There is a leak in the dam, and the CyberSquad helps fix it to prevent damage from being done to the kingdom of Happily-Ever-After. The group initially tries using mud and sandbags to plug the hole, but those options don't work. Digit investigates the hole and notes that it's bigger on the inside of the dam than it is on the outside. Digit makes a model of the hole, and they use the model to create a solution.
