The Searchers are exploring a forest when they come across a cowardly Ducken, who makes a living hiding from the Mock troops and Captain Ebony. Mocchi encourages Ducken to be strong, and the two bond.
But when the Searchers are captured by the Mocks, will Ducken have the courage to defend his new friends?
This episode contains examples of:
- Cowardly Lion: Ducken is a self-proclaimed coward, but he saves everybody at the end.
- Paper-Thin Disguise: Mocchi tries to infiltrate the Mocks' camp by wearing a hollowed-out tree with a crudely-carved face. Notably, the Mocks aren't fooled, and Genki has to warn Mocchi to run.
- When Trees Attack: The Mocks invoke this by pretending to be trees, which isn't all that hard.
