Jack, Will, and Holly, along with their loyal friend Cha-Ka, find themselves faced with a unique predicament that will put their survival skills to the ultimate test.
The episode begins with the Marshalls attempting to gather food for the day. However, their usual hunting and gathering methods seem to be growing increasingly difficult to succeed at within the prehistoric jungle. As they ponder their next move, a peculiar sound catches their attention. Following the noise, they stumble upon a seemingly abandoned campsite. Curiosity getting the best of them, the family decides to investigate.
To their surprise, the campsite is not entirely deserted. They soon encounter an old man named Malak, who has been living alone in this unforgiving environment for ages. Despite his initial hesitations, Malak warms up to the Marshalls' friendly nature and invites them to share a meal with him. However, he insists on cooking a mysterious dish known as "stone soup," which piques the family's interest.
Accepting the invitation, the Marshalls sit around the fire, eagerly awaiting the preparation of this peculiar meal. As Malak begins to explain the ingredients and process behind his stone soup, the family becomes increasingly skeptical. They find it hard to believe that such a dish could be made with stones as the main ingredient, deeming it impossible.
Meanwhile, tensions rise as Cha-Ka, their helpful albeit mischievous young friend, grows incredibly hungry. Blinded by hunger, he decides to venture out on his own in an attempt to find something to eat. Unbeknownst to him, a dangerous Sleestak lurks in the shadows, patiently waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike.
Back at the campsite, Malak continues to cook his stone soup, sharing tales of his survival in this remarkable yet perilous land. Despite their doubts about the dish, there is something intriguing about Malak's stories that make the Marshalls hesitant to dismiss his claims entirely.
Amidst their captivating conversation, the Marshalls hear a rustling noise in the distance. As they investigate the sound, they stumble upon Cha-Ka's path, evidence that he had ventured off into dangerous territory. Plagued by worry, they begin a frantic search for their little friend, hoping to find him before any harm befalls him.
While searching, the Marshalls come across intriguing rock formations that could potentially hold clues about this mystifying world they find themselves trapped in. Sensing the presence of danger, they proceed with caution, careful not to become entrapped within this ancient labyrinth themselves.
As the day progresses, the Marshalls find themselves weaving through countless hidden paths and encountering a myriad of obstacles. Faced with these challenges, they rely on their wit, resourcefulness, and unwavering determination to navigate through this perilous environment and find Cha-Ka.
