Okay! Take a look at this!
‐ Rocksy? ‐ Yes, Twig?
Why did you bring us all the way out here?
Isn't it obvious? She's going to mulch us.
‐ What? ‐ Oh, yeah, brother!
It's a mulching party!
‐ Let's do this. ‐ What? No!
I very much want you alive and intact for this.
Why are you wasting my time?
I've come up with something
that I think you're going to find very exciting...
a game.
A what?
Gay‐mah.
Gaaayyme.
Gaa‐own‐m. Muh‐muh‐muh‐muh‐muh.
Doesn't ring a bell.
The game is called Ball‐Hoop,
and the goal of the game is to hit the ball, me,
through the hoop, Leaf.
‐ I am the hoop. ‐ Good job, Leaf! Great hoop.
Way to get into the spirit of the game.
Twig, you are the mallet. And, Berry, you're the player.
Now all Berry has to do is use you to hit me through Leaf,
who is already in position.
Leaf!
‐ What? ‐ Be serious so we can have some fun.
Okay, thank you for following directions!
You guys stand over here. Fabulous.
Okay, just tap me through Leaf. That's it. That's the game.
‐ Game? Gammee? No! ‐ Guys, c'mon, let's play the game.
‐ What? ‐ What?
Leaf! You're supposed to be in a hoop!
This is kind of like a hoop.
Guys, listen to me, I give the orders,
you follow my directions, that's how we get stuff done.
Leaf: hoop.
Twig: mallet. Berry: swing. Go!
What...?
Oh, nice.
We did it!
Yeah!
Oh, no, no, no, she's headed for the water!
I'm headed for the what?
The water, the water!
Oh, the water.
No!
She just sank right to the bottom like a, like a, you know,
- a piece of, you know, a heavy thing. ‐ I got it!
- I'm too floaty. ‐ Let me try.
Yeah, I'm too blowy.
I'm too...
floaty?
Unoriginal.
Oh, they're too floaty. There's gotta be a way out of here.
Wow, this place is a dump.
Getting darker. Gotta love that.
The edge of the pit. Maybe I can climb up.
If only I could see.
Oh, hi there, cutie‐pie. Oh, you are timely.
Heh‐heh, that's extremely annoying.
But if you move a little bit, you can help me see what I'm dealing with.
Okay, thank you.
Now, I'll use my eyeballs to view my path to safety.
Not climbing out.
And now I'm sinking. I hope they're having better luck up top.
I call it "spitting for freedom."
‐ I think we can do better. ‐ I got it, make way!
Take that, pond! Uh! Take that.
Well, at least they're trying? Ow! Great.
Oh, this is so frustrating.
All they have to do is attach a string to something heavy,
drop it down here, and then I can climb out.
If only I had a way to tell them...
No. Stop that. That's annoying.
Nothing we're trying is working.
Let's just close our eyes, and let the universe tell us what to do.
What if...
we tried working together?
No. Stop that. That's annoying.
Welp, the universe has spoken.
We must follow our own separate paths.
‐ Can't argue with that. ‐ Yep, makes sense to me.
I've got it!
That'll do it.
Those guys need to stop messing around and give me a hand.
Making some real headway here,
just got to pick up the pace a little bit.
Oh, I'm useless!
Yes, you are! But not to worry, sibling.
Reinforcements...
have...
uh, arrived.
So your plan is also scooping?
Yeah, but my hand is bigger,
so obviously I will scoop way more water. Duh!
My gains...
Yeah, this is a mess.
Yes, Berry! Oh, yes, yes, yes!
She's actually getting down here. It's working!
Oh, she's hit neutral buoyancy.
‐ What? ‐ Twig, it's basic physics.
No, stop! That is a bad idea!
I hate this.
At least I'll never have to hear that again.
More of you. That's great.
No!
‐ We failed her! ‐ I miss her already.
She only ever thought about us, never herself.
We couldn't even help her play her gayme...
‐ Gaamee? ‐ Gah‐me.
‐ G‐ gamee? - Gay‐ mah.
‐ Game. ‐ Guh.
Thanks, guys.
I wish I'd never been grown!
Twig's about to snap.
If only I could communicate with them, I could tell them my plan.
Not again, stop!
Why do you keep doing that?
Wait, I think I get it. Do it again!
I'm gonna ride this baby to freedom!
I can't hold on much longer!
Oh, she's gonna be stuck in that hole forever!
I can't hold on much longer!
I know. We let you down, Rocksy!
‐ Wait. ‐ Rocksy?
I got their attention? But how?
Wait, what?
A hearing hole? What does that mean?
