Episode Summary

Tag playing with his train.
Start
The clubhouse is empty. The Squirrels are outside playing copy the king.
Set-Up
Tag is the king and the other Squirrels have to copy everything he does. They copy him, even when he trips over. He has actually hurt himself so the Squirrels help him and fetch Duggee. Duggee checks Tag over and reassures them that he will be ok. Duggee pulls out his first aid kit, he has his First Aid Badge.
Story
Duggee bandages up Tag’s knee and he feels better. The Squirrels all want a go so they grab some more bandages from the first aid kit and get to work. Meanwhile, Enid is playing with a ball of wool at Duggee’s feet. They get carried away and bandage him up too well. Enid spots the huge Tag ball and bats him away down a hill. Duggee and the other Squirrels give chase. He eventually comes to a rest at the bottom of a hill and Duggee has to push him back to the top. Exhausted, Duggee leans on the Tag ball and he starts to roll away again. This time the bandages unravel and Tag is deposited on the ground outside the clubhouse. He’s had a great time.
Duggee has cut his finger. The Squirrel work as a team to perform first aid and apply a plaster.
