It was a misty morning in Adventure Bay. The sky was grey, the waves were high, and the lighthouse on the cliff blinked slowly through the fog.
Mayor Goodway rushed to the Lookout. “Ryder! The lighthouse isn’t working properly! Ships won’t be able to find the harbor in this weather!”
Ryder gathered the team. “We need to fix the lighthouse before it gets dark. Skye, I need you to fly above and check the light from the air. Chase, set up safety cones around the cliff. Rocky, bring tools in case we need to repair something. And Everest, it’s slippery up there—you’ll help keep everyone safe.”
“All paws on deck!” the pups cheered.
As the team climbed the narrow path to the lighthouse, the fog grew thicker. “I can barely see my paws,” said Chase, using his flashlight to guide the way.
Inside, Rocky examined the light. “It’s not broken… but something’s blocking it from turning!” He shone his flashlight upward—and saw a nest built right on top of the rotating light!
“There’s a family of seagulls living up there,” said Skye, who had landed nearby. “That’s why it can’t spin properly.”
“We can’t move the birds—they have chicks,” Ryder said. “But we can still help the ships!”
Everest had an idea. “What if we create a second light? One that points to the harbor just for tonight?”
The pups sprang into action. Rocky used spare parts to build a strong spotlight, and Skye flew it to a nearby hilltop where it could shine safely. Chase helped aim it in the right direction, and Everest made sure everyone stayed safe on the slippery path.
As the sun set and the fog thickened, the new light beamed through the mist like a golden arrow. Soon, Captain Turbot’s boat appeared, guided safely by the Paw Patrol’s light.
“You pups saved the day!” said Mayor Goodway. “And the birds didn’t have to move at all!”
That evening, the team watched the lighthouse blink in the fog—this time with a new understanding. Sometimes the mystery isn’t something broken… it’s something that just needs a gentler solution.
