Dennis Stockle has taken over the Dumping Ground, and there are notices everywhere banning everything allowed before "By Order of Dennis Stockle". A fire breaks out in the attic. Dennis thinks Harry is responsible because he was playing with joss sticks, but it wasn't. Gus's notebooks have been burnt and Dennis locks the attic. Tracy and Gus start an investigation into the fire and enter the attic, but Gus falls through the floor and lands on Lily's bed. Dennis fires Tracy, and subsequently tries to frame Lizanne for the fire at Burnywood. It is revealed that Dennis started the Dumping Ground fire by smoking in the attic and when found out he is forced to resign his job.
