Octonauts and the Tree Lobsters Octonauts

-SIREN WAILS

-'Octonauts, to your stations!'

Barnacles!

Kwazii!

Peso!

-Explore!

-Rescue!

-Protect!

Octonauts!

Hold still, Mr Lobster.

-There. Good as new.

-Ah, thanks, mate.

Dashi to Peso, come in, Peso.

There's a storm heading your way and it looks like a big one.

Thanks, Dashi. I'll head back to the Octopod right away.

That's the problem. The storm is moving fast.

You won't make it back in time.

Peso, your best option is to get in the GUP-E

-and find a safe place to wait it out.

-Aye-aye, Captain.

-I'll check back in when the storm passes.

-Stay safe, Peso.

It'll be safe down here. Come on.

Good idea. I'll just get the GUPE.

Oh, no!

Whoa!

Captain, come in, Captain. Whoa!

I don't believe it. Ah!

Just a little further. Whoa!

This shrub is the perfect place to wait out the storm.

Well, it's kept us safe for many, many years.

Who said that?

-G'day, mate.

-Flappety-flippers!

There's no need to be frightened. It's only us tree lobsters.

-Tree lobsters?

-Now, now, give him space, fellas.

We don't get guests up here very often.

I'm Old Howie. At your service.

I'm Peso. You actually live up here?

Yes, of course.

But, it's a giant rocky spike in the middle of the ocean.

Ah, you must be wondering how we got here.

Well... Actually, I can't seem to remember.

It all happened so long ago, you see.

But we made a happy little home for ourselves up here.

How many of you are there?

-Only 24 at the last count.

-ALL: Hello.

-But once these eggs hatch, there'll be a few more.

-Oh.

Oh, goodness me, where are my manners?

You must be exhausted.

Rest up, my friend. We'll look after you tonight.

Thanks. I just think I need to rest my eyes for a bit.

HE SNORES

Oh! Oh!

Old Howie? Tree lobsters?

Oh, where did they go?

Tree lobsters or no tree lobsters,

I'd better get back to the Octopod.

Oh, looks like there's only one way down.

-Ahoy there, matey.

-Kwazii, Captain.

Glad to see you're all right, Peso.

We found the GUPE, but we've been searching for you all morning.

You won't believe what happened to me last night.

You can tell us all about it back at the Octopod.

Climb aboard. Let's get you home.

There were only 24 of them and they all lived under this one tiny

-shrub, but then, when I woke up, they were gone.

-Yiaow!

Based on our location,

it sounds like you washed up here on Balls Pyramid.

Strange. Balls Pyramid has been explored many, many times

and nobody has ever found any tree lobsters.

I've never even heard of a tree lobster before.

Peso, are you sure it wasn't all just a dream?

It's not unusual to have strange dreams

when you're in a dangerous situation.

I don't know. Maybe it was all a dream.

-I believe you, matey.

-You do?

I've heard enough strange tales to know there's usually

a scrap of truth behind them.

There's got to be something in the library about these

tree lobsters of yours. Come on.

Mysterious island monsters, castaway creatures,

exotic beasts of land and sea.

Kwazii, it's been hours and we still haven't found anything

about tree lobsters.

Just a few more books, matey.

Whoops! A tree lobster.

A-ha. I knew we'd find them.

Listen to this.

Lord Howe's Island stick insects or tree lobsters once lived

-on islands off the coast of Australia.

-Shiver me whiskers.

It's amazing, isn't it?

Unfortunately, no-one has seen a living tree lobster in many years.

I see one right now and it's on your head.

HE SQUEAKS

A baby tree lobster.

I must have somehow brought one of the eggs back with me.

We'd better get you back home.

He's getting away.

Kwazii, Peso, what's going on?

There's a real-life tree lobster loose on the ship.

We have to catch him, Captain. Sound the Octo-alert.

Octonauts to the... No, Octonauts to the launch...

Erm, follow that tree lobster.

MUSIC PLAYS

Incredible. I've never seen anything like it.

Ha-ha, we knew that tree lobsters were real, didn't we, Peso?

He's heading for the kitchen. Watch out, vegimals.

-Ow!

-Oh!

-Oh!

MUSIC PLAYS

Lift it up slowly, Tunip. We don't want to startle him.

Huh?

Looks like he's heading for the Gardenpod. Let's go.

-I don't see the little guy anywhere, Captain.

-Keep looking.

-He's got to be around here somewhere.

-Huh?

SNORING

Under a plant. Just like home.

Oh, all that running must have tired him out. He's sound asleep.

We need to get him back to his home on Balls Pyramid.

Paso, Kwazii, to the GUPA.

Wake up, little fella. You're home.

You mean you climbed up there all by yourself, Peso?

I did have a little help from a huge wave.

Well, we'll be getting a little help from these. Climbing claws.

Hold on, little fella.

Shouldn't be much further now.

I think the shrub is just up... Oh!

I've got you, matey.

And I've got you.

Good catch, Captain.

-The shrub.

-Kind of scraggly-looking thing, isn't it?

-This is where the tree lobsters live, Peso?

-Yes, but...

Where are they?

HE SIGHS

-Peso.

-Old Howie!

You're back and you've bought little Howie Jr with you.

Oh, we were so worried.

-But, where we were you?

-Sleeping, of course.

We tree lobsters are nocturnal. We only come out at night.

YAWNING

Hello, mate.

Well, I'll be a sea monkey's uncle.

That's why no-one's ever seen before.

Peso, this is an incredible discovery.

You'll notice that our tribe has grown.

Number 25 and 26 hatched today and Howie Jr, here, makes 27.

Keep an eye on Howie Jr. He's a lively one.

Thanks for bringing him back to us.

Won't you all stay the night as our guests?

We'd be honoured, but we should head back home before it gets dark.

Goodbye, Old Howie. Goodbye, tree lobsters.

-ALL: Goodbye.

-Come back soon.

Erm, how do we get down from here, anyway?

I think you're going to like this part, Kwazii.

Wahoo!

Ha-ha!

Octonauts.
