The Adventure of the Misunderstood Snake [S3:E12]
<p>Are snakes really mean? The four friends venture to Central Oregon and explore the Newberry Crater National Monument -- the Lava Cast Forest in particular. They bring Robi-the-Robot to assist them, and ‘he’ ends up greatly helping them. A startled snake (‘Rattle’) reacts to Loar and Bobo Chico, warning and then scaring them with its presence. In his haste to escape, Loar falls and badly hurts his ankle. Robi helps to ‘protect’ them from the misunderstood ‘Rattle’ and then helps his human friends recover. Bobo Chico provides tender, loving care to his young friend as Bear King gently puts Roen to bed.</p><p>Thank you for listening!
