Go Jetter Heroes: Amelia Earhart

**Go Jetter Heroes: Amelia Earhart** is the 10th episode of Season 3 and the 113th episode of Go Jetters.

## Synopsis

Inspired by her hero Amelia Earhart, Xuli attempts a solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean in a vintage plane. But when accidental stowaway Tala's plans to make the engine more eco-friendly put the plane in danger, they must rely on the Go Jetters to get them out of trouble.

## Plot

The episode begins in Newfoundland, in Canada. Xuli and Ubercorn stand in front of a large picture of famous pilot Amelia Earhart. Xuli announces that the reason they, as well as a large collection of cadets, are in Canada is to celebrate the life of Amelia Earhart, and her around-the-world expeditions. Ubercorn and Xuli share a collection of "high-flying" funky facts with the crowd, about the renowned pilot. While Ubercorn shares his facts, Xuli excitedly joins in, even claiming that Amelia inspired her to become a pilot. The cadets all cheer, as the facts commence. Xuli then makes a big announcement- to honor the life and achievements of Amelia Earhart, she would be doing her own flight, across the Atlantic Ocean the next day.

A hatch on JetPad lowers, to reveal a stunning red replica plane, with Grandmaster Glitch perched on top, waving to all of the cheering cadets. He excitedly announces he has fixed the plane, which annoys Lars, who helped to fix the plane too. Xuli is delighted, running straight for the plane, as Lars asks her if she wants to try the engine. Xuli sticks a photograph of Amelia Earhart on the windowsill, before testing the engine out, which creates a lot of smoke. Lars walks off, joining Glitch and Tala- the latter of which doesn't think the plane is very cool, thanks to just how dirty the engine is. Lars explains that the engine is just old, and that the smoke will not harm anyone. Glitch coughs loudly, before exclaiming again what a great job he did- annoying Lars yet again, causing Glitch to quickly mumble his name to please the Go Jetter. Lars and Glitch walk away from Tala, who exclaims that she is going to clean the engine, before Xuli's big flight. And, she knows just the people, or robots, to help her do it.

The scene transitions to night. The Go Jetters and cadets are asleep in their tents. All except for Tala, and a handful of Grimbots, who are hiding behind the picture of Amelia Earhart. Tala jumps from behind it, but is quickly scared by the loud and excited grimbots. She tells them to be quiet, as this is a secret mission. She then asks if they got the clean air converter for her, which they excitedly show to her. Tala takes it from them, and makes a run for the plane, where she switches out the old engine for the converter, even asking the small photograph of Amelia if she minds. The grimbots help Tala, using spanners pulled from another Grimbot's head to hack at the old engine. Tala begins to get sleepy, and lies down in the back of the plane, accidentally falling asleep, and snoring loudly.

The sun is rising on Newfoundland, as Xuli gets ready for her flight- now dressed in a brown aviator costume- clearly Earhart-Inspired. Ubercorn excitedly asks Xuli if she is ready to go, and she gives him a thumbs up, before closing the plane's door. Xuli is met with cheers from her fellow Go Jetters, Ubercorn and Glitch, as she starts the plane and sets off. On the plane, Tala is quickly awoken, and startled, as the plane is off the ground, with her as a stowaway! Back in Newfoundland, Ubercorn is tracking Xuli's process, when suddenly, Xuli starts to experience some turbulence. Xuli begins to worry, talking to her photograph about how the plane's controls just don't feel right. Xuli hears a noise- a voice saying "Ouch!". Xuli thinks it might have been her photograph, only for Tala to reveal herself.

Xuli is upset quickly, as this was supposed to be a solo flight! Tala quickly tries to defend herself, claiming that she was only trying to help by replacing the engine. The hatch where the converter sits on the plane falls open, and the controls become more uncontrollable. Xuli begins to cry in anger and agony, while Ubercorn tries to talk to her through their communicators on JetPad. The plane is going off-course, and Xuli is struggling to steer the plane. Tala reveals herself to Ubercorn, which makes Glitch and Foz jump in shock, and telling her that they're coming to get her. Soon after, a radio signal is lost between the plane and JetPad, causing Xuli to yell at Tala. Back on JetPad, Kyan and Lars talk to eachother, stating what needs to be done, before an angry Glitch interrupts them, and tells them to get along with it, and get in the Vroomster already.

Kyan, Lars, Foz and Grandmaster Glitch all pile into the vroomster, with Kyan at the wheel. They launch off, in hot pursuit of Xuli's plane. Xuli and Tala are in a panic, with Xuli having no clue which direction they should be flying in, thanks to how far off-course they have gone. Tala tries to apologize, but Xuli determinedly exclaims that Amelia Earhart would not give up, meaning that they won't either. Together, Xuli and Tala steer the plane higher into the air. Meanwhile, the remaining Go Jetters and Glitch search for the duo, with Glitch in a state of panic. Kyan asks Ubercorn if he can locate the plane yet- which he is having no luck doing whatsoever. Tala and Xuli, meanwhile, finally get the plane into an optimal position to continue the flight. Tala points out a flock of birds, Puffins which migrate across the Atlantic Ocean, which is the same route which Amelia took!! This delights Xuli, as she steers the plane to follow the Puffins.

The remaining Go Jetters and Glitch are still searching, with Lars and Foz using binoculars. Lars points out the same puffins, which quickly leads them to finding the plane with Tala and Xuli on board. He notices the Clean air converter, and notes how it's not right. The converter begins to cause trouble again, the plane's steering becoming wonky again. Kyan panics, calling Ubercorn to send them Click-Ons to help them out.
