Oh, everything's such a mess after that big storm last night.

Ooh, don't worry, Wendy. We'll soon get everything tidied up.

Hey, you two! You're supposed to be helping, not splashing!

Oh! Nasty, wet water.

-You're not worried about a bit of water, are you?

-Er...oh.

We're not worried about getting wet, are we, Muck?

No way!

Ooh, er, neither am I.

Morning, team. We've got an urgent job.

the harbour pier fell down in the storm.

We've got to go and rebuild it now.

-What's a pier, Bob?

-I'll show you when we get to the harbour, Lofty.

Come on, team!

So that's what the old pier looked like.

But now it's gone.

Yes, Muck. We need to build a new one by the end of the day.

Ooh, we'd better hurry, then.

Yeah! Can we fix it?

ALL: Yes, we can!

Ooh, er, yeah... I think so.

GULL CALLS

Scoop?

I need you to clear all the broken bits from the old pier platform.

-No prob, Bob!

-And Dizzy, can you pour some more concrete to make it level?

-OK, Bob!

-Then I'll make it nice and flat.

Er...what about me, Bob?

You'll be lowering the new wooden posts into the sand, Lofty.

-Then we'll build the new pier on top.

-Let's get started!

Er...Bob? Why did the pier fall down?

It was really old, Lofty, and the wooden posts had gone rotten.

See? The wood's gone all soft.

That's what happens when you stay in the water too long. Ha-ha!

Yeah! Watch out, Muck. Don't get your wheels wet.

I knew getting wet wasn't a good idea.

We have to work fast while the tide is out.

-Does the sea move?

-Yes, Lofty.

At high tide, the water comes right up here.

At low tide, it's further away.

Ooh. Er, right.

So the sea isn't here now...

but it's coming back.

GULL SQUAWKS

Oh, I don't want to get wet and fall apart like the old pier did.

GULL SQUAWKS

Ooh, Bob? Where should I start putting the posts in?

Well, Lofty, the end of the pier used to be...

just where that float is.

Wight by the water? Oh, er... OK, Bob.

LOFTY GASPS

Whoa!

That's it! Closer, Lofty.

Oh, er... It's just that...er...

ARGH!

Oh, no!

-Sorry, Bob.

-Never mind, Lofty. We've got a few more.

MOBILE RINGS

Hello. Bob the builder.

Oh, yes, we DO need some more.

I'll send Lofty. Thanks. Bye.

Lofty, I need you to go to the supplier's yard

-and pick up some more posts and planks, please.

-OK, Bob.

But how do I get there? I can't remember.

Bob! Can you help with the cement, please?

Yes, just coming.

Roley, can you tell Lofty the way to the supplier's yard?

-I've just got to go and help Dizzy.

-OK, Bob!

You need to go along the coast road, Lofty, then turn right...

The coast road? Oh, that's near the sea.

Oh. I think I'll go through the hills, instead.

But the coast road's much quicker! And we've never been the other way.

Ooh, er, which way is it?

That way?

No, this way...

I hope.

There, finished.

-But where's Lofty with the wood?

-MOBILE RINGS

Hello? Bob the builder.

Oh, right.

OK, thank you.

That was the supplier's yard. Lofty hasn't even arrived yet.

He wouldn't take the coast road, Bob. He went through the hills.

Oh. Well, Grabber's on his way to look for him.

But I wonder why he went the wrong way.

It wasn't that way, so, er, it must be this way!

Hello, mate. where have you been?

Oh, Grabber. I've been trying to find the supplier's yard.

Don't worry. Follow me.

Oh, I'm sorry I'm late. I got a bit lost.

Why didn't you take the coast road, like I said?

Because, er...it goes near the sea.

Lofty! You're back!

We've got to fit the last of those posts - the tide's coming in.

Is it finished now, Bob?

Almost, Lofty. I just need some paint.

Er, can I test out the pier while you're gone, Bob?

Of course! See you in a minute.

Whoo! It'll be fun to be out here while the sea comes back in.

Oh! The sea?! Is it coming closer?

DIZZY GASPS Lofty! What have you done?!

I can't get back!

Oh, no!

My tyres are going to disappear in the water like the pier did.

But I'll save you, Dizzy!

Must save Dizzy before water comes in.

Oh, going for a swim, Lofty?

What? Oh, no!

Ahh!

Lofty! You were brilliant! You rescued me!

I know, but my tyres got wet in the sea.

Now I'm going to fall apart like the pier did.

Ho-ho-ho! Lofty!

-that won't happen to you.

-Oh, won't it?

-No!

Wood CAN fall apart in the water eventually

but your tyres aren't made of wood.

they're waterproof.

Oh...er...phew!

There. IT looks just like the old one. Well done, team!

You were really brave, Lofty.

I didn't know you were worried about the water.

Yeah, sorry we splashed you.

Oh, it's OK. I'm not worried any more.

See?

THEY LAUGH
