Frogs, plumbing

I'm in the basement of our North Carolina house. My vivariums are in this room.

Water starts slowly pouring in from a crack in the ceiling. My dad fixes it and leaves. I notice there are a few froglets - offspring of my pets - in the wet area. Pulling up the carpet. I find more frogs and the insects they've been eating to survive. There are so many frogs that I have to put some in a tank with a different species. Some are unrealistically skinny and I blame myself for not realizing I had all these froglets to take care of.

I decide I need to go get another aquarium and prepare ton drive to a store. Just as I decide this, my dad comes back with two friends. One is a professional plumber, the other not but handy.

Water starts coming in very quickly through several places in the ceiling.

I thought the first leak in the ceiling was because of rain, the plumber figure tells me it's coming from a pipe.
