Finally, his great-grandmother catches a small lizard for Liam and Liam decides to take it back to Canada. He names it Little Dinosaur, puts it in his pocket and boards the plane. The plane is crowded so Liam is sitting beside a woman who appears sad. He wants to cheer her up so he shows her his friend. She screams and knocks the matchbox holding Little Dinosaur over.
