boarding house
where Sandy stays. She thinks Nick is a
tenant
, gets to know him, and lets him stay in the boarding house. Nick meets Hector, whose mother, Isabel, is a
postal worker

She helps Nick get Buddy out of the zoo and back to the North Pole. Nick usually teleports himself in and out by mirror, but the only way the mirror works is by using
North Pole
snow. Buck Seger is a hunter who works at the zoo and has a crush on Sandy. He sees Nick as a rival and researches that Buddy is from the North Pole. He plans to sell Buddy to a
big-game hunter
. Nick, Sandy, Hector, and Isabel chase Buck all over town and rescue Buddy and send him back to the North Pole. On
