While browsing through the forest, Wicket's father Deej falls over a treetrunk, and falls into a tree covered with a strange mushroom-type growth. Deej comes in contact with it, and becomes very ill. A strange creature called a Gupin, who happened to be in the neighborhood, caused the whole ordeal, and was blamed for it. The Ewoks go to Logray's hut, where Logray tells Wicket about several ingredients that he has to gather, that will serve as a cure for Logray's illness. Wicket and his brother goofy brother Willy, along with their oldest brother Weechee, split up and go look for the ingredients. Willy finds his ingredient, a feather in an enormous bird's nest, first, but gets caught in the bird's nest. While Wicket is searching for the star urchin (the ingredient he has to look for), he finds the Gupin tied to a tree, captured by several odd-looking creatures. Wicket frees the Gupin, and the two escape together. Coincidentally, Wicket finds the star urchin at the same time. After
