After seeing the Kayvan site, most of the rescue party gave up and went home. Convinced by Abner’s dog, old blue, dick and Cedric have remained to persist that digging. Grandpap was sent back to town to get some rest, and he has taken Old Blue with him.
In town, grandpap talks with Squire. There were some clues that he wanted to run down, but they’ve all proven to be dead ends. Mystified by the disappearance of Lum and Abner, they take phone calls from as far away as Oklahoma. Grandpap would like to hear that they were in jail there, but it appears it’s time to even call those searches off.
Back in the woods, a breakthrough in the cave-in looks hopeful. Will Dick and Cedric find their friends and time? The first glance into the cave reveals a set of eyes. Is that a wildcat? The forms of Lum and Abner lay sprawled in the floor, and they’re not moving.
