We open up on the team finding out that the mission is to see Lewis and Clark and heads out. Upon arriving, the team hears people arguing and finds Lewis talking to an inattentive Clark about how he hasn't been upholding his part of the work and asks him where he's been going off too at night instead of helping him. Clark is annoyed, and in a fashion similar to an old married couple, breaks up his partnership with Lewis and leaves. Lewis is heartbroken and is comforted by Larry while Otto and Tuddrussel decide to follow Clark. Lewis then invites an annoyed Larry to explore with him.
Otto and Tuddrussel have been looking for Clark for a day when they suddenly find a trail of litter that leads to his campsite. He is living a lazy life, and invites Otto and Tuddrussel to explore with him. While both teams explore, Larry is enjoying his exploration with Lewis, who is excellent at reading maps. Otto and Tuddrussel are miserable with Clark, who has no idea where he is going. Lewis has brought plenty of provisions for his team and makes friends with animals, while Clark’s team has no food or shelter and angers a bear.
Eventually, Clark’s team is hungry and exhausted. Otto and Tuddrussel frustrate Clark, and his exclamation is heard by Lewis, who is nearby. Lewis coldly asks how Clark has been, and Clark is forced to admit that he needs Lewis. Lewis forgives Clark, and suddenly Larry appears, wanting to show a new flower to Lewis. Clark becomes jealous and punches Larry, taking Lewis away. Otto and Tuddrussel praise Larry for his “brilliant plan” to make Clark jealous to get him back with Lewis, which makes Larry very confused as he tries to recollect what had exactly happened.

- Operation: Jealousy: The plan that Otto and Tuddrussel think Larry came up with to get Clark to come back to Lewis. Larry doesn't understand what they mean.
