    When Morton and Frank (AKA "Sheerluck Homes" and "The Doctor") are asked by Winnifred to investigate why Alice has been so rude to her, they discover that the root of the issue lies in a story that's been told to Alice.

    BONUS: Safety Tips with Rob - Pests

    The Cottonwood Trails crew has had a crazy hectic summer this year, and so we had to take a bit of a break from full episode production, meaning, unfortunately, no full episode this September... BUT we do still have a couple of treats for you this month though - we're releasing the first two "Safety Tips with Rob" bonus episodes!!! So here's "Safety Tips with Rob" #1 (entitled "Pests"). Episode #2 will release later in September (so keep a look out for that!), and we'll be back to full episodes, as normal, in October! Want to hear the backstory behind the "Safety Tips with Rob" broadcasts?
