Sam and Ellie were downstairs talking about the damage to Jupiter and the history with their older version of Jupiter before she joined with Arnold. He told her about the controls getting stuck on a training exercise and then Ellie looked at him and asked him. "What happened to Jupiter after that?"

"Well... I had to book Jupiter for a refit and then we got called out to Bella's cafe because Mike was on the roof with no ladder during a neighborhood watch."

"Who started that Neighborhood watch program?"

"Station Officer Steele did. Apparently, crime rates were high and Pontypandy was soon next on the list. We started it immediately."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

Sam and Ellie were about to talk about Jupiter some more when Penny walked in. She was getting the shopping list off of the counter for the Christmas Eve Party at the Fire Station. Penny knew there wasn't enough at the cut-price store and that she needed to get to Cardiff. The shop was open and Penny needed to get there before the snow could block her from getting there. "Oh, hey, Penny. Can you by any chance find some pain meds for Ellie in case Helen didn't have any for her?" Sam asked.

"Yeah... Sure. I'm heading to the store anyway. I'll stop by the pharmacy on my way over. Ok?"

"No problem. Stay safe out there."

"You too."

Penny went down to find Venus in the Garage and then she left for Cardiff. The time shows about 12:00 in the afternoon and then she realized that the cold weather was hitting Pontypandy and that the snow was falling to the ground. Penny drove through several roads covered in snow and then she came across Newtown.

Back on the mountain,

Sarah was hiding from Mandy who was looking for them with snowballs. She was waiting to see if she could find her way out of Mandy's way in order to be the last one found. Mandy later spotted Hannah and she threw the snowball right at her. "Got you, Hannah!" She shouted.

"OH! Mandy. You got me on that one."

"Did I? Well... I wonder where Norman, Sarah, and James are."

"I don't know. We'll have to keep looking for them."

"Where do you think Norman has got to?"

"Let's try the west of Pontypandy Mountain."

"Good idea."

Hannah and Mandy went to find Norman and James. They were just about to head towards the west of Pontypandy Mountain when Mandy saw Sarah. "Wait a minute..." Said Mandy.

Mandy threw her snowball at Sarah and she was found in an instant. "Wow, Mandy. You found me... Um... Where's James?" Sarah asked.

"No idea, Sarah. We're going to find them. Wanna join us?"

"Yeah... Sure..."

Sarah was worried that James may have gotten lost in the snow while playing hide and seek. He wasn't alone since Norman was also missing and they were in the snow which is getting deeper by the hour. They needed to find them before the snow causes more trouble for them.

Out in Cardiff,

Penny had arrived at the shops in Cardiff. She arrived at ASDA (UK version of Wal-Mart in the United States) where she needed to get the items for the Christmas dinner. As she was on duty, Venus was allowed to park in the Fire Lanes without any problem and Penny walked into the shop. She found a trolley since there was a lot she needed. As Penny was looking around, she saw one of her old friends from the time they were in the Fire Academy. "Jason?" She asked.
