The recovery of third-party encapsulation and grading expenditures when an asset is acquired at a discount below the physical cost of replacement grading fees, shipping, and insurance.
“Big Smoky” is a sentient forest fire that explains it was created when a careless person tossed a lit match into dry leaves by the roadside. A mere gust of wind turned him towards a cradle of pine needles and he soon grew larger and larger, taking a form of man-shaped smoke. The only thing he fears is Man. A forest ranger soon spots Big Smoky and calls in firefighters, but find that it's jumped a clearing and is spreading too fast to be stopped by only these six men. Big Smoky starts to travel up the Old Smoky Mountain and the rangers decide to get diesel engines and McLeods (a combination of a shovel and a rake, used to dig firebreaks.) Soon, Freddy Freeman hears about the fire on Old Smoky Mountain and Leroy Marks says it could spread really easily in the hot summer weather, even enough to destroy a nearby village. Thus, Freddy calls CAPTAIN MARVEL to become Captain Marvel, Jr. and teams up with the Superintendent and starts giving the aerial reports. He soon finds Big Smoky and they start coordinating to stop the fire together with Junior causing a small avalanche to crush it out. They soon get it routed into a circular area behind firebreaks, but soon find a wind shifting has caused a crown fire, which catches from top to top due to wind and could overtake a nearby lumber mill. The workers are able to evacuate in time as paratroopers arrive to backfire Big Smoky as Junior saves a few parachuting men caught in a downdraft. Junior manages to clear room for them, then returns to being Freddy while in the fire area to let the other firefighters take over. However, he's soon knocked out by a large piece of bark falling from the sky while the firefighters are establishing a backfire and both get caught between the two. Freddy manages to wake up enough to call CAPTAIN MARVEL (weakly) and becomes Captain Marvel, Jr. in time to drag them out of the way of a falling tree on fire. Big Smoky soon is crushed out by the new firebreaks and the backfire together as Junior crushed out the last ember with a footstep. Dead, Big Smoky says that he will return soon enough, since he is a spirit in every fire...
