Mal managed to find the tear relatively easily, following the trail of lost items and witness statements from people who saw kids go missing. She manages to navigate the labyrinth pretty easily, managing to get the correct path and dealing with any falling rocks or open chasms like she was born to do it. Once she gets to the dog, it launches into an immediate attack. Luckily, she has the weapons and skills to defeat it- much to the wonder of the children watching her. Once the beast is defeated, they flock around her, wide-eyed in wonder. A number of them ask if they can hold her lightsaber as she herds them out of the rift and back to their extremely grateful parents.

For her victory, Mal gets $1,200, a yellow Tonka truck and the adoration of a bunch of children. They continually fight over who gets to bring her to show-and-tell and she can't go anywhere without at least one of the little tykes finding her and following her, doe-eyed.
