Written By: Not known

Guest Items: Loud Flowers, Cassie's Crystal Collection

Overview: [courtesy of South Dakota PBS]

Challenge: Accepting one's own differences

The group sets sail for Rainbow Canyon in search of a special rainbow-colored crystal to complete Cassie's shimmering crystal set. When Ord's heavy weight rocks their little boat and they all fall into the water, he's sad because he fears they'll have to continue on their adventure without him. He hates being so big! The gang solves the dilemma by crafting a bigger, Ord-size boat and off they go again.

What I saw:

Max plays with a sailor toy, fumbles with it, and the boat piece separates, Emmy puts it back together and puts the toy in the middle, where it is widest.
The group build a boat to go to a place where Cassie can pick up a rainbow crystal to complete her collection, but the boat is too small to fit everyone, including Ord, even after Max recommends he sit in the middle. Ord looks a bit pathetic, with him sitting in that boat, all wet. They build a new one, that fits everyone. They pick some loud flowers, and get lost. They end up going into Dirty Cave, which ends in a waterfall. Ord tries to save the boat by blocking the water, as the others pull the boat out. Ord helps them get the rainbow crystals. Ord's badge glows. Max uses the hutch where the secret drawer is in as the boat for his toy.(Discovering one's worth)

Comments: Ord's pretty strong, I think with some training he can be a good fighter in a role playing adventure. I'm working on my Turin series which includes him and Cassie in many adventures.

Goofs/Missing Items: It didn't seem right when Ord went straight up above the water... He should have been pulled with the current a meter, and when the water goes down low enough, he can escape the pressure of the water... it all depends on the environment though. Shoudn't those crystal be buried in the mud under the rock? And lifting that with his tail, that's not right... I was expecting to see his tail get torn up because of that, but i think their tail scakes are thicker than I thought.
