Ep 15. Octopus Wildkratticus

Chris and Martin Kratt are back in action this time in their underwater adventure in Wild Kratts season 1 episode 15 – Octopus Wildkratticus. The episode follows the brothers as they embark on a thrilling mission in finding the elusive and mysterious Giant Pacific Octopus.

The episode begins with the Kratt brothers exploring the vast ocean in their submarine, ready to uncover new and exciting creatures. They are thrilled to spot a family of octopuses and observe their behavior from afar. But as they delve further into their mission, their attention shifts towards the mysterious Giant Pacific Octopus – a creature of legend that has never been caught on camera.

Chris and Martin decide to take on the daunting mission of finding the Giant Pacific Octopus and capturing it on film. They begin their search near the coast of California and soon receive a tip from a local fisherman about a possible sighting. The Kratt brothers waste no time in investigating and arrive at the scene, only to realize that they have run into trouble – the octopus they were hoping to see has been captured by a fishing net.

The brothers quickly decide to intervene and rescue the Giant Pacific Octopus from the fishermen. With the help of Aviva, who creates a new invention that they use to cut the net, they manage to set the octopus free. However, they face new challenges with the rescue mission as the octopus decides to use the Kratt brothers as its new hiding spot, extending its tentacles over them, swirling and wrapping around them. The viewers are introduced to the special abilities of an octopus, its camouflage, and its ability to hide in minute spaces.

The Kratt brothers take this opportunity to learn more about the octopus and its behavior. They gather samples of its skin, which will help Aviva devise a Creature Power Suit for them to use in their next mission. Once the Octopus is convinced that the Kratt brothers are not a threat, it releases them, enabled by the defense of its ink spray that the Kratt brothers had learned about.

With new knowledge about the Giant Pacific Octopus, the Kratt brothers take on another adventure to learn more. They use their Creature Power Suit to turn into Giant Pacific Octopuses themselves, enabling them to explore the underwater world like never before. They learn how to control the tentacles and use them for a variety of purposes, including hunting prey and escaping from predators.

Their second encounter with the Giant Pacific Octopus is successful as they capture on camera the elusive creature in its natural habitat, capturing one of the creatures around them and seeing firsthand how the octopus defends itself against predators, such as a shark.

Overall, Wild Kratts Season 1 Episode 15 – Octopus Wildkratticus is an exciting and educational journey into the underwater world, showcasing the many hidden wonders that exist below the surface. As always, the Kratt brothers have managed to turn a fun adventure into an informative and engaging show that both educates and entertains its viewers.
