Twelfth Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) episode in release order, after "Sub Sonic" and followed by "Heads or Tails".
Robotnik has set his eyes on the last living herd of a dinosaur-like species. The Freedom Fighters help the creatures navigate through the Great Jungle while fighting off the advances of Robotnik's machines.
The episode contains examples of:
- Chekhov's Gun: The Freedom Fighters discover a species of "metal-eating" plants that instantly corrode metal into dust upon contact. The plants' harmless seeds are harvested before the episode is over; they aren't ever brought up again directly, but come the final episode of the series, we discover that Rotor's been developing metal-eating water balloon-like thrown projectiles, implied to be the result of studying the plants.
- A Day in the Limelight: The episode focuses mainly on Tails.
- I Miss Mom: When Sonic tells Tails that Baby T. wouldn't like living with the Freedom Fighters because he'd miss his mother, Tails tearfully confesses that he misses his own mother.
- Missing Mom: Baby T has to find his herd so he can reunite with his mother. Also discussed:Sonic: He wouldn't like livin' with us. He'd miss his mom.Tails: I miss my mom, too.
- Ship Tease: Bunnie flirtatiously calls Rotor "Yah lil' genius". The show's bible revealed that she had a crush on him, and, aside from them dancing together in the title sequence, this is the only remnant of that.
- Single Tear: Tails sheds a small tear when he tells Sonic that he misses his mother.
