Hi. I'm going to Tree Fu Rangers club today,

and that means a big adventure,

so we need to do the moves that turn our magic powers on.

Come on, join in! Time for Tree Fu!

# We need to turn the magic on

# We need to save the day, come on

# Just follow me and you will see

# The magic comes from you and me

# To make Tree Fu spells do what you see

# Slide to the side

# And jump right back

# Hold your hands up high

# Spin around, reach up for the sky

# Touch your nose

# Now make a pose

# Clap your hands

# Touch your knees and run with me

# When you move you make the magic

# Do what I do, to make the magic

# Turn that, turn that, turn that, turn that Tree Fu magic on! #

Look! The sapstone in my belt is glowing!

Moving turned our magic on! Thanks for your help.

Right, now I'm ready to be a Tree Fu Ranger!

Hi, Twigs! Chezz, Petal. What are we doing today?

Tom! It's so exciting.

-We're...

-We're doing the Fungus Finder badge, Tom, remember?

Rickety asked us to learn all the fungus names.

Oh, no! I completely forgot.

Oh, yeah. Me too. We're doomed!

And that's why you don't have as many badges as me.

That, and you aren't nearly as brilliant.

Ahem. Now then, is everyone ready to earn their Fungus Finder badge?

-Yes, let's go, go, go!

-Yes!

-Huh?

-Oof!

-No, no, no!

A Tree Fu Ranger never rushes in unprepared.

What's our motto?

Ooh! I know this one! Is it...

Is it... "Never swim on a full...stomach"?

-It's, uh...

-Ahem.

I think you'll find it's "A Tree Fu Ranger is ready for anything!"

Very good, Chezz.

Now, who's learnt the names of the most important fungi in the forest?

-Ah....

-Me!

-Hmph!

-I know them forwards, backwards and upside down.

Hmm?

Er, I was going to, but then a beetle stole my fungus book

and I searched all night for him

but it turns out he'd ripped it up to make a nest, and so..

-We forgot.

-Yes, we forgot. Sorry, Rickety.

Oh, dear, that is not good.

A Tree Fu Ranger must know which fungi are useful

and which to stay away from.

-Yes, Rickety.

-Sorry, Rickety.

Now, to get your Fungus Finder badge,

you must spot four important fungi.

Ooh, like me. I'm an important, fun guy!

The Common Red, Striped Blue,

Speckled Green

and Bumpy Yellow Fungi.

To earn your badge, you must spot them all.

Tom, Twigs, as you forgot to do your homework,

-you can pull the wagon.

-What's all this?

Just a few things that we might need in the Fungus Forest -

all part of being ready for anything.

OK, Rickety.

THEY GROAN

Ah!

-Eh?

-Wondering what the Chuckleberry seeds are for, eh, Petal? Well...

They're for leaving a trail in case of an emergency

so that we can find our way home again.

"A Tree Fu Ranger is ready for anything!"

Yes, thank you, Chezz, that's right.

Oh.

Ooh!

Ugh, Twigs, can you give me a hand? This thing's heavy!

But these are Chuckleberry seeds. They're delicious!

Mmm. They are.

Ooh. There's some more.

Tree Fu Rangers, halt!

Everyone gather around, I've found something rather special.

Does anyone know what this is?

Ooh! Ooh! I know!

It's a Sprite Trap Fungus!

That's right, Chezz.

-You couldn't catch a Sprite in that!

-It doesn't look like

it could trap my little finger.

-Careful, Tom. You don't want it to go snap!

-Argh!

-It's got me! It's got me!

-Waaah!

Shh, quiet!

If you'd both done your homework

you would know that the Sprite Trap is set off by loud noises.

-Ha-ha!

-Hee-hee!

Tom's finger's doomed! How do we get the trap off?

Right, who can tell me?

We need a Stinky Fungus to send it to sleep.

Everyone knows that.

Thank you, Chezz, and Petal.

Well, like good Tree Fu Rangers, we are ready for anything

and have a Stinky Fungus here.

Now, don't breathe it in.

You're lucky. This one is only a baby Sprite Trap.

In the deepest darkest part of the forest,

in the shadow of a tower fungus, where the lemon moss grows,

there's a Giant Sprite Trap!

Thank you, Chezz.

Don't worry, Petal.

We won't be going anywhere near there

and won't see any nasty fungi like that.

Rangers, onwards!

Ergh! Why do we need so much stuff?

It does seem a lot.

Emergency vine,

emergency tent?

Emergency sap flowers?

Another stinky fungus. We don't need all this.

Rickety said we wouldn't go near anything dangerous, didn't he?

Yeah, I suppose. What's this?

A marshmallow fruit! Oh, yummy! It doesn't weigh that much,

and we could eat it later if we run out of seeds. That can stay.

Oh, that's better. Much lighter.

We could always come back to that stuff if we need it later.

Yeah. Ooh! More Chuckleberry seeds!

Look at that, Stink. Silly Tree Fu Rangers out for a walk.

Yeah. Did they leave anything tasty?

Eww, no! Perfumey sap flowers. Yuck!

Look! they've got a marshmallow fruit! My favourite.

Yeah, that's my dinner sorted.

-No, my dinner!

-Oh!

Listen up, Tree Fu Rangers.

This is the perfect place to spot the important fungi for your badge.

Yes! Now's our chance.

But we can't get near that marshmallow fruit

with all them around.

We can soon fix that. Look what I found!

Now, what you need to do is...

Oh!

HE SNORES

OK, then.

How was that?

-Huh? Rickety?

-He's asleep.

Oh! Now we'll never get that marshmallow fruit, fungle bungle!

What happened?

Ah! He's sniffed that yellow cloud from a Stinky Fungus

and he's fallen asleep.

The only thing that will wake him up is the smell of sap flowers.

There should be some on the wagon.

Oh, yeah, about the sap flowers...

We put them in a safe place on the way here.

What?!

Right, then let's follow the seed trail back the way we came

and find them.

This way...

The seeds were a trail?

They're taking my marshmallow fruit!

After them! And it's my marshmallow fruit.

Huh? Where did the trail go?

Yeah... About the trail...

-We ate it.

-What?!

So we can't find the sap flowers, we can't wake Rickety,

and now we're lost!

We're doomed.

I have my Gold Pathfinder badge

and, unlike you, I know what I'm doing. This way!

I don't remember this bit, Chezz. I think we're lost.

No, we're not.

Let's fly up and see if we can spot a path back.

No! You never fly in the Fungus Forest

or you might hit a...

Oof!

..a Whirlpool Fungus!

Chezz, that would never happen.

Huh?

Oh, no!

Whoa!

Tom! Help!

Oi! That's mine!

No, it's mine!

Oh, no! The Whirlpool Fungus is going to suck us all up

if we don't do something!

We've got to use Big World Magic to squeeze it closed!

It's time to do the Super Squeeze Spell. Are you ready?

Tree Fu, go!

Copy me. Into your spell pose.

OK, start by putting both of your arms up into the air.

Spread your fingers.

Squeeze one hand,

squeeze your other hand

and squeeze your hands together.

Arms out to the side.

Fingers spread.

Squeeze one hand,

squeeze the other hand,

squeeze your hands together.

Well done. Same moves again.

Arms up, fingers spread,

squeeze one, squeeze two,

now squeeze together.

To the side.

Squeeze one, squeeze two,

squeeze together.

Now clap.

Say, "Super Squeeze" to send the magic to me.

Super Squeeze!

Yes, we did it! Thanks for your help!

-PUFFY:

-Yes! The marshmallow fruit's safe.

Come on, this is our chance.

Wowzers! Amazing!

Thanks, Tom. But there isn't a badge for that, you know. Eh?

-Puffy!?

-Rickety!

Stink? After them!

Eh?

Whoa!

Oh, Tom, this looks like the deepest, darkest part of the forest

and look, lemon moss! This is where the Giant Sprite Trap grows!

You're right. I don't like the look of this.

Everyone, stop!

Out of our way. We're not listening to you any more.

You've spent all day getting us into trouble.

You're not fit to be Tree Fu Rangers. Come on.

-Let's save Rickety!

-But....

We're better Rangers than you!

Come on, Tom, let's show him.

No, Twigs, he's right.

We've got to start acting like Tree Fu Rangers.

We're in a dangerous place. We mustn't just rush in like before.

We've got to prepare so we are ready for anything.

Now think, what did we throw off the wagon?

Right, there was a trumpet,

a trillicake, some seeds, a cuddly toy?

Oh, Twigs! There was a vine. And some sap flowers.

Oh, yeah, and Stinky Fungus!

Well remembered!

Come on, we've got a lot to collect and not much time. Let's go!

Hmm. There's no sign of the wagon.

But look at the fungi!

They're all on our list for the badge!

We did it! Yay!

Petal! We'll never get our badge now! Help!

Ha-ha! You got caught! Ha-ha-ha!

Stink! No!

This is your fault, fungle bungle.

My fault?

-Well, you did shout, and as everyone knows...

-Oh, no!

We're going to be trapped for ever with Super Ranger and Squeaky!

ALL: Help! Help!

I've got the vine and some sap flowers.

And I've got the Stinky Fungus.

Looks like we're ready for anything!

VOICES: Help!

And just in time.

Shhh! It's a Giant Sprite Trap!

MUFFLED: They're dooomed!

It's all right, Twigs. I think we have what we need to save them.

-Phew.

-Rickety used the Stinky Fungus

to send the little Sprite Trap to sleep.

But that's a Giant Sprite Trap. We'd need a giant Stinky Fungus

to put it to sleep. What are we going to do?

Leave that to me, Twigs. Make some room.

We need to make the Stinky Fungus big enough to send

-the Giant Sprite Trap to sleep for the others to escape!

-Help!

-We'll have to use Big World Magic, so I need your help.

-Help!

It's time to do the Grow Grow Grow Spell! Are you ready?

-Help!

-Tree Fu, go!

Right, copy me.

Into your spell pose.

Now squat down low like a frog.

Grow one arm up.

Grow the other arm up.

Now wiggle your fingers

and grow them up the middle like you're a plant,

growing up as tall as you can.

Up onto your tiptoes.

Oh, well done.

Same moves again.

Low like a frog.

One arm up, other arm up.

Wiggle your fingers.

Grow up as tall as you can.

Now clap, say, "Grow Grow Grow" to send the magic to me.

Grow! Grow! Grow!

Yes! We did it!

Thanks for your help!

Come on, Twigs, let's give it a squeeze!

Yay!

-Yay!

-That was actually pretty...

Eugh!

Wow! That smells disgusting!

Yeah! I love it!

Ha! Not much of a rescue, Tom!

Yeah. How are we going to get down from here?

They're right, Tom. They're too heavy to carry.

It's a good job we're ready for anything.

Puffy, grab hold of this!

-Got it.

-Ooh, clever!

-Quick!

-Keep holding on, Puffy.

Ooh! The marshmallow fruit!

Puffy?!

Waaaaagh!

-Yuck.

-Fungle bungle.

Right, let's wake everyone up.

And it's with great pleasure

that I award the coveted Tree Fu Rangers Fungus Finder badge

-to Petal...

-Hee-hee-hee!

..and to Chezz.

Thank you, Rickety.

-Oh, well, maybe we'll get our Fungus Finder badges next time.

-Yeah.

Ahem. And I have one more presentation to make.

For showing real courage

and being ready for anything when it mattered the most,

I award Tom and Twigs with the Exceptional Bravery badge.

Wow, thanks, Rickety!

Wowzers!

Hmm. I suppose you are proper Tree Fu Rangers...

but I've still got more badges than anyone else!

Hee-hee! Not quite!

Oh!

Ha-ha! Classic!

Pfft!

It's time for me to go.

Bye, everyone.

-See you soon, Tom.

-Cheerio.

-Bye, bestest Ranger Buddy!

Hey, Petal, show us all of those badges again.

Thanks for helping me in Treetopolis!

See you soon for another adventure! Bye for now!
