Within a few moments, the plant and sea life on the new panthalassic world quadruples in size, and the team becomes concerned about how rapidly they will become the smallest pets in the zoo plankton food chain, if they linger here!

Episode 8/25:
Verbena lands safely on another aquaplanet within the same galaxy, and the ladies tumble out of the spacecraft, keen to explore this ocean.

Episode 9/25:
It doesn’t take Violet long to realise that the hydrogen sulphide under those rocks should NOT be disturbed. EVER! Sulfur bubbles begin to rise, bursting all around Lavender and the unsuspecting local pets that had swum over to introduce themselves to the newcomers.

Episode 10/25:
After an uneventful flight, the rocket enters a young planetary system, and Verbena navigates to its sweet spot, where panthalassic and aquaplanets abound! Lavender requests a systematic approach to visiting these new ocean worlds, so they don’t miss any of them. Verbena and Violet quickly agree, so Verbena lands on the outermost aquaplanet in the Goldilocks Zone. The ladies tumble out to explore, while Verbena hovers their craft nearby, prepared for a quick getaway if the planet is not quite as hospitable as it first appears!

Episode 11/25:
The ladies are drawn to a school of small fish, and swim on over to take a closer look. “Eeeek!” shrieks Violet, when it becomes apparent that the school of small fish are actually baby sharks, with razor sharp little teeth! Lavender races Violet back to the rocket, and they tumble aboard, laughing nervously as Lavender counts her tentacles to make sure they are all still there!

Episode 12/25:
Verbena navigates the rocket to the next ocean world, a large panthalassic planet that looks perfect at first glance. The team all debark from the spacecraft, in order to reconnoiter the ocean world more efficiently.

Episode 13/25:
Nap time ends prematurely, however, when the ocean temperature plummets unexpectedly, and ice crystals begin forming around Verbena! Lavender and Violet both have to cuddle up to Verbena, to help her thaw out enough to swim back to the rocket, to resume their search for a habitable ocean world.

Episode 14/25:
The next ocean world in the sweet spot is another aquaplanet, whose oceans are not as deep as oceans on panthalassic planets. The team hopes this also means that it will not get as cold either!

As they tumble out of their craft, they look around in surprise, as this aquaplanet looks as if it might be uninhabited. Wisely having learned not to become too complacent, the team wonder why there is no visible sea life here? Clever pets!

Episode 15/25:
The team does not have long to wonder why they haven’t seen any local sea life! As they begin looking around, a giant kraken descends in their midst, causing the team to set new Power Pets' Distance Swimming records on their return to the spacecraft!

In spite of the close encounter, their spirits remain high, because the fresh air and water on these exoplanets has already flushed most of the toxins from their systems, leaving them bright eyed and bushy tailed, so to speak!

Episode 16/25:
The next ocean world in the sweet spot is another aquaplanet, populated with friendly sea creatures! The ladies are keen to halt their search and make new homes on this planet, but Verbena points out that, as friendly as these locals are, none of them are the same species as our team members. And just as Noah took pairs of pets on the Ark, finding an ocean world inhabited by their same species is necessary, if the ladies ever hope to marry?

The team is motivated to travel on in search of the perfect ocean world, knowing in their 5 hearts of hearts, they can return here before they run out of fuel, if they fail to find a perfect ocean world!

Verbena lands the rocket on another aquaplanet, and the team members scramble out, excited to see what sort of sea life inhabits this pretty planet!

Before very long, all manner of strange and somewhat scary mutant sea creatures emerge from crevices deep inside the underwater volcano. They station themselves all around the strange edifice, and their leader asks Verbena if she is here to make a sacrifice?

Episode 20/25:
Verbena’s theory about the vegetation being abundant certainly came to fruition, as the ladies discovered, to their dismay! For while they were sleeping, the vines grew up and all around them, neatly tying them to the ocean bed! Fortunately they had chosen to nap near a pod of clawed lobsters, who were only too happy to cut them free! And with a sigh of disappointment, the team bid the locals farewell, and returned to their rocket...

However Violet makes no secret of her delight when they discover this planet is inhabited by all manner of sea slugs and sea cucumbers!

Although Violet is hoping to make her new home with her teammates, she is sorely tempted to stay here! But Verbena promises to bring Violet back, if they can’t find a new planet inhabited by both octopi and sea cucumbers!

Verbena raps on the rocket fondly, suspecting that this will be the last time Lavender and Violet will be needing it…
