The natural world ‐‐

a feast for the senses...

Ooh, mama.

...a shimmering blue marble of wondrous sights.

Within this world, diverse realms await discovery ‐‐

deserts...

oceans...

forests ‐‐

all teeming with fascinating life‐forms,

each with their own compelling story to tell.

Well, Steve, this is what you get

when you don't spring for the fancy hotel

with the adults‐only pool.

You cheap doof.

Let us journey closer than we ever thought possible,

to live within a whisper of the noble creatures

with whom we share our planet.

We have listened to their voices before ‐‐

the roar of the lion,

the call of the eagle,

the howl of the wolf ‐‐

but now, for the first time ever,

we can truly hear them.

'Sup? 'Sup? 'Sup?

Why are these guys always at the gym

when I'm at the gym?

'Sup? 'Sup? 'Sup? 'Sup? 'Sup? 'Sup?

Don't make eye contact. Just find an elliptical.

Our animal friends

speak in the ancient tongue of mother earth.

Listen closely,

for these fascinating beings have so very much to share.

And now, beneath the booming heavens which encircle us all,

we will behold in breathless wonder

all that can be experienced...

See, the thing you got to understand about NFTs ‐‐

sorry, non‐fungible tokens ‐‐ is that they're exclusive,

and it's their exclusivity that makes them so valuable

on the Ethereum blockchain, which,

oh, man, how do I describe Ethereum?

Oh, God. Why? Why did I even ask?

I should know better than to ask anything around Rick.

Totally different from those entities.

Maybe if I just stare straight ahead,

no reaction, he'll shut up. That means that they store extra...

Ugh, what is he even saying?

Doesn't he know that I'm not actually interested?

And most of the... It was just a thing to say ‐‐

"What even is an NFT?" That's all I said.

I didn't say, "Please explain, Rick,

in detail, what an NFT is."

But I really should know better by now.

Bitcoin can be bought and sold...

Ugh, God, dear Lord, he's still going.

Please stop talking. Please stop talking.

Please stop talking.

Somebody call my phone right this minute.

...cream soda and singing the national anthem

that just sold for $150,000...

Wait. Did he just say $150,000?

Dollars of money? For a GIF?

How do I get in on this?

Whether animal or human,

we are all the main character of our own story ‐‐

from the selfless worker ant to the noble lioness

or just Kenny, who works in Accounts Payable.

What's up?

Oh, yeah, hi.

Anyway, how these stories and perspectives combine,

and occasionally collide,

forms the backbone of our collective experience.

Life on this planet is an ongoing saga

filled with a sprawling cast of characters,

some of them bold and ostentatious,

others, like the tarsier of southeast Asia,

a tad more mysterious.

Look into my eyes.

Yes, you're getting tired now.

Very ti‐‐

Okay, are you looking into my eye‐eye or my entire eyeball?

Because you have to look into the tiny eye‐hole part

for this to work.

No, no, no. You stay. I'll move.

Okay, much better.

Now, where were we?

Yes, you're getting tired now.

Very tired.

And you're not looking into my eye holes again.

I don't understand what's so hard about this.

Nature can be mesmerizing,

lyrical in its quiet beauty.

And it can also be frustrating as hell.

I mean, look at this chump, trying to open a nut.

It's like, "Hello?

You could've just sprung for a bag of cashews."

And while you're at the market, get a fun flavor,

like smoky barbecue or ooh, spicy wasabi.

Now, those are tasty.

Yes, life in the wild can be unsparing

and occasionally cruel,

even for an animal as imposing as the black bear

in the Alaskan timberlands.

Great job, guys.

That is an A‐plus for climbing class.

‐Yay! ‐ Yay!

Alright, come on back down. Your parents are waiting.

Coach Jake, did you find your shirt?

Uh, what are you talking about?

Our mom said you lost your shirt in your divorce.

Well, that's... Did Coach Tina take it?

Oh, geez.

Mom said Coach Tina wrecked your house

cause you were adult‐er‐ing

Okay, well, now hold on just a second.

Your mom shouldn't be talking about that kind of stuff.

Does Coach Tina have a bulldozer? What?

Is that why you cry in your car after class?

I hardly ever do that.

Did Coach Tina give your shirt to Coach Mike?

Coach Mike?!

Wait, wait, did you see her with Coach Mike?

That jerk? Alright, okay, fine.

Get down here. Tell me everything you heard.

Coach Jake is upset.

We leave that once‐mighty black bear

as he contemplates his place in the wild, and ‐‐

just spit‐balling here ‐‐

which dating app will help him get back out there.

Yes, the male of the species can often be loud,

emotionally volatile, and strongly opinionated,

particularly when it comes to fantasy‐football draft strategy.

However, the pressure of imposed societal roles,

both within the animal and human worlds,

can strain the fortitude and stamina

of even the strongest creature.

How long has he been sleeping? A few hours.

Should we wake him? He looks so peaceful.

Yeah, it's time. Sir?

Huh, what? Huh? Wha‐‐ Huh?

Yeah, you have to leave. This store is closing.

Aw, geez, already?

This mattress is so comfortable.

Are you buying a bed or what?

I'm on the fence.

Can I try the memory‐foam one again?

Oh, for the love of ‐‐

Dude, get out of here.

From the jungles of sub‐Saharan Africa,

we journey inland to the rainforests of Ecuador.

Here, we can get a glimpse

of how the white‐throated capuchins distract themselves

from the rigors of woodland life.

Welcome back to "Go Nuts with Nellie."

Today we're cooking up my favorite dish, braised tree nut.

It's an easy, fun recipe your family will love.

First, we open the nut.

This is a tough one.

First, we just open...

the...nut.

First, we just open...

the...nut.

Don't worry, guys.

Dinner is on the way.

Okay, guys, what the ?

Have you been injured in an on‐the‐job accident?

Yank‐and‐fall? Aah!

Or greased twig? No‐o‐o‐o!

Then you deserve to be compensated.

At Eagle, Eagle & Mingo, we get you paid for your pain.

Mother nature is a cruel mistress, so sue her.

Eagle, Eagle & Mingo specializes

in all types of injury claims...

At Eagle, Eagle & Mingo, we won't quit until you win.

Or...winter. Call now.

Eagle, Eagle, & Mingo

You guys are paid how much,

and you can't find me a nut to crack?!

You know whose nuts I'll crack if I can't get this thing open?!

I'm looking at you, Donald!

Nellie, we're on.

Welcome back to "Go Nuts with Nellie."

Up next on "People's Public Radio,"

a depressing look at wallaby working conditions ‐‐

It's monsoon season,

so this week's forecast is rain.

Try to reach another level, I'm not done yet

Be a master at my craft

Go‐o‐o‐al!

This is Buck Wild with the m‐m‐m‐m‐morning zoo.

Rain, rain, more rain.

Oh, look, it's sunny on Saturday, but then rain.

Good evening, folks. It's Barack Obama,

and you're listening to my new murder‐mystery podcast,

"Obama Drama."

Let us return, once again,

to the realm of our animal cousins,

to see what noble pursuits these majest‐‐

Do you know what?

Can I say what an absolute gas this is?

This is such a plum gig.

Don't get me started on the cash.

I'm talking fat stacks.

Dame Helen is getting paid.

Um, we are rolling.

Oh, sorry, I got distracted.

I mean, how couldn't I? Look at this footage.

And I can just call up whatever I want to see

at a moment's notice.

Treetops.

Waterfall.

Savannah.

Penguins.

Slightly different kind of penguins.

Anyway, let's commune, once again,

with one of the more curious animals

we've encountered thus far ‐‐ the tarsier.

Let's try the hypnosis again, okay?

Look into my eyes.

Eyes, plural.

If you're only looking at the right one

or the left one, this isn't going to work.

Yes, that's it.

Look into my eyes.

The entire animal kingdom surrenders

in thrall to my command.

Hear me, subjugate creatures, and obey.

Feathered creatures,

I command you to fly.

Yes, that's it.

I hold sway over all

and command you, my hypnotized servant squirrel,

to just...sit there and, like, lazily chew.

Perfect. That's exactly what I told you to do.

Clearly, my hypnosis works.

And now, for you, the viewer at home,

I command you to ‐‐

Seriously?

Alright, who didn't put their phone on vibrate?

I'm a professional hypnotist, people.

I cannot deal with this

I mean, look into my eyes.

I command you to put your phone on vibrate.

Yes.

Clearly, some animals react to the pressure of life

in the wild with unbridled intensity.

Then there are others who counteract the stresses

of survival with simple, relatable pleasures.

I, for instance, like to unwind

with a glass of Châteauneuf‐du‐Pape

and play online poker.

But that's just me.

The pursuit of serenity

extends even to the Indonesian island of Sumatra,

where a tiger seeks a respite from the chaos of the jungle.

I am here.

I am here.

I have nowhere to be but in this present moment.

I am enough.

I am loved. I am safe. I ‐‐

Oh, my God!

That was so close to my head.

I am here.

I am here.

My value is not diminished by my imperfections.

Damn, that bird flew right at me.

Good God.

From the riverbanks of Sumatra, we now soar across the globe.

And if you'll look out the left side of the aircraft,

you'll see a breathtaking expanse of scrub brush,

some rocks, and probably a snake.

It's tough to tell from this high up.

Please return your tray tables

to their upright and locked positions,

as we begin our descent into the forests of New Zealand.

Here, we'll see the animal world burst forth

with unexpected exuberance,

in this gathering of tree ants and the giant weta.

Lake Havasu, let me hear you!

Everybody, come up to the front!

This is the greatest night of my life!

Lake Havasu, are you ready?!

Let's go!

Spring bre‐e‐e‐e‐ak!

So, I'm sure the first thing you'll notice in this condo

is the breathtaking view.

Wow, really nice.

And you don't get a more open floor plan than this.

Look at this breezeway.

Yeah, it is literally all breeze.

Anyway, comes with a three‐car garage,

brand‐new appliances, and ‐‐

Just, uh ‐‐ Just checking the foundation here.

Can never be too careful.

Yeah, that's sturdy. Okay, we can always have a professional

come take a look if you'd like.

What's, uh ‐‐ What's that over there?

Oh, those must be the neighbors.

Wow, that's a ‐‐ that's a pretty large family.

They always having big, loud parties like that?

I think they're just heading out for the evening.

They're usually very quiet.

You'll hardly know they live next door.

I'm sorry, they live next door?

Yes, and you know why?

Because the schools around here are amazing.

Uh, yeah, it's a no. Sorry.

Okay, no problem. I've got another listing.

It's a charming little fixer‐upper

next to a hyena den, and it has a built‐in espresso machine.

Wait. Hyena den?

I'm trying to work with your budget, you know.

Across the animal kingdom, there exist obstacles...

...natural barriers that must be overcome.

Crossing a raging river, scaling a precipitous mountain,

or getting through a conversation

with my producer Jerry without him mentioning

his tricep routine at the gym.

Yeah, Dame Helen, I'm actually up to

to three unassisted dips now.

Oh, wonderful, Jerry. Just wonderful.

How we push through these challenges

and gain access to the world beyond

is what unifies the struggles of both human and animal,

typified in the North Pacific by this tense standoff

between a frigate bird and an albatross.

Back up, bro. There's a line.

My bad. I'm here for Keisha's birthday party.

Oh, there she go right there.

Go, Keisha. It's your birthday.

Go, Keisha. It's your birthday.

Nah, you ain't with them.

Dude, that's my girl.

Watch. Hey, Keisha!

Go, me it's my birthday.

Yo, Keisha, you know this dude?

It's Barry!

Larry who? I don't know your ass.

That's my Keisha.

She's so funny.

Can you please just let me in?

Look, man, you starting to make me feel bad for you.

So bad you're gonna let me in?

Nah. Ooh!

I'll just give her this present later.

Unless...

somebody else would like this $15 gift card

for a foot‐long sub.

Dude. I'm going.

Okay, pitter‐patter, let's get at 'er.

We're gonna try this hypnosis stuff one more time.

Now, look into my eyes.

Yes, you're getting very sleepy

and feeling very generous.

You want to whip out your phone and Venmo me 20 bucks.

That's right. Surrender your will,

and Venmo me at...

Aw, crap.

What is my Venmo username?

I can never remember.

Wow, there are a lot of hypnotist tarsiers on Venmo.

Boy, who knew?

I sense now that the psychic bond is growing fragile.

You know what? this noise.

I'll just go hold up a convenience store.

Yeah, that's what I've been reduced to,

because you don't appreciate

real talent when you see it.

I'm out. Where are my damn car keys?

Belinda? Belinda!

Look into my eyes! Where are my car keys?!

As we journey throughout the animal world,

we glimpse experiences at which we can't help but marvel.

We see the love of a parent for a child,

bravery in the face of mortal danger,

and sometimes, baboons with totally jacked‐up butts.

I mean, look at that. That's nasty.

Just friggin' nasty, man.

Now, as we peer beyond the lens of our own experience

and into the wonders of the animal kingdom,

we are humbled by the simple beauty and dignity

that swells to greet us

when nature calls.

Stay right there, Ma.

I'm gonna take the picture.

I'm too far. You can't see my face.

I look like a little dot.

You're not a dot, Ma. It's a zoom camera.

I put my face on for this. You got to come closer.

Stay where you are, Ma. I gotta focus.

There we go.

It's too far. I'm coming closer.

Ma! You were too far.

It's a zoom camera, Ma.

It's my profile pic, not yours.

Let it focus, Ma.

Stay where you are. There we are.

Ma! You're too far!

It's a zoom, Ma. You got to stay where you are.

Who takes a profile picture this far?

It doesn't matter. The camera's got a zoom.

It can zoom from real far.

You don't want me to start dating, that's why.

What's that got to do with anything?

Look, stay where you are. Don't move. Perfect.

F‐stop, shutter speed, white balance.

Ah, dang, it ran out of batteries.

Earth.

Beautiful...

awe‐inspiring...

welcoming...

a home for us

and countless other beings.

And beyond the simple eloquence of nature ‐‐

stately pines,

commanding waves,

whispering, arid winds ‐‐

there are other voices,

joining in unison or calling out

to proclaim greater truths.

The natural world possesses a wisdom

that transcends human intelligence.

Did the Academy Award‐winning Helen Mirren

just say on national TV that we're smarter than humans?

Huh, I guess she did, yeah.

I tell you what, these A‐list actors ‐‐

all a little cuckoo if you ask me.

An ancient and hard‐won foresight

developed over generations

by the noble creatures who roam every corner of the globe.

Open your mind and your ears,

and our brilliant animal compatriots

will reveal the depths of their universal knowledge.

Teach us, wise ones. Teach us.

Ugh, I think a piece of my brain came out.

Commune once again with these complex creatures,

and gasp in awe at the very secrets of Earth herself

all revealed...

Our whirlwind tour of the natural world

has already revealed the inner lives of our animal neighbors

with startling clarity.

We've seen amazing parallels between their world and ours...

...a shared continuum of relationships,

and emotions, and ‐‐

and yelling.

Lots of yelling.

Ma! You're too far!

It's a zoom, Ma. You got to stay where you are.

Yeah, alright, alright, very good.

Thank you. We all get excited.

Indeed, what of the powerful, elemental spark of passion?

Yes, our wild friends share this, too,

as we see in a visit with southern fur seals

of the subantarctic islands.

Ah, a night at the opera. Delightful.

I heard Carpaccio warming up.

Splendid. A true artist.

It's starting.

A‐A‐Ave Mari‐i‐i‐a

Ye‐e‐e‐ah!

I love this so‐o‐o‐ng!

Who in the world is that?

It's that brute wearing flip‐flops.

The one we saw doing Jaegerbombs in the lobby bar.

Keep going! Ye‐e‐e‐ah!

This ro‐o‐cks! Shh!

I love classical music!

Pipe down, you hooligan.

This is fine art, sir. Control yourself.

I ca‐a‐n't! I lo‐o‐ve it!

I love concertos!

Chest bump!

Ouf, my monocle.

I love it all, baby!

It's just so freaking beautifu‐u‐u‐l!

Actually, this brute's enthusiasm is quite infectious.

Agreed.

Opera‐a‐a‐a‐a!

Opera‐a‐a‐a‐a‐a!

Opera!

Yeah!

The natural world follows a set of rules,

conventions laid out by millions of years of evolution.

But even in a dominion shaped by seasons, birth cycles,

and other structures, mysteries abound.

How do bears know when to hibernate?

How do birds change direction en masse?

How does my producer Jerry still not know

that I like oat milk in my lattes?

Sorry.

Ick, soy.

And, Jerry, did the barista actually write

"Dame Helen Mirren" on this cup?

Y‐You just had to show off, didn't you?

Sorry. I‐I thought I could score a free croissant.

Anyway, nature teems not only with life

but with a million compelling, nigh unanswerable questions...

Wait a minute.

I just figured out why they called that show "Friends."

It's because it's the name of all the characters.

Rachel Friends. Joey Friends.

Phoebe Friends. They're all siblings.

I finally get it.

Every creature fulfills a role.

Each animal has a job, as it were ‐‐

some activity that lends them an air of duty,

a sense of purpose, and perhaps also gives them

a misplaced sense of their own abilities.

Case in point ‐‐ the flitting ditch jewel dragonfly,

in the trees of southeast Asia.

Okay, let's shoot this scene.

Dave, remember, everyone thinks your character

got eaten by a bullfrog, but now, we reveal you're alive,

so you swoop in, it's nice and heroic,

and you say your line.

I think I'll come in from the right.

No. We went over this. You enter from the left.

That's what I said, from your right.

No, from your left.

Let's go over blocking again.

Let's do the "action."

Action.

Thought I'd drop in from the left

and pay you a visit. Cut.

Don't say "from the left."

Thought I'd drop in and pay you a visit

from over there. Cut.

Let's just get it in the wide.

Thought I'd just drop in and pay you a visit.

How did I get here? Maybe I came from that way.

Maybe I came from that way.

Maybe I Cut, cut.

Just take it from after you land.

And...

say the line.

The line.

Cut.

For animals and humans alike, existence ‐‐

mere survival ‐‐ is challenging enough.

But once emotions get involved, things become truly messy.

And as awkward as social pairings may become,

it can be quite difficult to look away,

as in the delicate mating dance of the Indian Peacock.

Next week, on "The Bachelor,"

a one‐on‐one date that you'll have to see to believe...

Emma K. is, um, yeah.

She's just kind of amazing.

I literally didn't know I would fall so hard so quickly.

It's crazy.

We were literally having a great time.

I was literally just showing her my dance.

She seemed to like it. I wasn't trying too hard.

If anything, I was being subtle, you know?

And then before I know it, she's just literally gone.

I literally don't know if I can do this anymore.

I'm sorry. I can't do this.

Which ‐‐ Which way is ‐‐

How do I get out of ‐‐

Why is everything so confusing?

I just didn't realize

this process would be so hard.

I'm not a jealous person, but this is hard.

I‐I don't know if I can do this anymore.

Does Emma K. stick around?

What made Emma K. walk off set?

What made Garrison walk off set?

And what about Emma M.?

I also don't know if I can do this anymore.

All of that, and more, next week

on "The Bachelor."

Mr. Kong. Uh, Mr. Kong, over here.

Uh, Mr. Kong, Mr. Kong. Uh, over here, Mr. Kong.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, can I help you guys?

Uh, Mr. Kong, tell us about your latest movie.

What was it like working with Godzilla?

Not again.

Sorry. You have the wrong guy.

I get mistaken for him all the time.

My name is Glen. I am not an actor.

Is it true you do all your own stunts?

Are you thinking of branching out into less‐serious roles?

Guys, again, I am not him. I'm a radiologist.

I'm just grabbing some bagels to bring into work.

Can you do the chest‐bump thing? Maybe climb a building?

Swat at some airplanes for us? Huh?

I got to start wearing

a big hat and some glasses.

Ours is a richly diverse world,

comprised of countless creatures,

each with their own animating principle,

a purpose, a calling,

a reason for being.

Some animals exist as compatriots,

fellow travelers providing emotional support,

while others serve as rivals, challenging us to do better.

Then there are children, who remind us of the time

we had a little too much sangria with dinner,

and we got a bit frisky.

As the black skimmer seabird of South America

knows full well,

these little ones can demand plenty of attention.

Mom's home. Mom, hey, Mom.

Mom, today I took my T. rex toy to school a‐and...

Sorry, Allison, yeah, yes, I just got home.

No, no, now's a fine time.

Honey, can you just ‐‐

what do we do when Mommy's ear buds are in?

Sorry. No, no, not you.

Yes, I'm so sure this family is going to close.

They really seemed to ‐‐

...and, um, outside on my way home from school,

I saw ‐‐ guess who I saw walking.

Ally. You know my babysitter, Ally?

Ally, who babysits for me? What's on your face?

There's schmutz all over your face. Come here.

No, Allison, I'm sorry. Not you.

She was walking outside and I waved and said hi.

And ‐‐ And ‐‐ And ‐‐ Exactly.

Asking is $835,000, but I know their offer

will be the highest we've seen so far.

Jeffrey, sweetie, give Mommy a moment.

We can have pizza if you wait to ask me

when I'm off the phone. Okay, I'll wait till you get off the phone

to ask you if we can have pizza 'cause ‐‐

'cause you're on your phone right now.

You're on the phone right now.

I'll wait till you're off the phone.

Hey, we're gonna have pizza!

The parent child relationship is integral

to sustaining life on Earth,

and, therefore, asserts itself everywhere,

usually on a cross‐country flight

as you're just trying to get some friggin' shut‐eye.

From the forest floor of Peru, we journey to North America,

to see the familial dynamic play out

with the dignified brown bear.

Okay, kids, watch and learn.

Fishing is all about poise, patience.

You can't just freak out and chase

after the first ‐‐ fish!

Oh, there it is. Grab it!

Don't freak out! Get the fish!

Don't splash!

You're splashing, Dad.

Get it, get it, get it, get it!

Get the fish! Come on! Get back here!

Dad, there's other fish behind you.

I want to grab and eat you!

Kids, don't back down. He's laughing at us!

Dad, there are dozens of fish in the river.

But this one thinks he's smarter than your old man.

Right now, I wouldn't disagree with him.

Fish. Fish. Get it. Get it.

Dad, Dad, he's gone.

Why does this happen every time we fish?!

The pressures of raising offspring,

both human and animal,

can present existential questions.

How do I prepare my children for an unfair world?

What kind of society will they inherit?

Are they seriously going to keep making "Minions" movies?

And why haven't I been asked to do a voice

for one of those things?

I mean, I could totally do it.

Bleep‐blorp, bleep‐blorp.

See?

Super easy. Come on.

Call me.

But these are not the only persistent vexations

in this untamed world.

Wait a minute.

Has there ever been a rabbit magician

who pulled a person out of a hat?

Whoa. That'd be pretty cool.

You'd need a pretty big hat.

Or a pretty small person.

The realm of the animals,

in its sprawling, boundless wonder,

can impart a sense of freedom...

but also a feeling of profound isolation.

It's enough to make one question,

"Am I the only monkey on this rock?"

I guess, in this instance, yeah,

this is literally the only monkey on this rock.

Sorry, I‐I was trying to be poetic,

and got distracted by this sad fellow.

Bumming me out. Change this, please.

Ah, that's the stuff.

Anyway, listlessness, such a human trait,

can plague our animal friends, too.

And like us, all they need to rouse themselves

from this torpor is a bit of sage guidance.

Forget it. I can't train ya.

You're a bum who can't jump.

Alright, again.

Again.

Higher. Where's the style?

Shimmy the tail. Nice, nice.

But to win the championship, you got to be ready.

Yeah, I'm ready. I'm ready.

Yeah, you're ready to quit being a nobody from the prairie.

Yeah, yeah. Heck yeah.

But are you ready to bleed and sweat and hurt for it?

To not eat sugar for six years?

Yeah‐hah! Fantastic.

Now all's we gotta do is find out if there's such a thing

as a jumping‐up‐and‐down championship.

If there is, you're getting the gold, baby.

Yeah!

Carl!

Yes?

Carl!

Are you guy saying "Carl" or "Charles"?

Because this is the third time this week,

and I keep telling you my name is ‐‐

Carl! Ugh, no.

That's what I'm trying to tell you.

I'm ‐‐ Carl!

Are you guys trying to get me to move?

Is that it?

Well, good luck.

Carl!

Our journey now whisks us around the globe

to the jungles of China.

Here, we discover that unfocused aggression

can be wielded by any species,

and generally speaking, by the males.

I'm so sorry, fellas. I call 'em as I see 'em.

And now for

"The Trials & Tribulations of Testosterone Tony."

You want to know about me?

Okay. I'm Tony.

And, sure, I can be a bit of a hothead.

I'm a passionate guy. Tony!

I enjoy exercise, Internet comment sections,

and tossing people who bother me out of trees.

What did you say about my shirt, bro?

I said I liked it. Wrong answer.

Wait, no, no, no, come on, man.

No‐o‐o‐o‐o!

Why did you step on my new kicks, bro?

You're not wearing shoes.

Hey, no one reasons with Tony.

You awakened the beast.

I just said you dropped your phone. Aah!

Tony doesn't need your help, alright?

Tony doesn't need anyone.

But I guess, you know, you throw enough people out of trees,

and suddenly Tony is all alone.

This is why you're in therapy, Tony.

This is where the healing begins.

What are you...? Don't you...hug Tony.

I'm just holding you.

You need to accept the real Tony.

Tony is full of hurt.

Tony, let it ‐‐ Tony?

Tony, what are you doing? Tony?

Tony, no‐o‐o‐o‐o‐o‐o‐o‐o!

Don't you ever try to fix Tony.

Time and again, our animal friends

and their travails on our shared Earth

reveal a universal truth ‐‐

we all tread our own path.

And so often, this is a journey marked not by a straight line,

but etched in a series of switchbacks, diversions,

and errant sidesteps.

Wait a minute.

What if the Taylor Swift song "Coney Island"

isn't about Jake Gyllenhaal or Harry Styles?

What if it's about me?

Nah, that seems unlikely.

I'm a rabbit who she's never met.

Our communion with the natural world now draws to a close,

another selection of stolen glances

toward our brethren in the wild.

Where will their stories take them next?

What will they do once our gaze drifts away?

And, actually, while we're talking about it,

did we have those animals' permission?

I mean, we just basically barged into their homes with cameras.

Did they sign waivers?

Mm, I suppose those are questions

for our legal department.

Still, the parallels between the animal world

and ours are striking.

And we have little choice but to once again peek

at the wonders that abound

when nature calls.

This year, instead of sipping fruity drinks

out of fancy straws on some beach somewhere,

head someplace different,

someplace beautiful,

someplace we like to call...

Bring your family. Bring your friends.

Just don't forget to bring your coat.

Matter of fact, bring all your coats.

All of them.

And take in all the natural beauty this place has to offer.

Don't believe me?

Then take it from our locals, like this fella.

If you enjoy nightlife, this place is great for you

because nights are all we get.

Seriously, I haven't seen the sun in eight weeks.

And also, this fella.

Come for a little R&R, leave with a cool accent.

#sweg.

So this travel season,

do something different for Pete's sake,

and head to Way Friggin' Up North There Now, okay?

We could really use the company.

We're lonely.
