Why do I have a wet spot on the floorboard?

There is a wet spot on the floorboard of my car right in front of the passenger seat. The carpet around the spot is not wet. We dried it out and the wet spot came back right away.

The drain tube for the air conditioning is plugged. Look under the hood for a 4" long rubber tube hanging down on the passenger side of the firewall. Squeeze it to open it up and hopefully dislodge the blockage. If nothing comes out, squeeze the wire ring that holds it on, then pull it off. Stick a pencil into the plastic spout to unblock it.
