In Fraggle Rock season 1 episode 17, titled "Marooned", the Fraggles find themselves stranded on a small island in the middle of a pond. The story begins as Gobo, Wembley, Mokey, Boober, and Red are out exploring when they suddenly find themselves swept away by a strong current and washed up on the shore of a tiny island. At first, they are excited about their adventure, but as the reality of their situation sets in, they begin to worry about how they will find a way back to the safety of Fraggle Rock.
While the other Fraggles are busy trying to figure out a way off the island, Boober decides that he is content to stay right where he is. He believes that he is safe on the island and that leaving it would be too risky. However, as time wears on and the other Fraggles struggle to survive, Boober begins to realize that he may have made a mistake in his decision to stay put.
As the days pass, the Fraggles face a number of challenges, including finding food and water, building shelter, and staying safe from the many dangers that lurk on the island. They also begin to bond in new ways, as they work together to overcome their obstacles and keep their spirits up.
Meanwhile, back in Fraggle Rock, the other Fraggles have launched a search party to try to find their missing friends.

Along the way, they encounter a number of interesting characters, including a tribe of Gorgs and a band of Doozers, who each provide clues as to the whereabouts of the missing Fraggles.
As the search party grows increasingly frustrated and exhausted, they begin to fear that their friends may be lost forever. But just when all hope seems lost, a clever plan is hatched that may be the key to rescuing the stranded Fraggles from their isolated island.
Throughout the episode, viewers are treated to a heartfelt tale of adventure, survival, and friendship.
