The newly-opened city was working great and the Mayor's Conference intended to commemorate the opening was going well, in spite of the heavy rain. Joshua and Stephanie were just two part-time waiters helping to make the conference go as smoothly as possible. But when the nearby levee breaks and the Hudson River begins to flood the city from above, the building, along with the conference it is being held in, begins to be pummeled and destroyed by the raging rapids. The city, as well as its citizens, is plunged into total panic and turmoil.
