In season 1 episode 7 of The Raccoons, entitled "The Runaways", Bert and Cedric decide to leave the city and start a new life as "wild raccoons". Their decision is based on the belief that they will finally be free from the constraints of society and able to live as their wild counterparts do.
As they venture out into the forest, they quickly realize that life as a wild raccoon is not quite what they imagined. They struggle to find food and shelter, and eventually stumble upon a group of actual wild raccoons. However, the group doesn't take kindly to Bert and Cedric's intrusion, and they are forced to flee.
Meanwhile, Ralph and Melissa are worried sick about their missing friends and begin to search the forest for them. They eventually stumble upon Bert and Cedric, who are tired, hungry, and ready to give up on their wild adventure. Ralph and Melissa convince them to return to their civilized life in the city, assuring them that there is enough freedom and adventure to be found there.
The episode highlights the contrast between the romanticized idea of living as a wild animal versus the realities of survival in the wilderness. It also emphasizes the importance of friendship, loyalty, and the value of a stable home life.
