    What is happening here? Tub overflow wierdness

    Hello everyone!! My second floor tub leaks out the front of my house when my kids bathe and slosh water to the front of the tub and overflow. I attempted to replace the gasket but this does not look as I expected. Any Idea what is going on? Is this tub failure and the pipe pushed through?
