Back at the Veterinary clinic, Elvis arrives in Venus with the rescue pad, Arnold is attempting to get Woolly to come to him and Sam and Lizzie advises him to talk to Woolly calmly, but in the end it's Arnold who manages to fall onto the safety pad below and Sam ends up rescuing Woolly.

Suddenly, the horse speeds off and ends up getting stuck in some mud and the twins call for help. Sam, Arnold and Ellie respond to the rescue call along with their new multi purpose 4x4 Phoenix.
