Bud and Leopold were out and about when they saw a note in a bottle wash upon the beach.
The message inside of it said: 'Help me! Kapp'n's boat broke down and it's really hot out here and I'm really scared of being eaten alive by a shark! Whoever gets this, please get a boat and save me! -Ursala.'
Despite them being amused by her 'fear', the boys got themselves a boat out of Bud's house, and paddled as badly and as fast as they could to Kapp'n's boat.
'Oh thank you thank you! I don't know what I would've done without you boys!' Ursala exclaimed when they pulled up.
'Yeah? Think you could finally stop insulting us and spreading false rumors about us as a thank you?' Leopold asked.
'Oh yes, I will!'
But alas. The very next day, a rumor went about that Bud never really was athletic at all. And guess who started the rumor?
'Why did we help her out again? My arms are really sore from all that rowing!' Bud asked, annoyed.
'Because helping people is the right thing to do, even if they are your gossip spreading neighbors.' Leopold replied.
'Yeah but still… Did it have to be one of the snootiest neighbors in town?'
'Can't pick your damsels in distress, man. Believe me, I wish I could.'
