‐ I still don't understand how this happened.

[ chuckles ]

‐ Dolphin dive! One, two...

[ small creatures screaming ]

‐ Now what we really need is to slather some kind of gross sticky goo

all over this dam. You know, to, uh, seal it in.

‐ Twig'd be great for slathering. ‐ No! I would not!

I am done with the gosh‐darn damming!

‐ Aw, don't say that. ‐ You're doing such a great job, bro.

‐ Plus, we've to do this right.

If the ground gets too wet, the under‐beasts will come.

‐ Can't someone else take care of it?

‐ But your body is the perfect shape, you're rigid, you're durable...

‐ Without you, we couldn't have put that dam together!

‐ That's the thing!

You guys are using me, not appreciating me!

Hey, don't worry, little guy, we'll find another use for you.

‐ Hey, guys, I found this gross goo seeping up from the ground.

Twig, get over here, so I can touch it with you.

‐ See? Nothing to worry about.

‐ Wow! You guys really don't understand me at all, do you?

If you could live in my bark for a day, then you'd see!

‐ Twig, I'm sorry we're upsetting you so much.

I guess we don't really get what it's like to be Twig.

Oh! Wait, wait, wait, wait! What if we're all Twig?

Do we like literally strip off his bark and wear it?

Looking like Twig isn't enough, guys. We must practice being Twig!

Hello, fellows, it is I, Twig.

Boy, I sure do love touching yucky stuff!

And, um, damming things?

‐ That doesn't sound like me.

‐ That doesn't look safe to consume, Berry.

Maybe you should take that out of your mouth, Berry.

Don't eat other berries, that's cannibalism, Berry.

You're my brother, you should know me best!

‐ We're gonna study Twig all day, so that we can understand him better!

Oops, uh, sorry, Twig probably wouldn't do that.

He'd probably like, uh, cry?

‐ Guys, you seriously don't have to do this.

I get what you're trying to do,

but I'm not sure it'll help me feel appreciated.

And in order to under...

‐ Are you Twig or am I Twig? 'Cause I can't tell.

‐ But, Twig, it will help!

If we understand you, we'll understand how to make you feel better!

Or we'll understand ourselves

because we'll all be Twig? Hmm.

‐ Ugh! Fine, but if we're gonna do this, we're gonna do it right!

I'll show you guys what it really means to be Twig!

‐ But I'm Leaf.

I need something with which to touch it.

Twig, do you like that?

‐ Surprisingly, no. No, I did not.

‐ Huh?

Twig! We're so sorry!

‐ We'll never use you as a tool again! ‐ Honestly and truly!

‐ I felt so used being picked up like that.

‐ I felt like I wanted approval so badly

that I put up with it, but I didn't like that.

[ Leaf chuckles ]

‐ Why are you guys talking like Twig? ‐ Because that's how we really felt.

‐ Also, being like Twig is what we've been doing all day.

How's about we, uh, go relax in your mud puddle for a while?
