Back at the crash site, Blue was trying to get the radio working.
"Hello? Hello?" Blue called.
"Come on, Blue, you got to do something, man." Louis said.
"Hey, hey, hey." Blue said. "Hello? Hello?"
Louis getting fed up, then stood up.
"Charlie, come on, man, we gotta do something." Louis said walking up to him.
"What can we do?" Charlie said laying on a rock with his shades on. "We have to wait and hope that Santa Claus over there can fix the radio or someone comes looking for us."
"But no one even knows we're out here." Jimmy said.
"Actually, someone... is looking for us." Louis said uneasily.
Charlie sat up and removes his glasses as the Wild Kratts turn to him.
"Mr. Smith." Louis said.
Blue stared as he works the radio.
"Louis!" Charlie said.
"Got something to say?" Koki questioned.
"He didn't say... what I said he said." Louis confessed.
"What did he said you didn't say he said?" Charlie asked.
"He thinks we stole his package, man, so he's coming after us." Louis explained.
"What?" Aviva said.
"Anything else we should know?" Martin asked.
"And he mentioned this little thing about cutting us into little bitty pieces and snacks for a crocodile." Louis added. "Then the phone went out, man, I can't-"
"If Smith think we stole his money, then by now Sal thinks we stole it." Charlie said.
"Hey, man, Sal's not gonna hurt us." Louis said. "He's married to your mother."
"I wouldn't be so sure of that." Chris said.
Charlie then turns to him. "If Sal Maggio thinks we stole his money, he'll kill us in front of my mother, then make her clean it up."
"All we have to do is find the money before Mr. Smith finds us, and everything is okay." Louis said.
"I see, so what you're saying is we should find the money." Charlie said.
"Yes." Louis said.
"How, Louis?!" Charlie snapped making Louis jumped. "How?!"
'Hey. Hey." Louis said. "Hey, hey."
"How are we gonna catch a kangaroo on foot?!" Charlie angrily snapped.
Louis mumbled an "I don't know", and thinks for a moment. "Got it." He had an idea and went up to Blue. "You ever heard of Devil's Marbles?"
"Due east. Bit of a walk, though." Blue said. "Why, what's there?"
Louis turns back to Charlie. "That lady I told you about at the wildlife office."
"The epileptic?" Charlie said.
"Yes." Louis said. "She works with animals and I bet you anything she can help us catch Jackie Legs."
"Oh, please!" Charlie said dismissively.
"Charlie." Louis said. "It's better than being cut up into little bitty pieces, man."
"Especially being fed to a Saltwater Crocodile." Chris added.
Charlie turns back to Louis. "Not if you go first and I get to watch." He said with a smug look.
Louis stared.
"Look out, you blokes go ahead." Blue said. "I'll fix the radio, be right with you."
"Which way is east, man?" Louis asked.
"Uh... That way." Blue pointed ahead.
"Let's go, man." Louis said as they head off.
"No, no, no, wait there." Blue quickly said. "That way." He pointed behind him.
They turn to each other.
Later, they were hiking in the Outback desert.
"Charlie?" Louis said.
"Uh-huh." Charlie said.
"I'm worried about Waffles." Louis said. "Do you think she'll be okay with Sal?"
"Oh, sure. As long as she doesn't dig up any bodies in the backyard, she should be just fine." Charlie said slightly sarcastically.
"Good." Louis said.
"How far did Blue say this place was?" Charlie asked as they climbed a dune.
"He didn't." Louis said. "He just said it was due east."
"So is Brooklyn." Charlie said.
"Northeast to be exact." Koki corrected.
Charlie and Louis then slid back down the hill.
At Sydney Airport, a McDonnell Douglas lands on a runway.
And Frankie and is men exit the airport as an African American man with a rugged appearance was seen with a clipboard labeled, "Lombardo".
"You're the guide?" Frankie asked.
"Yes, sir." He said. "My name Mr. Jimmy. First-rate, expert Outback guide. You'll be most happy with me."
"Great freaking start." Frankie said. "Hey, uh, listen, you know where we can get some guns around here?"
"No worries." Mr. Jimmy said. "You boys hunters?"
"Yeah, hunters." Frankie said.
Meanwhile, Charlie, Louis and the Wild Kratts were still heading east through the Outback.
"I think I just sweated out a bottle of Yoo-Hoo I drank in the 8th Grade." Charlie said.
They continued hiking as Charlie looked back.
"Shh, shh, shh, be cool." Charlie said.
"What?" Louis asked.
"Dingoes." Charlie said.
"Dingoes?" Jimmy nervously said.
They looked back and saw a pack of 5 Dingoes approaching them.
"Hey, that one kinda looks like Waffles." Charlie said mentioning one of them.
"Yeah, if Waffles had a crazed look in his eyes and his face caked in blood." Louis said and then noticed something about the Dingoes. "Charlie?"
He saw all the Dingoes looking at him and looked kinda hungry.
"Why are they staring at me like that?" Louis asked getting nervous.
"Because I'm a green leaf salad and you're the all-you-can-eat buffet." Charlie smugly said.
One Dingo then growled baring his teeth.
"Hey, hey, Charlie, you gotta help me out, man." Louis nervously said. "They gonna get me like I got that baby!"
"Stay calm, Louis, Dingoes are usually wary towards people." Chris tried to assure him.
A Dingo snarled as then the wind picked up.
"Whoa. Feel that?" Charlie said. "Wind suddenly picked up."
"It's like all of a sudden the air conditioner's fixed." Louis said.
Then one of the Dingoes whined as it took off.
"Charlie, where are the Dingoes going?" Louis asked.
Charlie watched the pack flee, he wasn't an expert, but felt that the Dingoes knew something.
"I think something bad is about to happen here, Louis." Charlie said not liking this.
"Uh, I suggest we take cover." Chris said.
"Oh, hey, Charlie, look." Louis said enjoying the breeze. "This feels good. I feel like I can fly."
The wind blows stronger as a sandstorm begins.
"I like this too." Jimmy said too relieved to notice the danger.
"LOUIS!" Charlie yelled.
He and the Wild Kratts took cover behind a rock.
"LOUIS!" Charlie yelled.
"Jimmy, snap out of it!" Koki yelled.
"I believe I can fly!" Louis said.
And then suddenly Louis and Jimmy were tossed into the air flying back screaming as they looked back.
"LOUIS, I WANNA GO BACK TO BROOKLYN!" Charlie yelled.
He too was suddenly carried off by the wind.
Back at the crash site, Blue was still working on the radio and finally got it working.
"Come in, Tansy, over." Blue called.
"Read you, over." Tansy responded.
"Boy, am I glad to hear you." Blue said.
"Listen, I've crashed me plane. Can you send some help?"
"Your location, over." Tansy said.
"It's, uh..."
"It's west to the Simpson and, uh, just south of King's Canyon." Blue said.
Then suddenly, Mr. Smith appeared from nowhere and rips the microphone from the radio.
And Blue lost contact with her.
"Tansy?" Blue called.
Smith brought out some duct tape.
"Do you read me, Tansy?" Blue called.
Smith placed the tape over Tansy's mouth and sliced off a section with his knife.
"Tansy?" Blue called.
Smith kicks the chair aside.
"Do you read me?" Blue called.
Miles away, Charlie, Louis and the Wild Kratts were still wandering through the Outback.
"Must have been like some kind of freak sandstorm." Louis said.
"Think so?" Charlie said.
"I think you need to eat." Louis said. "Your blood sugar's getting low."
"Stop it, Louis. Okay?" Charlie said trying to keep food out from his mind. "Please, just stop it."
"You know what I could really go for right about now?" Louis said. "Some Roscoe's chicken and waffles... with a side of grits and a side of gravy."
"I'm not listening to you." Charlie said.
"Oh. Or better yet, one of those iced mocha-schmoca things from Starbucks." Louis said. "They're so cold and creamy."
"I could go for some Brookyln pizza and a ice-cold Coke right now." Jimmy said.
Then Charlie saw something.
"My God." Charlie said.
Ahead of them was a Jeep Wrangler.
Charlie breathes heavily and then heads over to the Jeep as they watched him.
"Can you believe this?" Charlie beamed. "Can you believe our luck?" He then turns to them. "What are the chances?" He turns back to the Jeep. "It's a miracle!" He then climbs in the Jeep. "Oh, yeah!"
He turns the key as the engine starts up and laughs.
"Tunes!" Charlie said.
He pushed the tunes in the slot, and it starts playing "It Takes Two" as Charlie snaps with the rhythm and laughed. And Louis and the Wild Kratts went over but with baffled looks.
"Hey, Louis, what are you waiting for?" Charlie asked.
He laughed as the music abruptly stops as Charlie was sitting on the ground with his hand holding on thin air as the Jeep was a mirage.
"Come on, hop in." Charlie said delusional and looked to his left. "Hey, look." He then grabs a rock. "They got Slurpees."
"Oh, Charlie." Louis said.
Charlie then slurps his "Slurpee" and then winced.
"Brain freeze!" Charlie said.
"Uh, should we...?" Martin asked.
"Let's... give him a minute." Aviva said.
A while later, they were back wandering through the desert as Charlie's mirage finally wore out.
"It seemed so real." Charlie said.
"That's why they call it a mirage." Louis said. "At least you got to have fun for a few minutes."
"Yeah, because my brain is frying, and I'm losing contact with reality." Charlie said as his right arm swung with a snapping motion. "You don't understand this because this is how you usually function."
Louis stopped dead in his tracks.
"That was uncalled for, Charlie." Louis said offended.
"Was it?" Charlie said turning to him. "Every decision you make, Louis, is a disaster."
"That's right, Charlie, just blame me." Louis said. "That way you relieve yourself of all responsibility. But let me tell you something... it's easier to mock than to do, and you do nothing. You just complain and whine like a woman."
"You want to see me do something?" Charlie inquired.
"Bring it on, queen of the desert." Louis challenged.
Charlie then shoves Louis as he stumbled nearly losing his footing, and Louis shoves him back. And then the 2 weakly wrestled and brought to their knees, and then banged a fist at each other's backs.
But then Charlie noticed something.
"Louis. Louis, wait a second." Charlie said. "I'm having another one of those mirages. And this one's a beauty."
Through the desert blaze, silhouette was seen heading towards them as it was Jessie on a Dromedary. And Charlie got to his feet and heads over as Louis got up.
"Uh, Charlie, I don't think she's..." Chris said.
"Charlie." Louis said.
"Shh. Louis, please. Let me enjoy this." Charlie said.
Louis remained silent and the Wild Kratts turned around having a bad feeling this wasn't going to end well.
Holding a water canister, Jessie went over to Charlie as he still thinks she's a mirage. And Jessie can tell he looked a little heat exhausted, and he fixed his hair.
"How you doing?" Charlie asked.
"Good. You?" Jessie said.
"Good." Charlie said.
Charlie then turns to her chest area and then after a few moments, he suddenly placed his hands on her.
"Louis, they feel so real." Charlie turning to him.
Louis knew well this was going to end in one certain way.
Charlie then turns back to Jessie, and she suddenly whacks him in the head with the canister as everything went black.
Sometime later, Charlie lays unconscious on the desert ground and soon stirs. He soon wakes up and blinks a few times, and then standing over him was Kangaroo Jack as he bends down and sniffs him.
"It's you." Charlie said.
"Yeah, it's me." Jackie Legs said suddenly in an Australian accent. "Love the jacket, Charlie. It's hard to get something that fits my shoulders. Nice! How'd you know red was my favorite color?"
"You can talk!" Charlie said.
"And I can sing." Jackie Legs added placing on a pair of shades.
I said a hip hop
Hippie to the hippie
The hip, hip a hop, and you don't stop, a rock it
To the bang bang boogie, say, up jump the boogie
To the rhythm of the boogie, beat
"This is great." Charlie said speechless.
See, I am Jackie Legs, and I'd like to say hello
To the black, to the white
"Jackie? Um... Mr. Legs?" Charlie said. "If you could find your way clear to give me back my money..."
"Money?" Jackie Legs said turning to Charlie. "Oh, you mean that money!" He gestured to his right.
A trio of kangaroos were playing around with the $50,000 and one chews on a bill.
"Stop that!" Charlie said. "Stop that! Stop that! Hey! Stop that, please! If Sal finds out..."
Then one kangaroo leaped to his feet after a spinning move.
"If I find out what, Charlie?" The kangaroo said in Sal's voice. "That you lost my money?"
"Sal?" Charlie stared.
"I ask you to do something for me." Sal said. "This is not that!"
"It wasn't my fault, it was Louis." Charlie said.
"Say what?" Louis's voice said. "My fault?"
Charlie turns to a heavy-build kangaroo.
"That's how you pay me back after I saved your life?" Louis said.
"Louis?" Charlie frowned.
"Next time you drowning in the ocean, call Free Willy!" Louis said. "Let Willy set you free! You know what, Sal? You were right about him... Chicken blood!"
"Smell it on his father." Sal said. "Smell it on him. Chicken blood!"
"Oi! Chicken blood!" Jackie Legs said.
"Chicken blood!" He, Sal and Louis chanted. "Chicken blood! Chicken blood!"
Charlie then wakes up and gasped, it was now evening as they were at a campsite. And Jessie went over to him as Charlie saw she wasn't a mirage this time.
"Here. Drink this." Jessie handing a small vial. "It'll bring down the swelling."
Charlie started drinking it.
"Unfortunately, it will also make your testicles fall off." Jessie said.
Charlie then spits out the drink as well as Louis spitting out a mouthful of food.
"I'm kidding." Jessie assured.
Charlie slightly smiled and drinks more of the vial.
"It won't bring down the swelling." Jessie said.
Charlie spits out the drink as Louis laughed as Jessie walks off.
Charlie leans back on the rock and placed the ice pack back on his head, and the joke was likely to even after what happened.
Many miles back at the crash site, the lights of a Jeep shined Blue saw it approaching and held his hand out from the bright lights and soon stopped.
"About bloody time." Blue said.
Instead of help, it was Smith and his 2 henchmen as they approach Blue.
"Where are they?" Smith demanded.
"Piss off!" Blue snapped. "15 years Special Air Services, behind the line! I'm down and out, mate. I forgot more than you ever learned. You'll get nothing out of me!"
Smith then rough his knife out and points at him.
"Devil's Marbles." Blue said. "Took off on foot, about 10 hours ago."
"See, that wasn't so difficult." Smith said.
One of his henchmen then punched him hard in the gut.
At their campsite, Jessie was going for a notebook as Charlie appeared and knocked on her canister.
"Knock-knock." He said.
Jessie gasped covering her chest.
"Very funny." Charlie said.
"Can't be too careful." Jessie said.
"Yeah, I'm really sorry about that." Charlie apologized. "I didn't think they were real."
Jessie turns to him.
"Oh, no! I mean, I thought they were real..." Charlie tried to explain.
"Relax, I know what you mean." Jessie assured. "Louis explained."
"Listen, Louis and I have a problem..." Charlie explained.
"And I already told him, I can't help you find our Roo." Jessie said. "I've got to get to Alice Springs. Sorry."
"That's okay." Charlie said. "I understand."
He then turns to get up, but then froze and turns back to her.
"What?" Jessie asked.
"Look, um... Louis told me you need some money to repopulate the Earth with your rabbits." Charlie said.
"Bilbies." Jessie corrected.
"Bilbies." Charlie said. "How about this, we give you $2,000... you help us get our stuff back."
"$2,000?" Jessie said stunned.
"Strictly business, no strings attached." Charlie said. "What do you say? We got a deal?"
"Deal." Jessie said shaking his hand.
"Great." Charlie said. "Hustle makes it happen. Let's get moving."
"Now?" Jessie frowned.
"You see, our passports are just about to expire..." Charlie explained.
"9 of the 10 most venomous snakes in the world live in Australia." Jessie said. "And they all come out at night."
And Australia is home to 100 species of venomous snakes and spiders. Red-bellied Snakes, Beaked Sea Snakes, Rough-scaled Snakes, Australian Copperheads, Tiger Snakes, Death Adders, Australia's biggest venomous snake, the King Brown Snake, Coastal Taipan, and the Eastern Brown Snake is the second most venomous snake. And the deadliest of them all: the Inland Taipan, also called the Fierce Snake.
The neurotoxic venom of the Inland Taipan is so potent, it's the most toxic of any snake, one bite yields 110 milligrams and can kill 100 adult humans, and 250,000 mice.
And the Sydney Funnel-web Spider ranks one of the venomous spiders in the world.
Charlie stared with a nervous look.
"How do you feel about a morning start?" Charlie asked making the wise choice rather than becoming the next victim list of snakebites.
Jessie lightly smiled.
Author's Note:
Considering that the correct term is 'Venomous' with snakes, I corrected that one part of Jessie's sentence with the snakes.
And if I lived in Australia, I would be more terrified about the spiders rather than the snakes. Snakes I can handle, but not spiders, especially big ones.
I sure hope when Season 7 of Wild Kratts arrives, they'll do more episodes in Australia. They aren't doing enough on snakes you know, and a Perentie episode would be cool as will.
