Synopsis
At the Lookout, the pups are recycling some empty pup treat boxes in anticipation of a delivery, which is brought by Alex. However, the pup treats he was supposed to be delivering turn out to have been left at his grandfather's cafe, while he has brought the pups his grandfather's spoons. Alex quickly returns to the cafe and ends up volunteering himself and his grandpa-without Mr. Porter's knowledge-to babysit Mr. and Mrs. Wingnut's ostriches. Unexpectedly, the large birds briefly appear to be a helpful addition as they gather dishes. However, after being startled accidentally by Mr. Porter, all of the ostriches take off with one of the adults carrying Mr. Porter on its back.
Mr. Porter quickly calls Ryder, who summons the pups inside the Lookout. Marshall manages to trip on a forgotten spoon on his way into the elevator. Ryder debriefs the pups, and then chooses Marshall and Skye to assist with the rescue mission. Marshall is to use his animal-talking skills to calm the ostriches, while Skye airlifts Mr. Porter off the bird he happens to be an unwilling passenger of.
Alex, meanwhile, is in pursuit of the ostrich chicks, while all of the birds are charging randomly around town. Skye provides air surveillance, and Marshall manages to reason with a distraught Olivia, who has gotten a pot stuck on her head. Marshall blasts it off with his water cannon, thus calming the mother ostrich, but Olivia's mate Oscar ends up running inside the Adventure Bay Museum. Ryder and the pups, along with Alex and the chicks, arrive on the scene, only for the chicks to jump down an open manhole.
Skye manages to get Mr. Porter off of Oscar, who also calms down, but the father ostrich then ends up falling down the manhole as well in search of his chicks. Alex falls down as well, and despite Ryder's cautions he and Oscar end up chasing after the runaway chicks. Ryder sends Skye down after the group, who soon arrive at a cliffside exit to the sewer system that opens out over the nearby bay. Upon hearing this, Ryder summons Rubble to catch the chicks, who are rolling out-of-control in Alex's wagon.
Rubble arrives just in the nick of time, and the ostriches are soon safely back at the Porters' cafe.
