"Well… you could try it, no harm in trying right? I trust you, Master…"
"If I try, I won't even exist anymore!"
Master was troubled: "But we can't just have Jerry absorbing the entire Fire River? That would surely violate the rules of the Small World, and then the Sun Sky Flame above us would fall, incinerating me and all of you."
Jerry Gourd stood firm: "I cannot undertake this heavy responsibility, I request Master to choose another!"
Master was just as resolute: "You're it, cooperate with Neil and this won't be as hard… The river isn't that wide… just about eight to nine yards, you can endure it." Before Jerry could refuse, Master had already thrown him into the Fire River.
Simultaneously, Jorge Gourd was also launched into the river—absorbing heat from Jerry Gourd, rather than directly from the Alva Fire.
"It's too hot, too hot, I'm gonna melt..." Jerry Gourd yelped, but the Master was already stepping onto him accompanied by Winston and Oliver Archibald.
