." he says. "There is likely to be monsters behind these doors, preventing the retrieval of the first Santy Claws. Your Santy Claws is, I think, in the hands of a creature called Oogie Boogie, the former king of Bug Day, who appears as a big sack full of bugs. If you find him, or you get into trouble, shout for help at once. The other monsters should not hurt you too severely, but they will attack, so your best bet is to force them back into the door."

He turns to Rikki.
"Then this definitely wasn't the monster who kidnapped Santa. Let's go and look somewhere else..."
But at that moment, an unearthly wail is heard, and the are called to another part of the forest.
