'''Rusty To The Rescue'''

Cowardly Rusty has to face his fears in order to rescue Alex, a boy who's stuck at the top of a jungle gym due to a broken ladder rung.

!! "Rusty To The Rescue" includes the following tropes:
* FaceYourFears: Rusty has to confront his fear of... possibly heights (it's not made very clear) in order to fix a broken rung on a jungle gym ladder.
* FictionalDocument: "10 Great Ways To Build A Treehouse", which Manny reads to the tools after they get back from the repair and discover that they've missed the entirety of ''[[ShowWithinAShow The Wing And Nut Show]]''.
* TheFreelanceShameSquad: When Mr. Lopart gets his feet tangled in a hose and falls, Julieta and Nelson appear on scooters and laugh at him.
* GardenHoseSquirtSurprise: Mr. Lopart inadvertently does this to ''himself'' when the hose he was trying to use gets caught in his shop door.
* {{Hammerspace}}: At the end of her ShowWithinAShow, Nut produces a bush and dustpan from nowhere.
* InvisibleAnatomy: This is how Nut holds the above-mentioned brush and dustpan.
* ShowWithinAShow: ''The Wing And Nut Show'', which stars a couple of bolts and nuts (as in, two entities made of one bolt and one nut each) named Wing and Nut, makes its debut.
