The team of pups make their way through the streets looking for a map of Adventure City. While they do that, Max asks her sister about their disguises.
Max: Hey, sis? (Lily looks at Max) Why are dressed like Bob Marley is our owner?
Chase: (talks in Jamaican) Bob Marley is good, mon. Dude got talent.
The pups share a laugh at Chase's acting. As they walk, Tundra seems to stop at a map near a subway.
Chase: Just be glad that the disguises she picked doesn't make us look like German immigrants.
Winter: Why?
Chase: I may be a German Shepherd, but I don't and can't speak German.
Sage: Valid point. I'll take your word for it.
Tundra: (looks up at a the map she saw earlier) Hey, guys! Over here!"
The pups rush over to their friend and see that it is a map of Adventure City.
Aurora: If my navigation skills are correct, if this is us (points to red arrow saying "You Are Here" southeast from the observatory, which is marked with a yellow and black arrow saying "Condemned") Then we look northwest from there, (Skye looks off the map and sees the observatory from where she is) then that condemned building must be - -"
Skye: Guys! I found it!
The pups look the same way as Skye and they see it on a cliff where it always was.
Aurora: Oh. There it is. (Smiles)
Later the pups climb on top of that roof at subway stations above the subway tunnels. They figured that they could fly from there without being noticed. Chase and Junior came up first by using the trash cans by the subway station as stools. Junior helped Winter as Chase helped Skye. Then Winter helped Lily as Skye helped Rocky. Rocky helped Tundra as Lily helped Sage. Tundra helped Aurora when Rocky started looking for Max. He was still on the ground. Chase comes over.
Chase: What are you doing down there, Max?
Max: To be honest, I can't climb on the trash cans and leap onto the roof like you and Junior did. In fact, I . . . can't climb. And I'm afraid of heights.
Lily: (with Chase looking at her like "Tell me he's not lying") It's true.
Skye: Well, maybe you're only scared because you haven't tried yet. Just hop on those trash cans and we'll help you.
Max gulps nervously as he looks at this obstacle. He then got his front legs on top. At least he got his upper body to get up to the trash can lid. His legs move, trying to find a place to help him steady his way up. Once he got his entire body on one of the trash cans, he stands proudly as the other pups cheered for him. But when Max jumped up to the edge of the roof, he kicked off the lid of the trash can he was on. Then, once grabbed hold of the ledge, he slipped and fell into the trash cans. The pups look over with concern and worry. Max pops hi head out with a banana peel on his face. Lily starts to laugh, but tries to cover it so she could not embarrass her younger, but taller-by-height brother. Chase and Sage both reach down to grab onto Max. Tundra and Rocky grab their legs and lower their friends down to get Max. Chase tells Rocky to stop, then they stop, nearly off the roof. Chase and Sage reached their arms out for Max to grab on. The pup grabs onto his cousin and father's arms and they gave Rocky and Tundra the signal to pull them back onto the roof. Then Max is on top, finally.
Chase: Maybe I'll teach climbing and jumping to you when this is over.
Sage: Okay, if anybody has seen Iron Man 3 where Stark saved the people from falling from Air Force One, (the jet, not the movie) and asked the people to make a monkey ladder, we should do the same thing except Skye's going to fly us to the observatory. Does anyone understand?
Everyone nods as everyone clings onto each other. Chase and Lily are on opposing sides of Skye as she gets ready to fly.
Skye: These pups gotta fly!
And she takes off, with everyone else hanging on. Sage, his sisters, Junior and Max are enjoying themselves as they have a few clouds in their faces. Lily, on the other hand, was holding on tightly more than the others. She whimpers and Skye looks to her future daughter, with care and understanding in her eyes.
Skye: It's alright. I didn't want to fly either when I was younger than your age.
Lily: But how? Flying was your dream.
Skye: I was actually more scared than you when my helicopter was built for the first time.
Lily: (chuckles) I highly doubt that.
Skye: (smirking) Did you ALSO hide in a tree, refusing to come down at the sight of an air vehicle in front of you?
Lily: (giggling) No. Wait, you did that?! (Skye nods) Okay, I gotta admit. You had more of the first-day jitters more than I do. Dad thought I could be a great leader. He said that to me. Both past. (Looks to present Chase) And future.
Skye: He's not wrong. If Chase wasn't chosen as second-in-command, you'd lead the entire team.
Lily: Hey, mom?
Skye: Yeah?
Lily: We (giggling) passed the observatory.
Skye: Oh shoot! Hang on, guys! (She swerved down still with the others monkey-laddering onto the aviator pup, hanging for dear life. Skye then landed on top of the observatory roof.) That wasn't so bad, was it?
Chase, Junior, and Sage's fur were ruffled like as if they just rolled out of bed. Max, Lily, Winter and Aurora on the other hand ask if they could do it again. And I guess this means Lily lost her fear of flying sooner than Skye did. Back to the task at hand, the pups look down from the hole on the roof. But the hole was too small to see.
Aurora: Darn it. This was years before the roof broke and we'd be in there easily.
Max: I got an idea.
He's gets a telescope coming out of his PupPack and puts it in the hole, fitting perfectly. Chase looks through and describes the situation.
Chase (saying what he sees): Our friends are in chains. Victor is walking victoriously. Wait! He's saying his plan!
Sage: What? (Everyone puts their ears to tiny but open holes in the roof.)
Victor E. Vance: Man. You dudes were weaker than yourselves in the future. But doing this will make your future end ever so swiftly. I'm sending all of you to the Ice Age, where you could freeze to death, face the extinction of life forms, or get stepped on by a mammoth. I don't care. At least it's a very COOL way to go, eh? Haha!
Marshall: Not the Ice Age! I didn't pack anything!
Junior thought to himself, "That's my dad. The jokester."
Ryder: You won't get away with this easily. The PAW Patrol will still stop you.
Victor E, Vance: How? Four of your friends are gone and so are their future kids. And all I did was move and they fell like leaves. How the mighty have fallen, man. It's awful. Awful for you guys, tho. (Laughs)
Then, Sage leans closer and breaks a new hole in the roof, landing on a couch thankfully. Everyone inside the building takes notice of Sage's entrance. Rocky rolls his eyes and nods at Chase, then he and Lily nod back. At the same time, they jumped to the couch Sage landed on and they stand heroically.
Zuma: You were saying?
Victor E. Vance: I . . . I thought you were - -
Lily: Let me guess. "History"? No way, Son of Frankenstein!
Tundra: Hey, that's a good movie title.
Victor E, Vance: Well you're too late now! (Flips a switch and a portal opens) This portal will make living popsicles out of your friends, considering in where they're going.
Sage: Not in my watch!
Max: Sage, don't - -
Then Sage slips on a wrench, which bends the lever out of its mechanism and makes the portal go bonkers, making the gravity inside the room ever so strange! Rocky uses this to his advantage and tries to free his friends. But Victor pulls him away and throws him to a wall. Tundra, saying to Victor that he'll regret doing that to Rocky, uses the weird gravity and leaps to Victor,, pinning him to the ground. Then, the portal starts changing colors!
What has happened? What WILL happen? Will the pups save their friends? Will they stop Victor? And will I ever get to bed? Find out in the next chapter of PAW Patrol: Fragile Futures!
