Plot: Bandit takes the girls out to the koala sanctuary, where Bingo finds the fossil of a lizard. Bluey decides to "swapsies" Bingo's fossil for her stuffed koala so she can bring the fossil to show-and-tell. But Bluey forgets the number-one rule of swapsies: No swap-backs!

INTRO:

Mom! Dad! Bingo! Bluey!

EXT. KOALA SANCTUARY- ENTRANCE

"Now, let's see.." Bandit rummaged through his wallet, looking for his credit card. "Ah, found it!" He turned to his girls and frowned. "Hey, what're you two doing?"

"Playing koalas!" Bluey was digging in the dirt, and Bingo was hanging onto a fence pole. "I'm the mommy koala, and Bingo's the baby."

"I thought I was the mommy." Bingo frowned.

"Well, we swapsied our roles, remember?" Bluey glanced at her sister.

"Oh, yeah!" Bingo smiled. "But remember, once you make a swapsie,"

"No swap-backs, I know Bingo." Bluey rolled her eyes.

"Swapsies or no swapsies, we need to get going." Bandit tapped his card on the register. "The koala sanctuary isn't waiting for us."

"Okay, Dad!" Bingo got up and brushed off the dirt from her knees, but not before she saw something shiny on the ground next to her. It was a rock-like substance shaped like a rigid paw. Bingo picked it up and blew the debris off.

"What's that in your hand, Bingo?" Bluey peered her head over.

"I dunno, but it looks so cool!" Bingo moved her paw over the bumps. "Dad, look at what I found in the dirt."

"Put the worm down, Bin- Oh, crikey." Bandit almost dropped his card.

"What happened, Dad?" Bingo cocked her head and frowned. "Did I do something wrong?"

"I-I think you've found a fossil."

"Oh, come on, Bingo!" Bluey whined. "I just want to hold it!"

"Daddy said that fossils are fragile." Bingo covered the fossil with her paws. "I need to be very careful with it."

Bluey groaned. "Please, please, pleeeease!"

"No." Bingo shook her head.

"Ugh!" She sulked over to Bandit, who was buying the girls some sausages for lunch. "It's not fair, Dad. I want something special like Bingo has!"

"You already have the koala plushie you won at the balloon toss." Bandit sighed. 

"I do..." Bluey fidgeted, then stomped her foot. "But I want a fossil! Show and tell is tomorrow and nobody wants to see a boring old koala!"

"Plushie." Bingo added.

"Please, Bingo." Bluey begged one last time. "Why don't we swapsies our stuff?" She pointed to the fossil. "If you give me your fossil then I'll give you my koala."

Bingo blinked.

"PLEASE!" Bluey fell to her knees and made the pleasiest please face that she could muster. "I'll let you have horsey rides on my back."

Bingo bit her lip. "Can I have three horsey rides?"

"As much as you want."

She smiled, and extended her paw out for a shake. "Then it's a deal. We'll swapsies when we get home."
