**The Case of Zeek's Disappearance** is the sixteenth episode of Season 1 of Fishtronaut and the sixteenth episode of the series.

## Summary

The episode opens with Fishtronaut together with Marina and Zeek making chocolate candies for a party. Zeek tries to eat one of them, but Marina says that he can't, nor can Fishtronaut; Fishtronaut also tells him that he and Zeek can't eat candies. Before waiting for the party guests to arrive, Marina arrives to bring Dr. Green to the party. Fishtronaut tells Zeek that they can't abandon the party table and says that they need someone to guard the chocolate candies for the guests. Zeek asks Marina if he wants to be the keeper, but Marina agrees that he can be the keeper of the chocolate candies. While on an attempt to guard the chocolate candies, Zeek is distracted by bananas and decides to get more for the party. Before he could continue guarding, an incident occurs on the party table.

The chocolate candies have disappeared and Zeek finds a paper with an image of a pawprint on it. Marina, along with Fishtronaut and her grandfather, arrive at the table, only to find it ruined and Zeek isn't here guarding the party. Marina is worried that the candies have disappeared. Fishtronaut and Marina are unsure which culprit was the one who ate all the candies. All of a sudden, a P.O.P. arrives towards the agents.

**P.O.P. Clues:** a thermometer and a banana

Receiving the clues, Marina and Fishtronaut think a thermometer is used for hot temperature and sickness and a banana has something to do with Zeek. Marina decides to go toe Monkey Island and Banana Grove to find Zeek while Fishtronaut goes to the Orchard. Meanwhile, Zeek is following a trail of pawprints to look for the culprit who ate the chocolate candies. Meanwhile, Fishtronaut and Marina ask the monkeys and a rabbit to know if they have seen Zeek, but the monkeys and the rabbit say they didn't see a sign. Zeek also asks a bunch of ants if they ate the candies, but one of the ants say they didn't eat the candies and some other animal must have eaten them. Zeek continues to follow the trail of pawprints while Fishtronaut and Marina didn't find a sign of Zeek during the search. The two decide to go to Sloth Forest to ask the sloths if they have seen Zeek.

Zeek follows the trail of pawprints to a cave, only to find a bear cub who was the culprit who consumed all the chocolate candies for the party. Angry with the bear cub who ate all the candies, Zeek found out the cub has a stomachache for eating all the chocolate candies. Fishtronaut and Marina follow the path to the cave, knowing that Zeek and the bear cub are inside the cave. Zeek tells his story to Fishtronaut and Marina that he knew there wasn't enough bananas for him and he decided to get more bananas for the party and a bear cub ate all the chocolate candies before he could continue guarding and Zeek didn't guard the chocolate candies very well. The agents decide to go to the Beanstalk to bring the bear cub to be examined by Dr. Green. Dr. Green found out that the bear cub has very high fever for eating too much chocolate candies. He also explains to him that bears should eat fruits, seeds, nuts, and eggs and if they should eat anything sweet, bears should eat honey instead of chocolate.
After healing the cub, the gang decides to have a party, despite no candies and the cub is very happy after being healed.

**P.O.P. Rewards:** fruit candies

Receiving the rewards, the gang decides to share the fruit candies to everyone, including the bear cub.
