Driving the Fishy Frog

But sometimes life doesn't play by the rules and when Ben and Ash find their Grandad is dying after a snake bite, it's up to them to him to safety. There's only one way it's going to happen. Someone will have to drive the Fishy Frog over the rocks and through the treacherous sand.
