SEASON 1

 

Episode 9: HOUSE OF CARDS
Nine months have passed on Orangutan Island, and supportive relationships are proving successful as the foundation of this dynamic society. The island hierarchy has powerful Hamlet, at the top and droopy lipped Jordan at the bottom…but there are daily disputes over who sits where in between, although Chen Chen has lost interest, being so preoccupied with his girlfriend Yeyen! Back at the clinic Donald, Mercury and Bonita have relapsed but Togar has made a full recovery and is set to return to Orangutan Island…but after weeks away from his friends will he be accepted back into the community?

The river brings an unexpected treat to the island which initiates extraordinary cooperative behaviour for the group, but then Nadi steps out of line and Daisy, the self appointed sheriff takes it upon herself to punish Nadi - resulting in a serious conflict. Nadi is forced by Daisy into a life threatening situation alone in the forest - will she survive? Or will another shadow be cast over Orangutan Island?

Episode 10: RIVER REWARDS
Nadi's life hangs by a thread after her encounter with the deadly pit viper, as the vet team begin treatment. Meanwhile the dry season has transformed the landscape of Orangutan Island and the river banks now tower twenty feet above the river providing a new playground for the orangutans. Five year old Alibaba finds himself a water bottle on the river's edge - a hot commodity on this island, but Chen Chen pirates it from him to give to his girlfriend Yeyen. Alibaba is forced to seek a precious water bottle elsewhere, which inadvertently turns him into a thief, but what he discovers will benefit the whole community.

Nadi's treatment is a success and physically she is well enough to return to the island, but is she ready emotionally? Nadi will have to face up to Daisy, the self appointed sheriff who was responsible for banishing her from the social platforms leading to her snake bite. What will happen when Lone returns Nadi to the island?
