The Penguins regrouped at the bottom of the inversed funnel around the item which was felt to be cold and tried to feel whether it could be the tip of the ice-cap. They however quickly understood that they were indeed trying to grab the left foot of one of them who was languishing there with a profound melancholy, hence the coldness of his bottom part. The yellow butterfly protested vehemently arguing that proceeding in this manner would not be extremely fruitful and called upon all the Penguins to cooperate fully in order to find the ice-cap. A very tense moment followed during which a number of sharp words were exchanged and duly classified. A truce was eventually pronounced and all promised to rally around the common cause.
