0:00:34 > 0:00:37Sometimes, in a place as big as the Outback,

0:00:37 > 0:00:40the smallest thing can cause an upset...

0:00:40 > 0:00:43as poor Alice was about to find out!

0:00:43 > 0:00:47Oh! Oww!

0:00:47 > 0:00:48Ohhh!

0:00:51 > 0:00:54Hey, Alice, are you OK?

0:00:54 > 0:00:58I...I think so, Sammy.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Here, let me help.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02That was quite a fall!

0:01:03 > 0:01:09Back at the Homestead, Frank and Buster were giving everything a bit of a spring clean.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12With Ned's help, of course.

0:01:14 > 0:01:15It's Sammy.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Oops!

0:01:18 > 0:01:20Aah!

0:01:20 > 0:01:22What happened, Sammy?

0:01:22 > 0:01:26- Alice hit a rock in the road and fell off her scooter.- Ow, nasty!

0:01:26 > 0:01:29- Let me help you, Alice! - Thanks, Buster.

0:01:29 > 0:01:35- You did the best thing bringing her here, Sammy. We'll look after her, won't we Buster?- Of course!

0:01:35 > 0:01:36We're here to help!

0:01:36 > 0:01:38Thanks, Sammy.

0:01:38 > 0:01:42Any time, Alice. Good job I was passing.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44This is Mitzi's little lot!

0:01:45 > 0:01:52Alice was still a little shaken, but with Frank and Buster's help, she was feeling a bit better.

0:01:52 > 0:01:57- You'll forget about it when you're back on your scooter.- Buster's right. You'll soon be back in the saddle!

0:01:57 > 0:02:01- Hi, Ned!- Hello.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04- Coo-eee!- Hi, Mitzi.

0:02:04 > 0:02:09Sammy just told me about your accident, Alice. Are you all right?

0:02:09 > 0:02:12Yes. I feel a bit better now.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15Ah, good. That's the trouble with only having two wheels.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18When you hit a rock, you fall off!

0:02:18 > 0:02:19Mitzi!

0:02:19 > 0:02:22Yes. Yes, you're right.

0:02:22 > 0:02:26Don't worry, Alice. You were just unlucky.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30- Are you OK, Ned?- Oh!

0:02:30 > 0:02:33I think he needs a hand, Frank.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Later, in the Outback,

0:02:35 > 0:02:39Alice realised the only way not to fall off her scooter

0:02:39 > 0:02:41was not to get on it again.

0:02:41 > 0:02:45Well, there's no harm done. Your scooter's fine!

0:02:45 > 0:02:46Er...

0:02:46 > 0:02:52- Aren't you going to get on it, then? - No, I...I think I'll walk.

0:02:52 > 0:02:58Alice, if you fall off a bike, the best thing to do is get straight back on it.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02It's all right, Frank. I like walking.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05Thanks for the tea and everything.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08What about your scooter? Alice!

0:03:08 > 0:03:11Bye, Frank!

0:03:11 > 0:03:13Ahh!

0:03:18 > 0:03:23Alice found that, without her scooter, it was much harder to do things.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27And because she wasn't used to walking everywhere,

0:03:27 > 0:03:29her feet were really aching.

0:03:29 > 0:03:30Ahh!

0:03:33 > 0:03:37There you go, Mitzi. That should cool you down.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40Aw! Look at that!

0:03:40 > 0:03:46Well, that's it for today. See you next time!

0:03:46 > 0:03:48You bet!

0:03:48 > 0:03:50Bye, Lolly.

0:03:50 > 0:03:54- Wait!- Without her scooter, Alice arrived too late for her ice cream.

0:03:54 > 0:04:00You just missed her. Have a lick of mine. It's triple choc!

0:04:00 > 0:04:03Oh! No, thanks, Mitzi.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06I really wanted a strawberry ice cream.

0:04:06 > 0:04:10Oh. Better luck next time, Alice. See you!

0:04:12 > 0:04:14Bye, Mitzi.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Oh!

0:04:17 > 0:04:19Meanwhile, back at the homestead,

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Buster and Frank were still worried about Alice

0:04:22 > 0:04:25as they tried to fix the post-box.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27Hmm.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Pay attention, Buster!

0:04:29 > 0:04:32Oh! Sorry, Frank.

0:04:32 > 0:04:36HE SIGHS I can't stop thinking about Alice.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40- Yeah, she hasn't come back for her scooter.- I hope she's all right.

0:04:40 > 0:04:44Perhaps we should go and see if she needs help.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46Good idea, Frank!

0:04:50 > 0:04:52- Stand By.- Standing By.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56Chocks away, Buster!

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Chocks away, Frank!

0:05:00 > 0:05:04- Get the gate, Ned! - I'm getting the gate!

0:05:06 > 0:05:10- Buckle up, Buster!- Buckled up!

0:05:30 > 0:05:34Frank and Buster didn't have to go far before they found Alice.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37It looked like she needed help.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39- There she is!- Yeah!

0:05:39 > 0:05:42Hi, Alice. What's up with your feet?

0:05:42 > 0:05:45Oh! They're just a bit achy, that's all.

0:05:45 > 0:05:49Hmm. Walking can be hard work in the Outback.

0:05:49 > 0:05:53You wouldn't have to walk everywhere if you had your scooter.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57- I know.- Then why don't you ride it again, Alice?

0:05:57 > 0:06:02I really want to, honestly I do. It's just...

0:06:02 > 0:06:03Just what?

0:06:03 > 0:06:06I might fall off it again.

0:06:06 > 0:06:11Mitzi was right. Two wheels are just too wobbly.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14You just need to get your confidence back, Alice.

0:06:14 > 0:06:16Hello, all. What's happening here?

0:06:16 > 0:06:21Hi, George. Alice is worried about getting back on her scooter.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Since she fell off it.

0:06:23 > 0:06:27Hmm. I like to keep my feet firmly on the ground.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30You know where you are with a good pair of feet.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33Look! Beauties, aren't they?

0:06:33 > 0:06:35It's all about balance!

0:06:35 > 0:06:41- Hmm, balance. I've got an idea that just might help!- You have?

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Meet me back at the homestead!

0:06:50 > 0:06:53- Well...what do you think?- Um...

0:06:53 > 0:06:56Er...what are they?

0:06:56 > 0:06:57Training wheels.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00George was right. It's all about balance.

0:07:00 > 0:07:04And four wheels are better to balance with than two!

0:07:04 > 0:07:06Why don't you have a go, Alice?

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Oh...I...I'm...

0:07:09 > 0:07:10I'm not sure.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13Go on, Alice. Have a go!

0:07:13 > 0:07:15So, with the Koala Brothers' help,

0:07:15 > 0:07:19Alice sat on her scooter for the first time since her accident.

0:07:19 > 0:07:23- Not a wobble!- See, Alice? I knew you could do it!

0:07:27 > 0:07:31- LAUGHING - Look at me, Ned!

0:07:31 > 0:07:32Well done, Alice!

0:07:32 > 0:07:36Great! Now lets see if you can ride it.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40- Alice was all set to ride her scooter again.- Ready, Alice?

0:07:40 > 0:07:43Even though she felt safer with her training wheels,

0:07:43 > 0:07:45she was still nervous.

0:07:45 > 0:07:49- Get the gate, Ned! - I'm getting the gate, Frank!

0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Hurrah!- Yeah!

0:08:10 > 0:08:12She will be OK, won't she, Frank?

0:08:12 > 0:08:15Sure. You never forget how to ride a bike, Buster!

0:08:15 > 0:08:20Frank was right. Alice was whizzing along in no time.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22The more confident she got,

0:08:22 > 0:08:25the less she was worried about falling off.

0:08:25 > 0:08:31- She's been going round in circles for ages!- Practice makes perfect.

0:08:32 > 0:08:37Oh! Look at you! You're riding your scooter again, Alice.

0:08:37 > 0:08:41I know. I feel really safe. I've got training wheels!

0:08:43 > 0:08:44Where?

0:08:44 > 0:08:46THEY GASP

0:08:46 > 0:08:48Where are they?

0:08:48 > 0:08:52Here they are. They fell off.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55Fell off? Why didn't you tell me, Ned?

0:08:55 > 0:08:58You didn't look like you needed them. Sorry, Alice.

0:08:58 > 0:09:03That means you must have been riding all this time on two wheels, Alice!

0:09:03 > 0:09:06Yes. And did you fall off?

0:09:06 > 0:09:08ALL: No!

0:09:08 > 0:09:11You're right. It's easy. Thanks, guys.

0:09:11 > 0:09:15- No problem, Alice. - We're here to help!

0:09:15 > 0:09:17ALL: Bye, Alice!

0:09:17 > 0:09:22So, thanks to the Koala brothers, Alice was back on her scooter.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24Bye!

0:09:24 > 0:09:28She realised that when you lose your confidence,

0:09:28 > 0:09:32you just need a bit of help to get you going again.
