Lulu and her brother, Jelani, are going to participate in a village festival. However, they need to practice their drumming skills.

How would Jett and his friends get the gorilla to come back and perform with them?

Plot[]

The episode begins with Jett meeting Big Wing, who is unable to take off the runway due to a flock of pigeons occupying it. Jett tries to shoo them, but they do not budge. Bello arrives and communicates with the pigeons to get them to chase him off the runway. Jett then gets called to headquarters by Jimbo, who tells him that he'll be delivering a package to a girl named Lulu, who lives in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in Africa. Jimbo explains that the Congo is full of rainforests and gorilla, and that "mbote" means "hello" in Lingala, a language spoken in the Congo region. Jett excitedly receives the package and departs for the Congo.

Jett arrives and meets Lulu and her younger brother Jelani. Their package is revealed to contain three conga drums. Jelani plays the smallest while Lulu plays the medium-sized drum. Jett offers to play the biggest drum for the Village Festival later today and they accept. The trio is later practicing outside, and the rhythm catches the attention of a gorilla watching overhead. When the three leave to eat papayas, the gorilla begins playing on the drums. They return and hear the catchy beat. Lulu wants to ask the gorilla to play with them, but it gets scared and runs away. Jett attempts to chase after it but gets stuck in vines.

Jett calls Jimbo, who deploys Bello to help out. Bello cuts Jett free from the vines. He then tells Jett, Jelani, and Lulu to listen for the beat the gorilla makes by beating his chest and copy it to get the gorilla to come back. The gorilla gets interested and happily plays with them. He later plays alongside Lulu and Jelani during the village festival. The episode ends with Jett and Bello returning to World Airport.
