Arnold hosts a protest rally against FTI. However, their permit is stolen by Schecks employees, and the protest is subsequently declared illegal. The failure of the rally encourages many of Arnolds neighbors to give up and sell their homes to FTI. As the residents begin packing their belongings, Grandpa Phil tells the story of the Tomato Incident, a major Revolutionary War battle fought in the city. Arnold learns from a local historian that the neighborhood was declared a historic district after the war, effectively ensuring its preservation, but that the legal documents granting it landmark status had been sold to a collector, who is none other than Scheck himself. When confronted, however, he denies having the document and kicks Arnold and Gerald out of his office.As the boys are about to give up, Arnold gets a mysterious phone call from Deep Voice, who informs Arnold that the document is hidden in Schecks office safe. Arnold and Gerald manage to steal the key to the safe from Schecks assistant Nick. Nick later notices the missing key and informs Scheck. Meanwhile, Phil and the boarders try to develop a backup plan in case Arnold fails to get the document. Phil concocts a plan to wire the storm drain tunnels beneath their street with dynamite to destroy FTIs construction equipment. ........
