Synopsis
Ryder and the pups, in the new PAW Patroller, are helping Carlos and Tracker locate and photograph animals in the jungle. Meanwhile, a pair of monkeys get into a fight over some honey, only to cause a beehive to fall and break open. The PAW Patrol, Tracker, and Carlos soon detect a small herd of elephants, which turn out to be their old friend Snort and his family. Unfortunately, as they're trying to get a closer look and a photograph of the herd, the queen bee from the broken hive scares the elephants away.
The pups and boys soon determine that the queen bee is looking for a new hive and discover the broken one, and then see the queen bee leading the other bees towards the watering hole vacated by the elephants. Carlos, realizing that the bees' presence there would prevent the elephants from returning, alerts Ryder. He summons the pups to the PAW Patroller, though its still active cloaking feature confuses Marshall and leads to him tripping on a coconut. Ryder debriefs the pups, and tasks Ryder with building a beebox to serve as a new home for the bees while Skye is sent to search for the missing elephants from the air.
With assistance from Carlos and Tracker, Rocky sets about building the beebox from some old crates and move a portion of the old hive inside in order to lure the bees into their new home. Skye locates the still running elephant herd, and the other pups-pursuing in the PAW Patroller-soon determine that they're heading for the monkey temple. After collecting Carlos, Rocky, and Tracker, Ryder sends Tracker and Chase into the temple to help the elephants make their way out. Unfortunately, the elephants set off a revolving wall and disappear from view, though the PAW Patroller's new features allow them to locate both the elephants and the mechanism to rotate the wall so Tracker and Chase can reach them.
The pups and elephants end up falling down a hidden passageway and into a room with no apparent exits. However, Rocky is able to use the PAW Patroller's scanners to identify and escape passage. However, the elephants mistake a fake banana serving as a rope handle for a real one and cause a collapse that causes the temple to begin rumbling ominously and blocks the exit. Ryder calls on Rubble and Marshall to clear the debris and make a water slide. This allows the PAW Patrol to tow a large rock slab with the elephants on top of it back up to the surface. The elephants then make their way back to their watering hole.
