Synopsis
Ryder and the pups are enjoying a day at the beach when their tennis ball becomes stuck on top of a beach shack. Fortunately, it gets knocked back down to them when Travelin' Travis arrives on Adventure Bay's beach. As it turns out, Travis has once again taken a wrong turn on his way to "Big Bill Island." Ryder and the pups suggest that Travis ask Cap'n Turbot for directions, and after consulting with the sailor Skye volunteers to fly out with Travis to help him locate Big Bill Island.
As the pair are out flying, Travis opens up a jar of squid jerky gifted to him by Cap'n Turbot. Unfortunately, when he tries to throw a piece to a hungry gull, it ends up on top of his balloon, where the bird pokes a hole in the craft and forces Skye to latch onto it. Even worse, Travis' inept attempts at steering drag the pair off course, and he ends up falling out of the balloon's gondola and hanging from his balloon's anchor. At Skye's suggestion, Travis calls Ryder, who summons the rest of the PAW Patrol to the Air Patroller.
Marshall trips on a bucket of sand on his way aboard the craft, and the patrol head out for Big Bill Island. Ryder selects Rubble to help Travis get back aboard the gondola, while Rocky is tasked with repairing the leaking balloon. Meanwhile, Travis jumps down on a rock he believes to be Big Bill Island and encounters a large pelican. He comes to believe that the animal is none other than Big Bill Island's namesake and ends up flying atop the bird's back.
Ryder and the others arrive at that moment, and Rocky fixes the balloon while Rubble manages to get Travis off the pelican's back. However, the pelican ends up in possession of Travis' jar of squid jerky, which Ryder fears could injure the bird. Ryder then summons Marshall to talk to the bird so that Rocky can retrieve the jar, which he manages after being briefly trapped inside the creature's bill. Travis, fully satisfied that he's found both Big Bill Island and Big Bill, begins filming his interview with the giant pelican.
