Left behind

One year, after another fun filled and exciting crashfest at A.J.'s Adventure Land, the Hoerr gang piled into the vans for the ride home. All of the Hoerr children and teens politely discussed who had won each race. Little did they know that one little nine-year-old boy was missing.

Philip had just beaten the second level in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game at A.J.'s when he realized he should probably check to see if the family was leaving soon. None of the vans were in the parking lot, and it soon dawned on him that that everyone was gone and he was left, all alone, at A.J.'s.

An elderly lady stopped by when she heard his crying and led him into see the manager. They gave Philip a free slushee and some popcorn to settle him down. By then, he was calm enough to stutter out that he was staying at the McVoy cottage. They sent the police to the house, and soon after, two worried parents came speeding back to pick him up.

Ben and Tina claim innocence, saying it was Hap's fault for not checking who all was in his van on the way back from A.J.'s. Thankfully, no one has been left behind again.
