About this episode
Fern's scarecrow keeps walking away from its post… and every morning another lettuce is gone! Join Bobo & Pim, the woodland detective duo, as they try to catch a scarecrow that will not stay put, from sunrise to sundown in the park, in this fun animated mystery for kids!
Fern's scarecrow is supposed to guard her six fat lettuces. But every morning it is standing somewhere else in the meadow, facing away from the tall tree, and a sneaky raccoon has helped himself to another lettuce. Bobo wants the walker caught, and every order he gives makes things worse: he has the scarecrow painted SCARIER… he ties it to the tall tree so it cannot escape… and then he puts on its straw hat and becomes the scarecrow himself! Pim keeps asking why the scarecrow always faces away from that tree. Can YOU work out who keeps moving the scarecrow before Bobo does? Follow the clues to find out whoo-dunnit… and discover the happy surprise waiting at the end!
