 The next morning, some natives start a grass fire to keep the locusts away, causing Flintheart to run away and the others to follow him, as while the fire cannot reach them, it scares all the animals into stampeding.The ducks climb a tree for protection, and Scrooge shakes Flintheart's branch trying to drop his ball (with the title of richest duck at stake, he's not so above dishonesty), although he stops when scolded by Dewey.A rhinoceros hits the tree, causing Glomgold's ball to fall and be destroyed by a bird.
