Following Gans's failure to whack her with Yans, the latter dinosaur grabs a girder to help the former dino take her down, only to be distracted by some flowers. As a result, Gans and the girder fall off. Yans manages to scare Claudia with a roar, leading her hiding in the shell, and he manages to put her in the hole that Gans made. However, Yans inadvertently lands on Gans instead of Claudia in the end.
