Plot
The episode starts with Giggles playing I spy. First she spied a bunny. The viewer found Cuddles. Then, Cuddles lands on Giggles’ head and she tickles him. Cuddles wants to play I spy too. He spied a Pirate Parrot. The viewer tells them that the parrot is on the tree branch. Pirate Parrot asks them if they were looking for the blue key. Giggles and Cuddles asked Pirate Parrot what he means by that. He said that the blue key is the key to a big treasure chest. They wondered what’s in the chest, and Pirate Parrot said that it is definitely filled with gold. There is also toys, beads, chocolate cupcakes with pink icing, and stickers. First, they have to find the blue key that opens the treasure chest. After they found it, they asked Map where the treasure is. He tells them that it is at Treasure Island. But first, they have to go through the Lookout Tree, then across the Crocodile Lake, and then they should be able to find Treasure Island. Giggles and Cuddles are now ready to go find the treasure. En route to the Lookout Tree, they stopped Lifty from swiping the blue key. After that, they reach the Lookout Tree. Cuddles puts the blue key in Giggles’ purse for safe keeping. Now, they went past the Lookout Tree. Soon after, they have to go across the icky sticky mud. Giggles and Cuddles wonder what he means. He explains to them that if they take one step in the icky sticky mud, they would be stuck there forever! So they need to find a way to get across. Luckily, there is a plank. They have to walk very carefully to get across the icky sticky mud without falling. Pirate Parrot does a demo. After that, he flies away. Cuddles tries to walk on the plank, but it wobbles and Cuddles got off. Giggles knows a trick. They should put their arms up like a bird so they don't fall. They try it and in no time, they not only went past the Lookout Tree, but also went across the icky sticky mud. After that, they go to Crocodile Lake. When they got to there, they need a boat to get across. Giggles does not see a boat, neither does Cuddles. Just then, Pirate Parrot offered them a ride on a pirate ship. They get on, and off they went. Pirate Parrot explains to Giggles and Cuddles that Crocodile Lake is filled with big crocodiles. Pirate Parrot knows what to do, they should sing a conga tune called "Grande, grande, grande!". In English, they say "big", in Spanish they say "grande". At first, the crocodiles try to attack them, but Giggles, Cuddles, and Pirate Parrot put their arms up wide to show the crocodiles that they are really big. While they do that, they sing "Grande, grande, grande" to the crocodiles so that they will not attack their ship. Suddenly, all the crocodiles are dancing except one. So they sing again, but a little louder. Sure enough, the one crocodile and all the others are dancing and they even sing. "Grande, grande, grande! Grande, grande, grande!", they sang. The ship heads for Treasure Island, and Giggles and Cuddles got out the blue key from Purse. Then, they raced up to the top to meet up with Russell and his girlfriend, Flaky. They had to be careful with the blue key because Lifty could swipe it. Suddenly, they see Lifty in a pirate hat and purple cape and he swipes the key and threw it far away, but they were able to find the blue key. Once they got back, they had to go to the treasure chest. Russell told them that he buried the chest under one of the yellow stones. But to get there, they had to hop on 8 red stone and then on 8 yellow stones. After that, Russell lifts up the yellow stone and they find an "X". They dug up a hole and soon, they found the treasure chest and they open it up. Inside the treasure chest was gold and lots of other kinds of treasures.

 * Lifty comes out as a pirate with Russell and Flaky when Giggles and Cuddles arrive with the blue treasure key, also, he doesn't make his whisking sound since he's already seen, Giggles just mentions him saying that Russell needs to be careful making sure that he doesn't swipe the blue treasure key in which he does.
