Are you ready for one last mission? I was testing my desert game and I'm missing this. "Sturt's Desert Pea?" Plum, one thing you should know about earthlings is we don't eat peas for dessert. Not a "dessert" pea, Brad. A "desert" pea. Oh. Oh, desert! As in where we're standing. Got it. Actually, as you can see, I have a picture of the plant, but I can't find a picture of its roots anywhere. This book, Electrifying Secrets of the Desert Pea? No pictures. So, can you get me one? A photograph? Sure. Absolute-o-rama. Over and out. So, where would we find a desert pea? There! Come on... Stop! We don't have to kill it. She just wants a photograph. Let's dig around it and then put the dirt back. But we don't have a shovel. Thanks, Plink. Okay, one scoop... Two scoops... (panting) 287 scoops... Owie. That is one deep root. Step aside, sister. I'll take it from here. Sheesh louise. Why does a plant need such a long root anyhow? Unless it's actually an underground spycam operated by an evil doctor guy who wants to mind-control all the ants. Or maybe... See how the ground is darker at the bottom? That's because it's wetter. So maybe it needs an extra long root in order to reach down and get water. There's hardly any rain here, remember? That makes sense. You know, that root is almost as long as you. (camera snaps) Nice. Calling Plum. Did you get it? We got the picture. Yahoo! It's longer than I thought. So listen, the other kids wanted to sleep out tonight, so I'm sending a bubble to take you to the campsite. Watch for it. Bye. Hurry. We have to get the dirt back or the plant will die. I'm on it. Go, go, go, go! Hurry. Fantastic job in the desert, guys. You found the lake, you found the desert pea, you found the dormant shrimp, you took a million photographs-- well, 47-- so thank you, thank you. Thank you for letting us camp out tonight. This place is just awesome. Awesome and cold. I know, right? It was 110 during the day and now it's just... (shivers) 50 degrees? Holy moly. You need one of these. (cheering) (laughs) I'll send your bubbles first thing in the morning. Good night! Good night. No one snores, right? Sleep tight.
