The ship is orbiting the Earth, while Dokko gives it and Pin all sorts of praise for being such a marvelous invention, while Krash is being bored again. However, during their cruising, the ship suddenly ends up in a meteor shower, getting damaged and ending up in the desert. Once Dokko, Krash and Chiko wake up, they notice Pin's not with them, as is the ship. As they begin walking through the desert, they notice a huge metal block lying on the ground, and assume it's the ship's engine. Realizing this, they assume Pin won't be able to get them back home, so they decide to get the engine back to the ship.

As they drag the engine through the desert, they suddenly stumble upon a huge wall of sand blocking their way, and decide to figure out a way to get the engine on the other side. Dokko decides to use simple mechanics to slide it up the wall, and they find an old windmill to use as a bridge to the other side. However, they accidentally lose grip of the engine and it falls into a nearby dried-out well. The three decide to make a pulley by tugging the rope to the nearby tree and pushing the engine up. As they continue dragging it, they soon discover their path is blocked by rocks, and use a nearby stick as a lever to pull all the rocks out of the way. As they finally make it to the ship, they notice it's flying perfectly fine, as Pin reveals the engine they dragged back hasn't worked in years, making their journey completely pointless.

Tropes:

  • All for Nothing: It turns out Pin's ship wasn't damaged at all, and that the engine they dragged to it is the old one.
  • Tempting Fate: Just as Dokko tells Krash the ship is disaster-proof, he says he wouldn't mind a disaster happening… And what happens immediately afterwards is just that, as they get into the meteor shower and crash in the desert.
