- Horn!
- Whoah!
That springy plant just shot my carrot way into the forest!
- Mmrph!
- Hey, Cat's footprints stop right at the plant!
Triceratops, did Cat step on the plant and get thrown into the forest?
- Horn, horn, horn.
- So that means Cat could be anywhere in there!
This is a REALLY BIG PROBLEM!!
(dramatic music) - Cat probably landed in the far corner of the forest.
That's where the springy plant sends stuff.
- Whoa!
You can say more than horn!
I keep forgetting.
- It's understandable.
- So you think Cat flew into the forest like the carrot?
- Yep.
In fact, that carrot should be hitting him on the head right about... - (from afar): Ow!
-...now.
- Do you know how to get to the far corner of the forest, Triceratops?
- Not off the top of my head, but you should take my map.
- Your map?
Where?
- Off the top of my head!
That is a map of the whole forest.
- OK, so we have to get from this corner, where the springy plant is, all the way to that corner, with the really tall tree.
First we'll pass by 30 sticky flowers.
- Hang on.
Doesn't it say "3" next to the sticky flowers?
- No because that circle next to the 3 is the number zero.
- But doesn't zero mean "none?"
- Yes, but there's more to it than that.
♪♪ Zero is the least of anything that there can be ♪ ♪ But if you put that little zero right after a three ♪ ♪ The number gets much bigger now thirty's what you've got ♪ ♪ So if you put it here-o ♪ ♪ Small as it may appear-o ♪ ♪ That little number zero ♪ ♪ Can really do a lot ♪♪ - I don't get it.
- OK, look!
There are ten sticky flowers on each plant.
That's 10, 20, 30 flowers!
And here are 3 flowers.
3...30!
- Ohh.
30 is more.
- Way more!
Whoa!
I just tripped over that ridge!
