The last thing you want at breakfast is to be overrun by a foul smell. So, on the hunt to find the source of such a horrid aroma, Professor Grey Goose and his friends, Gwendolyn and Gertrude, search Sale Wetlands. They are on their way to Lake Guyatt, and who do they meet? Why, Mr Tortoise and Mr Goanna, of course. And poor Mr Goanna. He has become unwell. What is in the water that seems to be causing him trouble? Luckily, the Professor is on the case!
