Hearty is questing!
Episode 1/28: Hearty was strolling down Pork Avenue one day and was surprised to find there was still a phone booth in this day and age. "Just another way for Frank and his fellow swine to make money out of us", she thought. "Still, why not phone a friend? I left my cellphone at home."

Episode 2/28: As Hearty approached the phone booth, a curious thing began to happen. Starting behind Hearty, a grey cloud began to cover the street, taking all of the colour away.
Njagi the zebra and old Fossey the gorilla, who were both entirely black and white, saw the cloud coming.
"It's just like the story you told me about," said Njagi. "The African story of how the pied crow will one day take all the colour from the world!"
"Well we won't be affected!" said Fossey. "But our friends will! Follow me, I have a plan!"

Episode 3/28: "Hey!" shouted Hearty as Fossey and Njagi barged her out of the way. "I was here first! Finders keepers!"
"Look behind you," said Njagi.
"I'm not falling for that!" said Hearty. "What do you think this is, a pantomime?" But she could not help looking. By now the entire street had lost all its colour.
Fossey was already carrying out his plan. The answer to all their problems must begin in a world of only black and white, where no-one was affected by the draining effect of colour loss. He was dialling a friend from the 1950's - Squeezey Skeezle!

Episode 4/28: Fossey was answered by the operator. Hearty was astonished to hear her asking Fossey who he wanted to call ... and when? What kind of a phone booth was this? With that, the three creatures suddenly disappeared. Hearty had a last glimpse of a completely grey street. Had the whole world of PnF had all the colour drained from it? How? Why?

Episode 5/28: Back in the 1950's, Squeezey Skeezle ran a Petective Agency with his Pfuzzle cousins, one of whom was visiting at the time. The phone rang. "I wonder what year this call will be from?" Squeezey asked himself. "It had better be important, I just bought myself my first televizhun ... tellyvishun ... what do they call these things? And I was hoping to see all the cool shows they have on in the afternoon in glorious black, white and grey!"

Episode 6/28: Squeezey's major investment in Science Fiction startups had entitled him to a prototype time travel phone (and plenty else besides). So when Fossey appeared, that was no surprise. But he wasn't expecting three pets at once!
"Hi Squeezey," said Fossey. "The phone booth works just like you said it would."
"Really?" said Squeezey. "so when did you make your call from?"
"2019", said Fossey. Squeezey was amazed.
"I promised I would call you back one day!" said Fossey. "But I kind of missed the 1960's in a haze, and after that the world was just so, uh, colourful ... I wasn't keen to go back to black-and-white. But now 2019 has gone grey and we need your egg timer to fix it!"

Hearty is questing!
Episode 7/28: Squeezey grabbed the egg timer and led the group into the street while Fossey explained. "A story tells of a pied crow laying grey eggs all over the world, replacing coloured eggs. In this way it will steal all colour from the world!"
"And that's a bad thing?" asked Squeezey's pfuzzle cousin.
"Yes," said Hearty. "In 2019 pets come in all colours. Now they can't tell who is who!"
"Well that's no good," said Squeezey. "We better go find those eggs. My egg-timer can move them back in time before they were stolen. That way they will go colourful again and the bird's plan will fail before it begins."

Episode 8/28: Squeezey ushered them all into his car.
"How can driving enable us to travel in time?" asked Hearty.
"You should mix with the right crowd," said Squeezey. "I know all the best inventors ... here in the 50's we can even see pictures broadcast over radio waves!"
"Oh brother!" said Hearty. But to her astonishment, as Squeezey started the car up, there was a flash of colour and the street disappeared.
"How can we tell where we are going?" asked Hearty.
"No, WHEN we are going," smirked Squeezey. "But how we get there? If I tell you that, everyone will have one of these cars and your grandkids will be messin' with yer family history!"

Episode 11/28: G'Day, Mate! Cried Hearty, as the car sped through the outback, with Uluru fading in the rear view mirror. A mob of 'roos bounded endlessly, one big boomer keeping pace with the car! Skeezle, afraid they were going to accidentally hurt it, pulled over where he leaned up on the car and returned Fossey's sunglasses he left behind at the last stop.
Njagi excused herself to make a small pit stop in the bush, hoping there were no danger noodles lurking, when she spied a Green Fern Egg and excitedly loaded up the trunk before Skeezle sped away!

Episode 12/28: Njagi was belting out I guess the rains down in Africa when Skeezle was keen to point out they were in Japan, silly, and that it was Mount Fuji they were climbing. Njagi rolled her eyes and wondered why it really mattered, when there on the highest peak was the Lil Stinker Egg they were looking for!

Episode 13/28: Uh, Hearty, I spied the egg, said Skeezle, but I don't think you're going to want to collect this one!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, cried Fossey, who was laughing, well, like a gorilla.
Well, happens, doesn't it? said Hearty. Holding a slightly used hanky over her nose, Hearty dug down deep and scooped up the Checkmate Red (Marble Egg).
Njagi watched the whole thing and in the bush.

Episode 14/28: And in the blink of an eye, the team finds themselves wandering in the Sonoran Desert, waiting for the car to cool down. Trying to beat the heat and stay cool, the team wandered over to the paltry shade offered by a cactus. Fossey, being silly and wearing the little pfuzzle like a hat, found a sugar skull half buried in the sand. Tugging it out, Hearty realized that there was an Eggciting Egg Trick Egg!
Njagi is fascinated with the brilliant colors and wishes she had a couple of the gems to add to her mane.

Episode 15/28: You know Skeezle, said Njagi, revving the engine over and over isn't going to get the group moving any faster.
Hearty called out that there was an egg here, and grabbed it up, all the while Fossey climbed around the ancient runes, paying homage to his ancestors.
But little did the friends realize that these old runes would also teleport them to another exotic location on the planet, and with a POP, they warped into another location.

Episode 16/28: I recently contracted a weird rash from planting tulips... I caught a Bulb-a-sore. Get it? cried Fossey.

Episode 18/28: G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S! cried Skeezle! Have you ever felt so Royal in your life, Hearty? Visiting the Crown Jewels has always been a dream!
Fossey! Be very careful what you pick up around here, said Hearty, we don't need the security detail on our detail!
Fossey, for once, took this very seriously and managed to grab up the Neon Purple Paws (Marble Egg) on the first try!

Episode 19/28: While Fossey was playing with the gear shift in the car, he hit the button that Hearty said he shouldn't. All at once, the friends were drifting in space when what should float by, but a Tan Paws Marble Egg in an alien ship, followed by a lazy, odd colored whale.
Njagi, being a smart zebra, snapped a quick Petchat to prove they were in space.

Episode 20/28: Look I have read the treasure map over and over. There is a Flower Power, Too Marble Egg here. The coordinates are right, grumbled Skeezle.
You know, just because you're working with us doesn't really qualify you as having a handicap, said Njagi, plopping her striped bottom down. You better move the car!
Well, someone better find that Flower Power, Too Marble Egg, said Hearty, or we aren't going anywhere!
I got it! I got it! Cried out the pfuzzle, Bean, and ran to the car with her arms full of Flower Power, Too Marble Egg!
And without further ado, the crew loaded up and headed out.

Episode 21/28: After rumbling down the old dirt road, Skeezle suggested the friends pitch a tent and enjoy a night taking in nature. Njagi, who had never really been off the plains of Africa, was excited to see all the lush green and couldn't wait to splash in the water!
Bean, the cute little pfuzzle, being a curious pfuzzle, explored the forest and came across a Spring Awakening Marble Egg floating in the reeds. She managed to scoop it up, before it went roaring down the river in the rapids and over the waterfall!

Episode 22/28: Fossey, mesmerized by the flock of seagulls performing across the courtyard is of no help while trying to find what they're looking for. Watching the birds fly high, and take aim on the unsuspecting visitors below, makes him laugh!
Hearty is in awe as well, the beauty of the Pet Maj Hal is a tick off the wish list! While drinking in the beauty, Hearty grabs Njagi and jumps up and down, yelling I found it!
Bean shimmied up the side of the building to grab the Drifting Swirls (Marble Egg), and tuck it into the car.
They could be on the way, if Skeezle would stop riding up and down the elevator.

Episode 23/28: Hey Fossey, if you pull the Jade Bloom (Marble Egg) out of the Leaning Tower of Pet-za, will our little pfuzzle friend Bean fall down with it? asked Hearty
You know, I'm not sure, that I care if it will, laughed Fossey, being a bit of a naughty ape.
Skeezle, waiting at the car, had a feeling he was baby sitting but not getting paid.

Episode 24/28: While searching the jungles of India, the friends hired a rather smug ferry captain to take them to the other side of the Ganges, whereupon Fossey clambered out of the car as soon as they made land, and was swinging on every possible vine! Hearty, not impressed with this acrobatic display during rainy season, just wanted to find what they were looking for and be dry. Without much fuss, Skeezle braved the nest of danger noodles, and scarfed up the Dragon Wings Egg! What a brave soul he is!

Episode 28/28: Though the team have brought colour back to their world, they are unaware the crow exists in five separate dimensions. Somewhere they can never go to, the pied crow has a nest full of coloured eggs. It throws out the ones the team have turned to black and white, for crows only love shiny things; but there are plenty more coloured eggs left in its nest.

Proud of their efforts,
the team thinks their quest is through;
the lights are dimmed,
and once again the stage is set for you.

And Hearty realises that it is time to return to her page, to give another pet the opportunity to experience this wonderful Quest!
