Tracy and Sam use tear gas to drive Open-Mind Monty from his greenhouse hideaway. Tracy reveals that Monty's knife in the skull is nothing more than clever make-up. Meanwhile, B. O.

O.'s property, and as he and Gertie sleep through the storm, Sparkle and WIngy try to save their wading pool only to find themselves swept away by the flood waters.
