As Odon joins with Zila and Tops to talk about the plan, Spikefoot and his son reaches the other children.
"Girls, everyone," Spikefoot says, "there's something very important going on right now, and we need to rejoin and start hiding in the trees. The wise swimmer is warning all of the other swimmers as well, and the same goes for the rest of our herd."
Goanna looks over to the trio nearby. "What about Uncle Odon?"
"He, Tops, and Zila are working on a part of our anti-sharptooth plan. Our part is to hide in the trees and keep silent. Turio, I promised your father I will look after you until this ordeal is over, and I'll make the same promise to your father, Cera, after he finishes with talking over the plan."
Donna looks up at her dad. "You mean they're going to do something to that very mean sharptooth outside the Great Lake?"
"It's the Great Lake's curse," Guan answered, turning to the twin swimmers. "I'm sure you heard of it."

Odon meets with Zila and Tops to tell the threehorn the plan. "We don't have a lot of time before the bright circle falls from the sky. The wise old swimmer has just told us about a plan in dealing with that talking sharptooth. I'm sure Zila can explain the plan better than I."

Meanwhile, Grandma and Grandpa have finished explaining what's going on about the same plan to the other Great Valley dinosaurs.
"Spikefoot is talking to the children right now," Grandpa added, "and will soon rejoin us when we go hiding. Only Odon, Zila, and Tops...er Threehorn will be out in view of Chaser."
