Jim and Garth set out to explore the cave. Jim realizes that Frost Cave may hold the answers to that scene. The scene shows people running into a hole in the riverbank. Then Garth reveals that he has found an ancient mural on the bank of a nearby river. Jim is among the boys who tease Garth until Jim becomes something of an outcast himself for refusing to bend to peer pressure.
