[edit] Episode recap
Orson and Wade are reading a book about pirates, which gives Roy an idea to dress up as a pirate himself and frighten them. After he does so, Orson and Wade run away, but Wade runs blindly and ends up crashing into just about everyone on the farm. Orson soon realizes that the pirate is really Roy, and everyone complains about the prank. Roy simply infers that they cannot take a joke, but then Lanolin calls him ''banana nose'', and everyone laughs. Roy is visibly insulted by this, but he insists that the label won’t bother him.
The insult ends up bothering Roy so much that he cannot sleep that night, and he walks by in a daze past Booker (who is eating a peanut butter and pickle sandwich) and Sheldon, who are preparing to go worm hunting. They go off into the forest and split up to find worms, but Booker ends up falling into a deep pit, unable to escape. Sheldon walks past the pit but doesn’t see him.
Meanwhile, Orson goes to Roy’s house to tell him that people shouldn’t call him names after all, but when he arrives, he finds a note Roy left stating that he left the farm because he felt he didn’t have any friends there. Wade, Bo and Lanolin arrive at that point and Bo and Lanolin don’t seem too upset because Roy always plays pranks on people, but Orson convinces them not to feel that way. All four of them decide to try to find Roy just as Sheldon runs in and announces that he can’t find Booker. They all then run out to search for Booker and Roy.
Roy is sitting in the forest sulking when he suddenly smells peanut butter and pickles in the air. He follows the scent to the pit where Booker is stuck; then he grabs a vine and lowers it into the pit. Booker climbs the vine and out of the pit just as the rest of the gang stumble across them. Roy states that he found Booker because of his nose: he smelled peanut butter and pickles, which is what Booker had for lunch. Everyone then decides that having a banana nose isn’t a bad thing after all.
[edit] Notes
