Episode 2: sweetie pie offers to help out with this fun magic act, and is introduced by old friend Scritch(manager with an attitude!), to Nibbles (Magician of questionable ability) Priscilla (fluffy, feminine, fun and PINK!) and Al (who, frankly, defies description!)

Episode 3: After a brief bit of coaching by Scritch, sweetie pie nervously steps up and begins to describe to the small yet attentive audience the amazing trick that Nibbles is about to perform. Turning a toad into a dove is certainly a nice trick, and sweetie pie can't wait to see it happen! Squeaking a bit, sweetie pie tries to remember, what were those magic words again?

Episode 4: Oh noes, sweetie pie said the wrong words!
"sweetie pie, that's not what I told you to say!" Scritch cries, as a very unhappy skunk appears, knocking poor Al to the ground, while a funky smell sends the audience back a few paces!

Episode 5: Suddenly Everything goes blurry, lightning flashes, and the bus, the magician, the manager, the helpers, and sweetie pie all seem to be swirling out of control! BAM they land - in a cornfield? Nibbles says a few magic words and the bus disappears (Whoops! He was only trying to set the parking brake! Oh well...)
Off in the distance they spot what looks like a tornado, and Nibbles and Scritch head for it immediately - "Now I KNOW something is up!" thinks sweetie pie, "they were expecting this!" as they head into the cornfield, which is looking more and more like a maze! "Oh dear" thinks sweetie pie, "what is that around the corner???"

Episode 6: sweetie pie hangs back as the group comes upon some rather creepy looking scarecrows... Nibbles is playing it cool (Al is simply hungry) while Priscilla and Scritch glance nervously at the stick figures
Perhaps they should have been more concerned about the crows peering out at them from the corn... Those crows don't seem to be afraid of them OR the scarecrows!

Episode 7: "Caw, caw, caw!!" scream the crows as they swoop in to attack the unsuspecting group!
Hiding behind a cornstalk, Priscilla shrieks in fear as a crow nibbles her toe! Al doesn't seem too distressed. Having heard the story of "four and twenty black birds baked in a pie" poor Al starts counting the swooping birds, hoping there's enough to make a nice dessert (fortunately for the crows, Al has no idea how to cook).
Nibbles is trying to protect his ears from the mischievous crows, while sweetie pie wonders what the magic word for "shoo" is?

Episode 8: As sweetie pie and friends are being harassed by the fiendish flock, a helpful toad has some advice, "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" he whispers mysteriously...
sweetie pie has had enough and shouts, "What does that mean???" and the toad croaks, "Grab a scarecrow, silly!"
So sweetie pie and friends each grab a scarecrow and the raucous ravens finally head for the hills, leaving a very shaky group of friends to gingerly put back the (still creepy) scarecrows, who are looking at them just a little too intensely for inanimate objects...

Episode 9: As sweetie pie, Nibbles and Scritch are asking directions from a frantic toad, Al and Priscilla notice that this crazy corn maze they find themselves in seems to have even crazier critters in it!

Episode 10: Ewwww! sweetie pie and friends are running away from these batty bovines, and stepping in something terribly nasty - Nibbles says some magic words and suddenly the nasty substance turns to grape jelly!
sweetie pie doesn't even want to think about what they just stepped in... gross!

Episode 11: "Quick, Nibbles, do something besides clean-up, these cows are crazy!" sweetie pie shouts at the clumsy magician.
While Nibbles frantically searches for a "cow-whisperer" spell, Scritch, in a very un-cat-like maneuver, grabs some bales of hay and starts tossing them at the bonkers beasties! sweetie pie quickly joins in, and soon the peculiar herd is happily munching. sweetie pie and friends slip away and continue exploring this crazy corn maze!

Episode 12: "We'll never find our way out of this corn maze!" sweetie pie exclaims, but Scritch has an idea, and the friends climb on one another's shoulders to get a better view of the maze, and the way out! Unfortunately, they chose Al to climb to the top, and before he could see much of anything, he was tumbling back down to the ground with a thud! While this didn't hurt much (he was used to being sawed in half in the magic act, after all) it also didn't help them find the path...

Episode 13: sweetie pie looks on skeptically as Nibbles tries to see the way out with his crystal ball. Scritch is terrified of the "CAT-tastrophe" she sees in the magic ball. Priscilla is even more terrified, thinking that it's a mirror! "Oh dear, do I really look that mussed?" Priscilla cries, frantically searching for her comb...
Al looks hungrily at the crystal ball. sweetie pie wonders if Al is seeing a nice lunch in the crystal ball, or does the silly gator simply want to eat the crystal ball itself???
Nibbles can't concentrate with all this noise, and the crystal ball just keeps showing him advertisements for liver pills and the latest kitchen gadgets! Sigh...

Episode 14: sweetie pie is wondering if they will ever get going again, when Nibbles remembers he has a map! Scritch (who is the navigator on their tour bus) quickly consults the map and they head off in the direction indicated.
sweetie pie thinks maybe they shouldn't put too much faith in a map with such odd symbols on it. Wasn't that a picture of a ferris wheel in the lower left corner? And why did it say, "This way to the big top" on the other side? Oh well, better keep up, no sense getting lost all alone!

Episode 15: As sweetie pie and the gang are starting to make some headway in this crazy maze, they begin to hear strange, frightening sounds! Giggling, talking and laughing, that must be, no wait, it can't, it... it is! It's HOOMANS!! AHHHHHH!

sweetie pie is questing!
Episode 16: Closer and closer the hoomans come, while sweetie pie and friends tremble in fear! What sorcery is this? Where are they that they would actually see hoomans??? Scritch's hair stands on end as the blonde haired hooman reaches for him!
"Nice kitty" the hooman coos, as Scritch prepares to make a run for it!

sweetie pie is questing!
Episode 17: Nibbles is frantically waving his wand, but alas, he doesn't know any magic that works on hoomans! As the group prepares to be "petted" by these unknown assailants, sweetie pie hides around the corner and sounds forth a terrific "ROAR" which sends the hoomans running away (although why they are still giggling sweetie pie can't understand, are they actually here for entertainment?)

sweetie pie is questing!
Episode 18: sweetie pie is surprised to see toads running in obvious fright! What could have spooked them so? sweetie pie didn't think anything would scare them! Off in the distance, there's a strange noise, and it seems to be coming closer... now what??

Episode 19: "Oh no, not the Hydra again!" Nibbles mutters, as Scritch starts walking backwards with a hiss... sweetie pie can't figure out if this creature is happy, angry or what? Each face has a different expression! It mostly looks curious, but as it gets closer, it seems to be getting bigger... sweetie pie thinks maybe they shouldn't wait to find out!

sweetie pie is questing!
Episode 20: As the magician and helpers do a quick disappearing act, the Hydra is busy roasting ears of corn for lunch. Too bad sweetie pie didn't know how friendly they were, roasted corn is delicious!

Episode 21: Finally sweetie pie can stand it no longer, and demands an explanation from the recalcitrant bunny.
"Why are we chasing a tornado??" sweetie pie demands to know, "and how did you even know what was going to happen?"
Nibbles sighs and replies, "Okay, you're right, we knew this might happen! We've been through this before, and the only way to get back is to follow the tornado until we can get close enough to hitch a ride home!"
sweetie pie isn't too happy with this news, but it gets even worse!
"The thing is" Nibbles continues, "We need to be all together in a structure of some kind. The bus worked great last time, but I accidentally sent it home without us." "WHAT!!" sweetie pie cried, "Now what do we do???"
sweetie pie shudders as the crew looks toward the creepy house... Al just wonders if there might be snacks in there...

sweetie pie is questing!
Episode 22: sweetie pie lets the Magician's crew go in first, since they (hopefully) know what they are doing... and bumps into them as they stop in shock at the HUGE bat they find inside!

sweetie pie is questing!
Episode 23: Just as sweetie pie thinks they may catch a break, the huge bat wakes up! As the frantic friends start singing a lullaby, the creature becomes even more agitated at their off-key performance.
Nibbles knows there is no way to make THOSE voices any better, so instead he quickly casts a spell on the bat's ears, who now hears a lovely harmony and dozes off again, dreaming of music and his favorite snack (which happens to be lizard - if Al only knew!)

sweetie pie is questing!
Episode 24: "Now I can get to work!" Nibbles mutters, rubbing his paws together. Being a mediocre magician, Nibbles enjoys using the tornado to make real magic, and begins the process of transporting them home, while Al rummages through the cupboards for a snack... oh noes, Al, don't eat the leftovers!

sweetie pie is questing!
Episode 25: Safely at home (sort of, where are we exactly? sweetie pie wonders) Nibbles asks sweetie pie about coming to the next show to help out again.
"No!" shouts sweetie pie, backing away, "I'm finished with magic!"
"Fair enough" Scritch replies, "but the house is yours, we've been to so many of these dimensions, we have more houses than we can ever use!"
sweetie pie looks in panic at the spooky house, but Nibbles tries to be reassuring, "Don't worry, the mega-bat isn't in there... I don't think..."
sweetie pie isn't reassured... but after an adventure like this one, even a bat seems a bit tame!
Now to go change visitor pets, so some other pet can help with their magic act! (Maybe sweetie pie should warn the next pet about what might happen? Nah...)
