Binky responds that the rarest thing he has seen is the worst player on the Grebes baseball team get a hit, and Muffy complains about a steak that is not rare.

Feeling guilty about his actions, Buster disguises himself as a monster and goes to the forest to scare everyone off. | ||
The next day, Brain heads back to the forest, and this time, Buster joins him. They both find the grebe, but it soon flies away after Brain accidentally plays a recording of a [[Sticky Chicken|Chickin' Lickin]] promo and Buster fails to record the grebe's call. In the end, Brain is relieved that they at least saw the grebe, so he and Buster walk off happily. | |||
