It's Wizzy and Wigg, armed with knowledge of ecosystems, who finally prove that none can exist without the others -when they work together, can't be beat, just like the ZP! CAMP WORM - When Zeeter and Bula scoff at the big importance of tiny earthworms to the ecosystem, Multo sends them to Camp Worm. The flowers, beetles and bees have all walked off the job, each claiming they are the most important cog in the honey production wheel! Can the Zula Patrol settle things? They'll have to agree first! Zeeter, Bula and Multo take different sides in this standoff. Unfortunately, Gorga swallows the mix, sending our micro-heroes on a journey to the center of Gorga, learning more about chemical reactions, and even using one to help them get out!ĬHOOSING SIDES - The Zula Patrol is worried - their shipment of honey never arrived and oatmeal just isn't the same without it. JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF GORGA - To help explain chemical reactions, Multo uses the Sizerizer to shrink Bula and Zeeter down to atomic size - but before they can get back to normal, they must escape from a refrigerator ice tray, bacteria in a container of spoiled milk, and a bowl of sticky cake mix. Fortunately, in the end, the ZPers convince the homesick elements to return to the Keeper of the Elements and everyone is happy. But the runaways transform themselves into a giant rubber band which sling-shots Truder far into space. The Zula Patrol steps in to track them down. However, his plan goes awry and he accidentally releases several gremlin-like elements from their container. The plan: use elements to create tools needed to take over the universe. THE MISSING ELEMENTS - While Wizzy and Wigg learn about elements, the building blocks of matter, Dark Truder puts his latest devious scheme into action. THE ZULA PATROL provides a dynamic, focused and fun learning experience for children, while encouraging them to think innovatively and approach problems evenhandedly. The group, always on the lookout for the villain Dark Truder & his toupee-wearing sidekick Traxie, includes: Bula, the fearless captain and intrepid explorer his co-pilot Zeeter, a wild space jockey in her own right Multo, an intergalactic absent-minded professor Gorga, a loyal puppy-sized pet with amazing tranformative abilities, and Wizzy & Wigg, a cosmic pair of flying dictionaries.
