The Koala Brothers season 1 episode 19, titled "Sammy and the Bee," follows the two koala brothers, Frank and Buster, as they help a young kangaroo named Sammy overcome her fear of bees.
Sammy is scheduled to perform a dance routine with her friend, Mitzi, at the upcoming Outback Concert. However, she is terrified of bees and cannot focus on practicing because she constantly worries about them. Her fear is so intense that she even considers dropping out of the performance.
Buster and Frank notice Sammy's distress and offer to help her conquer her fear. They explain that bees are important for pollinating flowers and producing honey, and that they are generally harmless if left alone. The two brothers decide to take Sammy on a field trip to learn about bees and to help her gain a better understanding of the insects.
The Koala Brothers take Sammy to a nearby meadow where they observe a hive of bees collecting nectar from flowers. As they watch, Buster explains how bees communicate with each other, and how they work together as a community to maintain the hive and produce honey. Sammy becomes fascinated with the bees and begins to overcome her fear by learning more about them.
The next day, the trio heads to Mitzi's house to practice their dance routine. However, a bee flies into the room and Sammy immediately panics. The Koala Brothers quickly remind her of all the things they learned the previous day and try to reassure her that the bee will not harm her. Eventually, Sammy is able to calm down and continue with the practice.
The day of the Outback Concert arrives, and Sammy is still nervous about performing in front of a large audience. However, with Frank and Buster's encouragement, she manages to find the courage to dance. During the performance, a bee flies onto Sammy's nose, but instead of panicking, she manages to remain calm, which impresses Mitzi and the audience.
Overall, "Sammy and the Bee" is a heartwarming episode about facing fears and the power of knowledge. The Koala Brothers help teach Sammy that learning about something can help overcome one's fear of it. The episode also teaches viewers about the important role that bees play in the environment and how we should strive to protect them.
