He quickly ran away perhaps when he heard the bear coming.  Now the bear did not go in search of apples on the tree, but rather decided to lay down and take a snooze!  He woke up a little later, wandered back over the fence.  Then the raccoon seeing that the coast was clear, decided to retrieve his midnight snack.  He grabbed the apple and left a little after the bear.  Nightlife at the monastery is always exciting.
