− | Back at Ranger HQ, [[Chip]] voices his opinions while [[Gadget]] and [[Monty]] install [[Gadget]]'s newest device, 'the super sensitive gyro-compass navigation panel', into the [[Ranger Wing]]. A small swallow flutters down to [[Chip]]. She introduces herself as [[Midge]]. She explains that she's looking for Capistrano. She was able to follow everyone else last year. But this year, there's no one to follow and now [[Midge]] is lost. [[Gadget]] offers the Rangers' services in helping [[Midge]] get to Capistrano. But [[Chip]] refuses to help her. He goes so far as to even make poor [[Midge]] cry. This causes the other Rangers to cry too. [[Chip]], felling badly, gives in and agrees to help [[Midge]]. | + | Back at Ranger HQ, [[Chip]] voices his opinions while [[Gadget]] and [[Monty]] install [[Gadget]]'s newest device, 'the super sensitive gyro-compass navigation panel', into the [[Ranger Wing]].
