While Neeka's father and Scott nurse an eagle that has become sodden from a fall in the lake, Lassie protects the bird's baby from a lynx.

Neeka must take charge when Lassie breaks a leg in a trap on a hike--and a wolf is stalking them.

After surviving a boat explosion that traps Neeka's father, Lassie braves icy waters to find Neeka and Scott.

Scott and Lassie stay with Neeka and his dad Dean Chalmers for a couple of days, and Neeka has the weekend to finish a biology report. While collecting leaves, he and Lassie meet Mr. Bowers, a lonely man who limps due to an injury and has turned his back on society. After Lassie and Neeka uncover Mr. Bowers' scientific knowledge and help him when he is hurt, Mr. Bowers realises he wants human company after all.

Neeka tries to drive his father's truck, which subsequently catches fire after bumping over a rock, and explodes in a ball of flame. Three terrified horses nearby break out of their corral and run off. After Neeka, Lassie and Dean put out the fire, they find the horses, including Neeka's horse Cloudy, who has been hurt in the escape.
