The Case of the Little Red Berries

**The Case of the Little Red Berries** is the eighteenth episode of Season 2 of Fishtronaut and the seventieth episode of the series.

## Summary

The episode opens with Marina who is cooking food for the raccoons, in which Zeek eats a banana before he could respond to her. After eating the banana, Marina tells him that the banana that he ate is one of the ingredients that is required to feed the sick animals in the park that need special attention. Zeek tells Marina to make a dish for every animal, but Marina says that every animal has its own diet, because different foods provide vitamins and powers to different animals. Zeek confuses the food powers for superhero powers, in which Marina tells Zeek about different foods giving some effects to some animals (one example is some nutrients such as seeds and little coconuts give strength for the parrots so parrots can fly really far). Zeek then decides to go find foods that would give him strength, but Marina tells him that she and Zeek haven't finished preparing food for a zebra. Meanwhile, Zeek eats a carrot that was supposed to make him jump high over a rock, but this doesn't happen. Back to Marina and Fishtronaut, Marina gives the sick zebra a bowl of fruit, in which the food that Marina made is for the zebra. All of a sudden, a P.O.P. arrives towards Fishtronaut and Marina. Marina is disappointed that Zeek isn't there to dance with them while Fishtronaut and Marina tell the viewers to dance to open the P.O.P..

**P.O.P. Clues:** an hourglass and a Christmas wreath

Receiving the clues, Fishtronaut is curious that one of the clues has something to do with animals connected to Christmas, such as reindeer. Meanwhile, Zeek tells a ladybug to open her wings while Zeek goes far away to count many spots on her wings. After eating a half of a coconut, Zeek then guesses incorrectly by thinking the ladybug has fourteen spots on her wings. The ladybug says that she has *eight* spots on her wings and Zeek didn't get the answer right. Meanwhile, Fishtronaut and Marina encounter a reindeer who doesn't know much about Christmas decorations and the reindeer can help the two if it were about Santa Claus. Before Marina can continue talking, Fishtronaut tells her that she doesn't have enough time to finish talking to the reindeer. Marina and Fishtronaut have not found a single clue without Zeek and Fishtronaut is curious where Zeek is. Meanwhile, Zeek eats some avocados that would make him stronger to lift a whole tree, but this doesn't happen. Meanwhile, Marina and Fishtronaut still didn't find Zeek in the park and Marina is curious that the mission has something to do with finding Zeek. As Fishtronaut looks at the hourglass clue, he is curious that he doesn't have much time left to find Zeek. Fishtronaut and Marina decide to go to the forest to learn more about the wreath clue.

Meanwhile at Adventure Forest, Zeek then disturbs a bananaquit, a sloth, and an opossum while trying to find foods that would give him superpowers. Zeek then lands on a meadow of holly berries in which Zeek says to himself that he wanted a superpower. Meanwhile, Fishtronaut and Marina encounter a blackbird who loves Christmas with holly berry decorations. The blackbird then explains that the holly berries on the wreath clue are plastic in which Marina remembers when she was talking to Zeek who was curious if different foods would give him superpowers in which the blackbird tries to make sure he doesn't eat holly berries. Fishtronaut and Marina decide to hurry and find Zeek before he eats a single holly berry. After Zeek sees a bird eating a holly berry, Zeek is curious if the berries would give him superpowers. Meanwhile, Fishtronaut is surprised that there many holly berries in the park (Marina tells him that the red dots on one of his gadgets are holly bushes). Fishtronaut is worried that time is running out and Marina tells him that there are a few holly bushes by Adventure Forest, in which Zeek likes to play with the trees in Adventure Forest.

Meanwhile, Marina encounters the same ladybug that Zeek talked to and the ladybug saws that she saw Zeek passing through one of the bushes. Suddenly, Fishtronaut encounters Zeek who is about to eat inedible holly berries, in which Fishtronaut was able to save him from eating the holly berries before time runs out. Having saved Zeek from the inedible holly berries, Zeek then explains that the holly berries would give him the ability to fly in which he explains that the berries are edible to the bird he saw earlier in which Zeek was supposed to avoid eating them; Fishtronaut then explains that the holly berries are not edible for him. Zeek then explains that he wanted a superpower, in which Marina explains that he doesn't need one and what's important is that Zeek is safe and the mission is completed when Fishtronaut saved Zeek from eating the holly berries. Meanwhile at Cicada Beach while performing a super jump during a game of hopscotch, another P.O.P. arrives towards the trio.

**P.O.P. Rewards:** three banana milkshakes

Receiving the rewards, Zeek drinks one of the banana milkshakes in which he tells Marina that bananas give him powers in which he does another super jump again after drinking one of the banana milkshakes in which Fishtronaut and Marina are impressed with his super jump.
