When a frantic cry echoes across the Rio Grande, a group of spirited boys aboard a motorboat spring into action, guided by their loyal bulldog companion. Their night‑time river cruise turns into a tense rescue as they chase a distant wailing voice and discover a young stranger sprawled on a rocky ledge. Together they must decide whether to risk the rushing current to save the mysterious youth.
The boys' quick thinking, humor, and teamwork set the stage for a daring adventure that blends danger with the thrill of exploration. As they work to lift the injured lad onto their boat, they confront the harsh realities of the river’s power and the unknown forces that brought him there. Listeners will be drawn into the suspenseful first act, eager to see how these courageous friends cope with the challenges ahead.
