Note #1: Based on season 1, episode 36 "Birds of a Feather." Can't believe the Wild Kratts predicted Billie Eilish /j

Martin calls Clover on his Creature Pod and invites her out to see the mating dance of the male birds. She tried declining their offer, but they kept on being persistent. She sighed and eventually gave in.

"Don't think I'll try to do any of their funny moves—because I can't! I'm just going to bring you the Power Discs to make it more convenient for you two, hmph," She slightly rants and hangs up.

Chris and Martin are just happy they're going to spend more time with her. Clover arrives on her improved Dandelion Driver.

"Clover! You're just in time," Chris cheers.

"I suppose watching this is a pretty rare opportunity," Clover stays more positive. "Aviva told me the Birds of Paradise discs are already programmed into your suits," she gives the bros their Creature Power Suits.

They thank her as she hides next to Martin. Hip Hop, the bird Martin named, starts to dance. The trio are quite impressed. Clover is fascinated by the feathers he has.

"He certainly knows a way on how to impress the girls," she says to Martin, not giving it a second thought.

They all enjoy the dance. Chris slides down from the tree and tries to mimic the dance.

"C'mon, Clover. You might like it," Martin joins in.

"You can even use my Creature Power Suit, if you want," Chris hands it to her.

She looks at it in amazement. This is such a high honor in her eyes. In her favorite color and everything. But most importantly, it's given by her favorite Wild Kratt. Don't tell the others.

Martin encourages her even more. She stands up and agrees. "Maybe you're right," she grins.

While she puts on the Creature Power Suit, her nose is instantly greeted with whiffs of Chris' scent. She cancels out the bad from the good such as its size, but the only thing running through her mind is that she's wearing a Creature Power Suit for the first time!

"Thanks, Chris," she wraps her arms around herself, making sure she doesn't activate it yet.

Chris and Martin dance off somewhere else. Once she's alone, she frowns a bit.

"But...no matter what Creature Power I have, I still don't know how to dance," she walks over to the branch Hip Hop is perched on. "You seem a lot more confident than me, Hip Hop. Do you ever get nervous?" He blinks and chirps. "Hm, I guess I won't know for sure. Look at this," she wobbles back and forth with no sign of balance or rhythm. "I dance like a penguin sliding on ice. It's no use."

She walks back and hears the bros cheering while they continue dancing.

"But on the other hand, maybe Chris is right? I'll never know until I'll try. And Martin's right, too. It's all about having fun...something I kinda struggle with when I'm nervous. Maybe your moves and style will bounce onto me," she looks down at the Creature Power Suit again.

This is the sign of a true Wild Kratt. This is her opportunity to shine.

"It's worth a shot. Let's do this!" She motivates herself.

"I just need some of your DNA so I can activate the suit," she taps his feather. "Thank you very much. Now, let's put these moves to the test. Activate Creature Power!" She taps the button.

She changes into a yellow Creature Suit version of the bird. "Hm? I thought this was going to be green? Oh well. It's not about the color. It's about—!" She poses covering the top and bottom part of her head with her wings. "The moves."
