== Plot ==
An orphanage owner tells the orphans a story about Amphibians living in Amphibia, shifting the film from live-action to animation. In the story, Wally walks out of Stumpy's Diner and greeting some Amphibians sitting nearby falls over some barrels before making his way down a road. As he plays his accordion and sings, he hears some bushes rustle, a twig crack and senses movement while a creature watches him. Feeling scared and turning back, he bumps into something with two wide eyes and screams as crows fly off in either direction.
