For his failure, Diego is sent to find and retrieve the baby.Later, Sid and Manny spot Roshan and his mother near the lake, having survived her plunge.

After much persuasion by Sid, they decide to return Roshan, but when they reach the human settlement, they find it deserted. They meet up with Diego, who convinces the pair to let him help by tracking the humans. The four travel on, with Diego secretly leading them to his pack for an ambush. ........
