- November 10, 2020
The show Trash Truck is an animated children's show that follows the adventures of a little boy named Hank and his best friend, a garbage truck named Trash Truck. Together, they explore the world and learn important life lessons while having fun and being silly.
In season 1, episode 5, titled "Hide and Seek," Hank and Trash Truck play a game of hide and seek with their friends, Walter and Donny. Hank is a little nervous about the game because he's not very good at hiding, but Trash Truck assures him that they will have fun no matter what.
The four friends search for hiding spots around the neighborhood, and Hank struggles to come up with a good spot. He tries hiding behind a tree, but it's too small; he tries hiding in a trash can, but it's too dirty; and he tries hiding under a car, but it's too cramped.
Meanwhile, the other three friends are having a blast hiding and trying to find each other. Walter finds a perfect spot in a bush, Donny hides in a tree, and Trash Truck hides behind a building. The game is going well until Hank gets a little frustrated.
He wanders off to find a better hiding spot, but ends up getting lost. He doesn't know where the others are, and he can't find his way back home. Hank starts to panic, but then remembers something his dad told him - to stay put and wait for someone to find him.
Hank decides to sit down and wait for his friends to find him, but he's worried that they won't be able to. He starts to think about all the things he's grateful for in his life, like his family, his friends, and Trash Truck.
Meanwhile, the other three friends realize that Hank is missing and start to search for him. They split up and call out his name, but he doesn't respond. They start to worry that something bad happened to him.
Just when they were about to give up, they hear a faint voice calling out for help. They follow the sound and find Hank sitting on a bench, looking relieved to see them. They rush over to him and give him a big hug.
Hank tells them that he got lost while trying to find a hiding spot, and that he was scared. But he also tells them that he remembered to stay put and wait for someone to find him, and that it made him feel better.
The four friends walk back home together, feeling grateful for each other's company and happy to have found Hank. They decide to play another game of hide and seek, but this time, they make a rule that nobody can wander off by themselves.
The episode ends with Hank riding on Trash Truck's back, feeling happy and content. They may not have won the game of hide and seek, but they learned an important lesson about staying safe and being grateful for the people in their lives.
