Official description

Aree faces an unusual challenge when the common cold turns out to be anything but, as he endeavors to restore a wampa to good health.

Plot summary

Representing the Galactic Society of Creature Enthusiasts, SF-R3 (referred to as "Aree") and CAM travel to Hoth to provide care for a wampa afflicted with the common cold. After maneuvering through the snowy landscape, Aree uses a thermometer to assess the wampa's temperature. Upon discovering the creature is feverish, he swaddles it in a blanket and attempts to administer medication. However, the wampa initially resists cooperation. Aree then attempts to bathe the creature in a bath tank, but the spray hose malfunctions. Subsequently, Aree starts a fire for the wampa, which induces sweating and sneezing, resulting in a shower of snow. This snow ultimately alleviates the wampa's fever, restoring it to a healthy state.

Aree concludes that the optimal treatment for a wampa cold involves increased exposure to cold. Aree then contemplates how he can avoid becoming the creature's next meal. Aree shares several interesting facts, including the wampa's classification as a mammal and its habit of suspending its prey upside down.
