They offer her sympathy and try to assure her of safety, especially from Farmer Brown's boy, who is kind-hearted and leaves food for her. However, Mrs. Quack remains distrustful due to her past experiences with humans. As the story unfolds, Peter Rabbit and Sammy Jay devise a plan to help Mrs. Quack find Mr. Quack.
