The show follows Bob, Dizzy, Scoop, Roley, Lofty, and other machines as they solve problems and build amazing structures.
In episode 3 of season 18, titled "Rubble and the Seagull Surprise," Rubble is given a very important task. He is put in charge of building a special new home for some seagulls. The seagulls need a new home because their current nesting area has been damaged by the weather. Rubble is excited to take on this project and sets to work right away.
As Rubble starts building the new home, he discovers that his materials are being stolen by a rather mischievous seagull. The seagull steals a roll of tape and flies off with it, leaving Rubble to figure out how to finish his project without the tape. Rubble tries to catch the seagull, but it's too fast for him.
While Rubble is trying to find a solution to his missing tape problem, Bob and the other machines are busy with their own projects. Scoop, Lofty, and Dizzy are finishing up a garden pavilion, and Roley is fixing a broken fence. But when Bob sees that Rubble is struggling, he tells the other machines to pause their work and help Rubble finish his project.
The team comes up with a plan to outsmart the seagull. They create a decoy roll of tape, which the seagull takes away, thinking it is the real thing. With the seagull distracted, Rubble is finally able to finish his project and build the seagulls a new home.
After completing the new home, the team is surprised to find that the seagulls have left their old nest and are already settling into their new home. The seagull who had been causing all of the trouble returns with the fake roll of tape, which he drops at their feet as if to say thank you.
