Whoa. Amazing.
Cool jet shoes, Ari. But are you sure they're safe?
Totally.
Just a couple of things you need to know about the controls.
Ari, you forgot to put an off-switch
on your comic book sorting machine.
Sorry, Mom. Be right back, Ellie. Hold this.
Ellie?
Ari!
Donna, look out!
Huh? Look out for what?
You almost smashed your melon.
Thanks, you two.
My deliveries took forever today.
And now I have so much to do to get ready for my backyard party.
Oh, right, for Rona and her dog, Glitzy.
It's the third anniversary of her adopting Glitzy.
And I just want it all to be perfect.
Do you need any help getting ready?
Help? What? No, thanks.
Just leave those paper plates on the patio table.
Then come back at 6:00, ready to party!
Well, it could be worse, right?
I don't see how.
Got it. Okay...
Donna's never gonna have time to cook and clean up this yard, too.
She needs a Zenko.
You're right. Let's go.
Ponzu, mission mode.
Go, go, go, go
Yeah!
Niah!
Ari!
Ellie!
Jax!
Team Zenko Go!
We heard the gong. What's gone wrong?
Donna's about to throw a big party for Rona.
But her backyard's a disaster area.
And she's too busy getting everything else ready to tame that jungle.
I know she really wants to make this celebration special for her sister.
So, Team Zenko Go,
your mission is to clean up Donna's yard before the party starts.
Nice, Ponzu. Maybe save those moves for the party.
Come on. We only have an hour.
Not so fast.
Remember, just because you have a rush order,
doesn't mean you don't follow the recipe.
We'll keep that in mind.
Let's do this thing. Team Zenko...
- Go! - Go!
Everybody, watch where you're going,
so you don't make any unnecessary noise.
Hello?
Oh, my backyard's an awful mess.
But, right now,
I've got some pigs to put in some blankets.
We can't make Donna's yard super awesome
if we have to tiptoe around.
I know how to keep her tuned out.
All right. Let's get this yard in shape.
But watch your step.
There are a lot of--
Rocks to trip over.
Come on, guys. Let's get going on this yard.
Shouldn't we make a plan?
We don't have time.
We've gotta get this done, and quick.
I'll clean up this junk.
I'll put it in the shed.
All right. I'm on hedge duty.
And I'll rock out on these rocks.
What about this grass?
Yikes. Talk about low tech.
- Is that a-- - Lawnmower? Yep.
Where's the motor?
Doesn't have one. Yet.
But a little upgrade should double its mowing power.
Faster. Must go faster.
It's lopsided.
May have picked up too many.
This is harder than I thought.
How did that happen?
What was that?
Ah, boy. This yard's worse than I remember.
I gotta get to that.
But first, those kebabs aren't gonna shish themselves.
We're running out of time.
We've gotta work faster.
Let's kick this up a notch.
Nope.
Stop.
Now you're talking!
I should have this running in an hour.
But the party starts in half-an-hour.
And this yard, it's worse than when we started.
What do we do?
We better call Yuki.
- Here you go, Kat. - Thanks, Yuki.
How's it going, team?
That yard lookin' spiffy for Donna's party?
We are a long way from spiffy.
And the party's starting soon.
Well, it's like I told you, even if it's a rush order,
stick to your recipe.
Yuki, got any soy sauce?
You'll figure it out. Gotta go.
What does she mean by "recipe"?
Well, a recipe is kind of a plan for how to cook something.
Oh, she wanted us to make a plan for how to fix up the yard.
Which we didn't do.
We kinda just dove in.
Literally.
Okay. Planning time.
I've seen my grandpa use a push mower.
I could cut the grass.
Go for it.
These rocks remind me of something I saw in Archaeology Club.
I'll even out this hedge.
And this big guy is calling out for my artistic touch.
Which leaves me the junk.
And I've got a plan for it. Let's go.
Look what I found.
I think I know how we can take these old lights to new heights.
Oh, no! Six o'clock already?!
Prepare to be Ellie-vated.
Rona? Fawna?
I was, uh, hoping you'd be fashionably late.
Well, I'm fashionably on time for once.
Wouldn't wanna be late for our third anniversary party,
wouldn't we, Glitzy-poo?
But, my yard's a mess.
I was cooking all day and I didn't have time to g--
Oh, it's so groovy.
Oh, wow. Look at this.
Stonehenge benches. How charming.
And look. A swing!
And look, Glitzy, see what Donna did
for our third anniversary.
You totally upcycled.
Oh, my word. Glitzy, that's us.
Cool yard!
Donna, you have outdone yourself.
Why, thank you, Rona.
But it was no trouble at all.
I mean, like, zero trouble.
Hey, folks, I got pigs in a blanket.
Awesome!
Yummy!
Delicious.
Probably because Donna has a great recipe.
Whoa. Looks like Ponzu did save his best moves for the party.
Coach Ian said these cones
have to be straight for soccer camp, right?
Yep. And did you know the first game of soccer
was played three thousand years ago?
Interesting. I had no idea soccer was so old.
What happened to our straight line?
W-What? How did that happen?
And how's that happening?
I got it.
Getting dizzy.
Gophers.
What was that?
Lula, are you okay?
Yeah, but a big, scary...
goose chased me.
A goose? Yeah, those can be scary.
- I don't see it anywhere. - Me neither.
What would a goose be doing here in the park this time of year?
It's not migration season.
It snapped at me with big, sharp teeth.
And I'm just worried that if there's soccer camp today...
There'll be a lot of kids in the park.
Yeah, so we can't have camp, right?
Well, all that commotion might freak out the poor goose even more.
Yeah. Then who knows what it would do.
Lula, maybe we should walk you home.
No, thanks. I'm running home.
Well, if there's a wild goose on the loose
and soccer camp's about to start--
I know where you're going with this.
And I think it's to Zenkotown.
Ponzu, mission mode.
Go, go, go, go
Yeah!
Niah!
Ari!
Ellie!
Jax!
Team Zenko Go!
We heard the gong. What's gone wrong?
Big honkin' problem.
A wild goose is loose in the park and it chased Lula.
With soccer camp starting this afternoon,
we need to make sure that goose stays away from the kids.
Yeah, geese can be cranky. And if there's one thing I know about
after all these years with Ponzu, it's cranky animals.
Just kidding, Ponzu.
No, I'm not.
I always say,
"The key to a great bowl of noodles
is figuring out what the customer likes."
Okay. Okay. Or figuring out what they don't like.
Ponzu, for instance, doesn't like when people touch his tail.
Y-yeah. Do geese have tails?
Well, as a matter of fact--
Team, your Zenko is to help Lula by getting that goose out of the park.
- Zenko... - Go!
Now, to track down that long-necked, web-footed, kid-scaring bird
and make this park safe for soccer.
Ooh, I've got goosebumps.
No person or goose can resist my jam and honey sandwiches.
Gophers.
Yeah!
Yeah! Luis takes the shot.
And it's blocked by Luis!
The crowd goes wild! Yeah! Huh?
A goose!
Creepy.
Check out the handy-dandy goose call I learned in Bird Watchers Club.
The goose is here.
It's getting closer.
Hello? Is someone honking at me?
Hello!
- Rodney. - Rodney.
We checked the whole park and came up with nothing.
Nada. Zero.
Yep, goose egg.
What if we look for tracks over where Lula first saw the goose?
Totally makes sense to me.
Weird. I thought she was too scared to be in the park.
Maybe I shouldn't have made up the goose story, Whiskers.
But I don't wanna do soccer camp.
'Cause what if I don't know anybody?
And nobody picks me to be their partner?
Lula made it up?
- That was all a wild goose chase? - Poor kid.
Sounds like what she's really afraid of is going to soccer camp.
Team, I think we just found our real Zenko.
Helping Lula get over her fear of soccer camp.
Yeah, that's an even more important Zenko.
But how?
Luis gets the ball, crosses mid-field,
then passes to...
absolutely nobody.
Luis needs someone to play soccer with
and Lula needs a friend. So...
Great idea.
If we get them together, Lula will know someone at soccer camp
and it won't seem so scary.
Yeah. Let's have them meet up by the skate park.
Ellie and I will get Luis there.
And Jax and I are on Lula.
Operation Luis-Lula Link-up is a go.
If we can get Whiskers on the move, Lula will follow.
When I got my snake-handling merit badge,
I learned that snakes follow each other.
So, if we get another snake...
How are we gonna do that?
Oh, don't worry. I've got something up my sleeve.
I hope it's not a snake.
Not a real snake.
I borrowed Ari's hologram generator.
It's working. He thinks it's real.
Whiskers, don't play with straying snakes.
Come back here!
Yes!
It's okay.
I'll get it. Myself. Again.
How do we get Luis to the skate park?
If only his ball would just roll over there,
our mission would be a piece of cake.
Hey, maybe it can.
But first, we need a distraction.
Distraction is my speciality.
- Goal! - Where?
Let's roll.
Come back here.
- Yes! - Yes!
Come back!
It's working, team.
Come back here, ball dude.
Whiskers, wait!
Hey, that's my ball.
Well, that's my snake.
I love it when a plan and new friends come together.
Well, I guess, I'd better be going.
Yeah, me, too.
Now it's not working.
We have to do something.
Remember what Auntie Yuki said?
Figure out what the customer likes. Or doesn't like.
And they both don't like geese.
Was that a goose? A real goose?
Those birds are scary, dude.
For me, it started with a bad day at the petting zoo.
But there's no way-- I mean, I made up the goose.
So I wouldn't have to go to soccer camp.
Wait, you did?
The soccer camp is totally awesome.
You get to, like, kick, pass, make goals,
and even bounce balls off your head.
Yeah, maybe.
But if there really is a goose, then we can't have camp anyway.
Yeah, you're right.
This dude stays away from all gooses.
I mean, geeses . Geese?
We got them talking, but at this rate,
they'll talk each other right out of soccer camp.
Hey. Have you two seen anyone else
riding around honking a super cool horn?
I keep hearing someone honking at me, but I can't find them.
And I've looked all over.
So, you haven't seen a goose around here?
A goose? No way.
Just another bike rider with a Honkatronic Nine Thousand,
the world's finest bike horn.
Sure would like to meet her or him.
So, there is no goose after all.
Which means I do have to go to soccer camp.
It'll be fun. Trust me.
Hey, you could be my partner.
Me? You want me to be your partner?
Wow, that'd be awesome.
Cool. And now I won't be the smallest one there, like usual.
Oh, yeah, and I'm Luis.
I'm Lula.
And I don't mind being the smallest one, as long as I have a friend.
So, Lula, want me to show you some awesome moves?
- We could even warm up together. - Sure, Luis.
Welcome, kids.
Ready for a super fun day of soccer?
- Yeah! - Definitely.
Cool moves, Lula and Luis.
Thanks. We've been practising. Together.
Looks like this wild goose chase turned out just fine.
Well done, team.
How about some victory noodles for my four favourite customers?
I know just what you want.
Yes, please.
All right. Shrimp for Ari. Veggie for Niah.
Extra spicy for Ellie. And double noodles for Jax.
Close enough.
