Episode Recap

This episode stars out with Annie outside of the Rocket room with June and Quincy blowing bubbles! Annie introduces herself and says that Leo is about to give her flying lessons! Annie runs into Rocket to the waiting Leo and they quickly get started with the lesson. Leo allows Annie to sit in his chair for her flying lesson! Leo quickly starts out by teaching Annie how to fly Rocket up down over obstacles by reaching her arms up and bringing them back down. Leo then moves on to the squeeze trick, used to get Rocket through a small space. To do this Annie must cross her arms and pat her shoulders to the beat. Annie does it with ease, and Leo moves on to the hardest trick of all; The loop-the-loop maneuver! Annie can do this by clapping her hands in a circle to the beat! Annie gives it a try and does it on her first attempt! It is not long after that when Leo and Annie are called upon by Quincy!



Leo and Annie come out of Rocket to greet June and Quincy. Quincy explains that him and June are combining their bubbles to make super bubbles! Annie is amazed and runs off to go get her camera to take a picture of the super bubbles. While Annie is gone, Leo joins the team bubble-blowers and helps create a HUGE bubble! They all blow one very large bubble, and after that, they realize that the bubble it too big! Leo, June, and Quincy are stuck inside the bubble and it's floating away in the super bubble! Annie returns and is in a panic! Once Annie knows what is going on, Annie realizes that she must fly Rocket all by herself to rescue the rest of the team! Annie runs to Rocket and all by herself she is able to perform...



BLAST OFF!



Annie flies high in the sky, right behind the super bubbles! Annie takes a few moments to get used to flying but is a very quick learner. Annie is ready to chase down the super bubbles, but she cannot find them! Rocket lowers his look-and-listen scope to find the super bubbles. After looking over several area, Annie and Rocket find the super bubbles way over at the French Alps! Annie flies as fast as she can to the French Alps. Once she gets there, she cannot find them! She makes up a rescue song to find them, and the team responds to the rescue song and Annie meets right up with the super bubbles, and the team inside them. Leo tells Annie that the bubbles are flying over several mountains of the Alps, and she will have to go up and down over the mountains just like them! Annie thinks for a moment but then remembers that Leo told her how to fly up and down over something; by reaching up high, and then down low again! Annie follows the bubbles over the Alps by using the up-down trick. It is successful! Annie is making it over several of the mountains of the Alps. After about six mountains, Annie has made it over all of the mountains, but has lost sight of the super bubbles!



Annie tries to catch up with the super bubbles but she cannot. She pauses and sings the rescue song again, to immediately hear the rest of the team respond! She finds the team floating away into the Verdun Gorge. Annie takes one look at the Gorge and knows that it too tight for Rocket to get through. Leo shouts to Annie to just remember what he taught her, and Annie remembers about the squeeze trick that she learned! She remembers that to do the trick she must cross her arms and pat her shoulders to the beat! Annie gives it a try and it works! Rocket squeezes as small as he can and squeeze right through the gorge, right behind the super bubbles! It worked! Now that they are right behind the super bubbles again, Annie notices that the super bubbles are taking a very difficult path! They are going under a bridge, over a castle, and through a tunnel! It makes sense to Annie that now she will have to use the Squeeze trick and the up-down trick all at once! Annie takes a deep breath then chases after the super bubbles. She uses all of the tricks she knows and squeezes through the bridge, flies up and down over the castle, and squeezes through the tunnel! Annie follows the super bubbles through the tunnel all the way to more obstacles! She uses the up-down trick to make it over some rocks and squeezes right through another rock as well! Then right after that she flies up and down over two more towers! Annie cheers at her achievement and Rocket congratulates her on her flying!



Annie sings her rescue song to find the team in the super bubbles floating up in to the clouds! Annie chases them high in the sky, only to find the team in the super bubbles doing loop-ti-loops in the sky! Annie is worried for a second, but then remembers the "loop-ti-loop maneuver". Annie does the trick by clapping her hands in a circle to the beat. Annie is successful and follows the super bubbles around all the looks and around many circles, only to find herself right next to the super bubbles! She caught up with them! Rocket lowers a bubble catcher and pulls the super bubbles and the team inside. Once inside, Annie pops the large bubble. The team thanks Annie for all that she has done and congratulates her on her expert flying. Leo tells Annie how proud he his. Aircraft Ace Annie replies with a witty "You can fly with me any time!"
