Elliot the worm decides that he'd like to join the Budgies, but when Samuel and Rudy bring him to a meeting, Mr Beakman points out that the Budgie Code says a Budgie is a bird who never gives up. Elliot, being a worm, doesn't qualify. The group must appeal to the Grand Budgie to change the rules and accept all creatures that never give up into the Budgies.

Mr Beakman is mounting an art show and Rudy, Samuel and Muffin ask if they can enter a painting. Mr Beakman agrees, but there is only room for one more painting. The kids can't agree on what to paint and show up at the art show empty-handed. Then Samuel gets the idea that they can paint the whole tree - that way, everyone can paint what they want!

When Muffin accidentally drops her favourite toy Chloe all the way down to the ground, Mr Beakman agrees to lead an expedition to rescue it. The birds prepare an earth buggy and explore the ground in search of Chloe.
