Ep 13. The Nature Of Friendship/The Ship Shop

THE NATURE OF FRIENDSHIP While Fig's sleeping, Stick follows a whale's song and leaves the ship. Fig wakes and sets off to find him. Along the way, Fig learns from creatures in nature. He marvels at how ants can carry leaves much bigger than them, is awed by a walk through a beautiful thicket woven by a Bird of Paradise and helps to open a cluster of flowers so hungry butterflies can have a drink. By befriending these creatures, they point him toward Stick. When Fig finally finds Stick sitting on a little island, he runs out and gives him a hug. Suddenly, the ants, the bird and the butterflies arrive. Fig introduces his new friends to Stick. And Stick sings a whale song that makes the island rise, revealing Stick's new friend, Bonsai the whale. And Bonsai gives them a ride home as they all sing together. THE SHIP SHOP Ginkgo the Crab hauls in a present, but can't open it and accidentally flings it into the Finding Place. On his way to the Finding Place, Fig knocks open a crate of old finds. His old wagon sparks the idea of using it as a shopping cart for a Ship Shop! The barnacles remind Fig about the present, but he keeps getting distracted by past items. Fig helps Maple and Pebble find royal costumes at the "Suds & Duds Clothing and Hats Shop". In the "Find and Feast Pantry," Fig and the chickens use old finds to collect groceries. And Fig combines old finds into multi-functional toys at the "Two-In-One Toy Shop". When he finally remembers the present, he's having so much fun that he doesn't need anything new. But, Fig sees Ginkgo on the beach and offers it to him and he's overjoyed!
