Save the Rat Pack!/Save the Fiddler Crab on the Roof! is the 18th episode of the second season of the children's animated show Wonder Pets. The episode begins with the three main characters, Linny the Guinea Pig, Tuck the Turtle, and Ming-Ming Duckling, getting a phone call from a group of rats in Las Vegas. The rat pack is in trouble and needs the Wonder Pets' help.
The Wonder Pets fly to Las Vegas in their Flyboat and land in front of a casino. They enter the casino and find the rat pack performing on stage. The rats are playing instruments and singing, but something is not right. One of the rats, Sammy, is missing. The other rats think Sammy has been kidnapped and they need the Wonder Pets to help find him.
The Wonder Pets split up to search the casino for Sammy. While searching, they find a hole in the wall that leads to an underground tunnel. Ming-Ming follows the tunnel and finds Sammy trapped in a cage. She quickly frees him, and they run back to the stage.
As it turns out, Sammy was not kidnapped. He was trying to avoid performing because he was nervous about singing his solo. The Wonder Pets encourage him and help him gain the confidence to sing his solo on stage. The rat pack performs their song, and the audience loves it. The Wonder Pets are happy to have helped their new friends.
In the second half of the episode, the Wonder Pets receive a call from a fiddler crab who is stuck on the roof of a house. The crab has climbed up a drainpipe and cannot climb back down. The Wonder Pets fly to the location and put on their scuba diving gear to rescue the crab.
The Wonder Pets knock on the door of the house and ask the homeowner, Ms. Vida, if they can climb onto her roof to rescue the fiddler crab. Ms. Vida is hesitant, but the Wonder Pets convince her that they can safely rescue the crab. They climb up the drainpipe and find the crab. Linny attaches a string to the crab's claw, and Tuck and Ming-Ming pull the crab up to safety.
As they are about to leave, a seagull swoops down and takes Ms. Vida's cat. The Wonder Pets quickly come up with a plan to save the cat. They use a nearby garden hose to spray water at the seagull, causing it to drop the cat. The cat lands safely on a nearby roof, and the Wonder Pets bring it back to Ms. Vida.
The episode ends with the Wonder Pets receiving a thank you letter from the fiddler crab. He thanks them for saving his life, and lets them know that he is now playing his fiddle in his new home under the sea. The Wonder Pets are happy to have made a new friend and saved the day once again.
In conclusion, Save the Rat Pack!/Save the Fiddler Crab on the Roof! is an exciting and heartwarming episode of Wonder Pets that teaches children about teamwork, bravery, and friendship. The episode is filled with catchy songs, cute characters, and exciting adventures that will keep children engaged and entertained from start to finish.
