During many days of rain, Toby is asked to investigate a dam during rainy weather, and discovers it is about to burst its banks. Toby hurries to get to higher ground, but the bridge he is on is swept away after the dam collapes. Harold drops a rope to be tied to Toby's bufferbeam and gives the other end to Percy.
