[Laughing]

MARTIN: Yes.

DOODLE: Me, me, me again. What am I?

DOODLE: Yes.

MARTIN: Woo-hoo!

[Laughing]

ODO: My turn!

DESCRIPTION: On all fours, Odo hops onto a tree stump.

ODO: Ribbit, ribbit.

DOODLE: Frog!

ODO: That's right!

DESCRIPTION: Martin frowns and shrugs his shoulders.

ODO: Oooh, Martin? Are you okay?

MARTIN: It's just, frogs. They make me think about my home. I-- I miss it sometimes.

DOODLE: Do you want to tell us about it?

ODO: Maybe talking about it will make you feel better.

MARTIN: I don't know.

DOODLE: Please? I'll bet your home has all sorts of neat stuff.

ODO: Yeah! Like, lions.

DOODLE: And ice cream bananas.

[Gasps]

ODO: And hidden treasure.

DOODLE: Oooohh!

MARTIN: It was just a forest.

ODO & DOODLE: Oh.

MARTIN: Oh, umm....

[Stammers]

MARTIN: Uh, yeah. But it did have...

ODO & DOODLE: Hmm?

MARTIN: Purple grass?

ODO & DOODLE: Wow! I knew it.

MARTIN: And, um, talking bushes.

[Gasps]

MARTIN: And the chickens, they walked on ropes hanging up in the air.

DESCRIPTION: Martin mimes walking on a tightrope. Near the group, Camp Leader is reading a book and listening to Martin.

CAMP LEADER: Huh?

MARTIN: And instead of humming, the hummingbirds would go, pbbbbt. We called them pbbt-birds. And, umm, the flamingos flew backwards.

[Laughs]

ODO: Like this?

DESCRIPTION: Odo mimes flying backwards and falls into a bush!

ODO: Whoa! Ha, ha.

DOODLE: Your home sounds amazing.

DESCRIPTION: From the bush, Odo sticks his head out and gestures to Doodle.

ODO: Doodle, psst.

DESCRIPTION: Camp Leader approaches Martin. Doodle runs over to Odo in the bush.

CAMP LEADER: I've never heard of pbbt-birds before.

DESCRIPTION: Martin frowns.

MARTIN: Yeah, I made them up.

CAMP LEADER: Well, you certainly have an active imagination. But...

MARTIN: I know. I should tell Odo and Doodle the truth.

CAMP LEADER: Mm-hm.

DESCRIPTION: Behind the bush, Odo and Doodle whisper to each other.

ODO: Let's turn Forest Camp into Martin's home. Then, he won't miss it so much.

DOODLE: Yes, but how?

ODO: We'll figure it out! I know we can!

[Chuckles]

DESCRIPTION: Odo and Doodle run off. Martin looks around, but they are gone.

MARTIN: Odo? Doodle?

DESCRIPTION: Later, Odo pours purple liquid onto the grass.

ODO: Purple grass, check.

DOODLE: The berry juice will come off, right?

DESCRIPTION: Odo slides his wing through the purple berry juice, which comes off the grass and sticks to Odo’s feathers.

ODO: Yes! What's next?

DOODLE: Martin said his forest had a talking bush. But I don't think our bushes can do that.

ODO: Maybe we can find someone who already talks and make them look like a bush.

DESCRIPTION: Later, Odo and Doodle are sticking leaves to Leonardo’s plumage.

ODO: Uh-huh.

LEONARDO: You say, this is for Martin?

ODO: Yes. It's so he doesn't miss his forest so much.

DOODLE: Can you talk like a bush, Leonardo?

LEONARDO: What kind of question is that? Of course, I can talk like a bush!

DESCRIPTION: Leonardo turns around and ducks his head behind the leaves.

LEONARDO [IN DEEP VOICE]: I am the bush you cannot shush. Behold, my beautiful leaves!

[Doodle gasps]

DOODLE: That's exactly what a bush would say.

ODO: Now, we just need to ask the chickens to walk on the rope.

DESCRIPTION: Later in the day, the three chickens look skyward with their eyes wide open. Doodle is tying a rope between two trees. Thick bushes line the ground beneath the rope.

[Chickens squawking]

ODO: But it's for Martin!

DOODLE: And it's easy. Look.

[Chickens clucking anxiously]

DESCRIPTION: Doodle walks across the tightrope with ease.

DOODLE: Ta-da!

DESCRIPTION: The first chicken in the group approaches Odo and whispers in his ear.

THE FIRST CHICKEN: We wanna help Martin, but.... You probably never noticed this, but we chickens tend to bump into each other. If we tried to cross that rope. we'd probably do more falling than walking.

ODO: I have an idea.

DESCRIPTION: Later, Odo and Doodle push a purple trampoline under the tightrope, hidden in the bushes. Odo jumps up onto the rope.

[Grunts]

ODO: Ready?

DESCRIPTION: The three chickens walk onto the rope. They bump into each other and fall off. Instead of hitting the ground, they bounce off the trampoline and back onto the rope.

CHICKENS: Uhh...?

[Clucking]

DESCRIPTION: A group of birds surrounds the chickens, watching.

ODO & DOODLE: Yes!

JOHN JOHN: Martin's coming, Martin's coming.

DESCRIPTION: Odo speaks to two flamingos, John John, and Leonardo.

ODO: Okay, everyone! Just remember what you're supposed to do!

[All squeak]

DESCRIPTION: Just then, Martin walks through the purple grass. He is holding a book.

MARTIN: Huh?

DESCRIPTION: Odo and Doodle approach Martin. Martin reaches for his book.

MARTIN: There you are. I have something to show you.

DOODLE: We have something to show you, too.

BOTH: Surprise!

DESCRIPTION: Martin looks up at the chickens on the tightrope, Leonardo dressed as a bush, flamingos flying backwards, and hummingbirds flying around.

[Birds squawking]

[Clucking]

DESCRIPTION: Leonardo turns around to display his leaves.

LEONARDO: I am a bush!

[Squaking]

MARTIN: Uhhh…

DESCRIPTION: Two hummingbirds fly next to Martin.

HUMMINGBIRDS: Pbbt!

MARTIN: What is this?

ODO: It's your home.

DOODLE: We turned Forest Camp into your forest. So you wouldn't miss it as much.

MARTIN: But, umm… I wanted to tell you. My home didn't have any of these things.

ALL: What?

DESCRIPTION: All of the birds fly into each other.

[Clamouring]

DOODLE: But Martin, why did you tell us all those things if they weren't true?

MARTIN: I'm sorry. I just wanted you to think I was interesting.

ODO: You don't have to make things up, Martin. You're already interesting!

DOODLE: Yeah, you've been everywhere.

ODO: And you have the best stories.

DOODLE: Can you tell us what your home was really like?

DESCRIPTION: Martin opens up his book.

MARTIN: That's why I brought this album. It's from my forest.

[All gasp]

DESCRIPTION: All of the birds gather around the picture book. Martin shows them photos of elephants, frogs, and a waterfall.

ODO: Whoa. An elephant!

DOODLE: And look at the frogs.

[Odo laughs]

DESCRIPTION: Martin points to the waterfall photo.

MARTIN: This was my favourite spot.

ODO: Oh, wait right here.

DESCRIPTION: Odo sits at the top of the playground slide, holding a bucket of water.

ODO: We can't make an elephant, but we can make a waterfall!

DESCRIPTION: Odo pours the water down the slide. A rainbow appears at the bottom of the slide. All of the birds pass Odo more buckets of water, so there is a continuous stream flowing down the slide.

MARTIN: Whoa!

DOODLE: Do you still miss your home?

MARTIN: I do. But having friends like you makes me feel a lot better.

[Doodle giggles]

DESCRIPTION: Martin turns to Camp Leader.

MARTIN: Umm, do you think we could slide on the waterfall?

CAMP LEADER: Of course!

[Laughing]

DESCRIPTION: Martin, Odo, and Doodle slide down the waterfall.

ALL: Yay! Wheeee!
