Rose and Weldon arrive back at Rose’s house with Rain, and Wesley is surprised but not excited that Rain is back. Wesley and Weldon discuss the microchip situation while Rose goes into the house with Rain. As happy as she is that Rain is back, Rose feels that the dog still belongs to her past owners. Rose decides that she needs to try and find them on her own using their contact information from the microchip form.

Rose goes to school early one day and asks her teacher Mrs. Kushel how to connect a lost dog with its owners. She keeps the situation hypothetical, not wanting her teacher to know that the dog in question is Rain. Mrs. Kushel gives her some ideas and offers to help her publicize information. Because she would have to take a picture of Rain for “Found Dog” posters, Rose decides to wait to involve her teacher in her search for Rain’s owners. However, she and Weldon drive to the address listed in the microchip information and find a destroyed house site without anyone living there.
