The first episode on this tape is JUNGLE GIRL. When the three moons line up it starts making all the animals, including the ape-man Stink, start going crazy. Soon, they start migrating towards the edge of a cliff, where an ocean probably used to be. The alignment of the moon triggers this behavior in them. The Porters have to figure out how to save their hairy friend and also manage to save a lot of the dinosaurs, including Scarface.
SHUNG THE TERRIBLE introduces this new series' version of the Sleestak...and they are disappointing. Rather than the creepy lizard/insect creatures that gave us nightmares as children, these are dressed like warriors, have big reptile heads and talk. In fact, Shung, the leader of them, lives in some ancient ruins and only has two others with him, who look for food. They capture Stink for a meal and the porters have to save him before he becomes dinner. I think this is the worst episode of the series, as it's such a let-down with the Sleestak. Where is Enoch when you need him?
