The cooks ran towards it but the hippos stopped them and beat them back because they felt threatened and thought the cooks had came to kill their baby's, it was then that the potato ran away out of the poop only to slip and fall and roll down a hole, which assuming from the baby's inside it playing with hippo poop was the main toilet.
