Octonauts and the Tree Lobsters (S4, E8) — In this episode Peso gets washed up on a mysterious rocky island after a big storm at sea and discovers a group of insects long thought to be extinct called Tree Lobsters.
At the start of the episode Peso is caught out by a big storm and swept away from the safety of his ship (GUP-E).
When he finally surfaces for long enough Peso sees the jagged tooth of an island and potential safety.
He struggles up the steep cliffs of the island seeking shelter from the storm.
Having collapsed with exhaustion Peso shelters on a ledge beneath a low tree and sleeps. With the creep of dawn strange creatures emerge from the tree to observe the new visitor.
The next day having safely returned to Octopod HQ Peso tells of his encounter with the strange creatures on the island that saved him. Dashi believes that based on his last known location the island must have been Ball’s Pyramid.
The Octonauts are all puzzled by Peso’s tale of ‘tree lobsters’ as Ball’s Pyramid has been searched many times and nothing unusual had ever been found, certainly no tree lobsters, perhaps it had been the dream?
Unbeknownst to Peso a tree lobster had stowed away in his hat and was now on the loose in Octo HQ
When Shellington and Kwazii crash the Gup-D and the Gup-B after Kwazii tries to teach Shellington how to drive, they team up with a moray eel named Murray and a grouper fish named Trouper to pick up the pieces and repair the Gups.
At night, Kwazii, in the Gup B, exits the Octohatch and waits for Shellington to follow - but he’s having a little trouble in going straight.
Later after crashing their Gups, Kwazii and Shellington look on in horror as a cacophony of BINGs, BONGs, SPROINGs and CLINKs accompanies a myriad of parts popping off their ships.
Kwazii pokes and prods at the wedged spring and sets it free of the rock, but it jets out and arcs through the water towards the open maw of a GIANT CLAM. At the last second Shellington dives in and nabs it.
