The trials and tribulations of a group of feathered misfits whose one aim is to loot the Bird Munchies factory.

START EPISODE #3

A short time later.

"Is everyone back. Good."

"What happened, we couldn’t move it."

"Well, we lifted our corner. It was the corellas that let us down."

"Rubbish you didn’t move it. You couldn’t lift a stray feather off a nest. I’ve seen butterflys that flapped harder than y..."

"Cool it, ther’s no point in fighting amongst ourselves. The humans outsmarted us."

"Eh!"

"They’ve obviously bolted the pallets to the floor."

"The fiends. What happened to trust?"

"But how can they be smarter than us? We’re birds, they’re only humans."

"Yeah Tandar. Have you looked at them up close? They certainly don’t look that clever."

"Hah, nor does Rosso."

"I heard that featherhead. You ought to talk. If I had a hea..."

"Okay cool it you two. Rosso no-ones having a go at you. If..."

"What about the trucks?"

"Trucks? What trucks? What are you on about Kaegi?"

The trucks that come for the bird munchies. They take the pallets away. How do they get them off the floor?"

"Boltcutters!"

"Well boltcutters to you too. I ask a sensible question and..."

No, no, now listen closely Kaegi, see if you can grasp this. THEY USE BOLTCUTTERS TO CUT THE BOLTS."

"Well I’ll be. Hey, that’s a coincidence isn’t it."

"What is?"

"Well, that the things for cutting bolts are called boltcutters. You’d think..."

"Oh for crying out loud Kaegi."

"Wait on,I’ve got it! Why don’t we do that?"

"Do what?"

"Use boltcutters"

"Oh you have a boltcutters have you?"

"Well no, but I..."

"So where would we get one? And even if we did how would we use it."

"There's bound to be a switch."

"Or a button."

"That’s true Zingo. It is Tandar. Look at all those machines in the factory. They all work with buttons or switches. What do you think Rosso?"

"Why is it that whenever I listen to you lot I get a sinking feeling?"

"Probably because your branch is breaking."

"Be serious. You’re.....ayieeee"

"Serves him right. I tried to tell him. Looks like he’s landed on his head."

"That’s all right then. No harm done. Well Tandar, what do you think."

"I think perhaps we should try something else. We’ll meet again in a week. And I want some ideas. This is serious. If we can’t find a way of getting some of those munchies we’ll starve."

"Hey they’re putting out some more Tandar."

"Right, meeting terminated. Let’s eat."
