Many of the troubles faced by older generations are still occurring in communities today.

What do we do when people fall through the cracks?

How do we bring our missing home?

And how do we stop them from getting lost in the first place?

The three elders arrive ready to lead Cheese out on a visit with the land.

When they arrive in the woods, Cheese gladly takes point.

Next on the docket of healing activities is fishing.

Again, each elder has their own perspective to offer the young Cheese.

Fishing doesnt impress Cheese much, so Brownie tries a more direct approach.

Bucky lands a couple of fish, so the party returns to cook up their dinner.

Big is next in line to offer some lessons.

While the two are out collecting firewood, Big takes the opportunity to regale Cheese with some Bigfoot stories.

As a young boy, Big spotted four Bigfoots (Bigfeets?

out in those same woods.

The stinky critters just stared at the frightened boy before disappearing again into the forest.

That Big is really a magnet for the supernatural, no?

Yet in spite of Bigs insistence, Cheese remains skeptical of the existence of that big brother being.

This leads Brownie and Bucky to open up about their guilt over Maximus.

First, I expect to see some sort of resolution to all of this business regarding Maximus.

Presumably he has been institutionalized again, but will his old friends locate him and spring him out?

Or, at the very least, make a trip to visit him?

Will Old Man Fixico be able to make peace with his cousin before he walks on?

Who is he, and will meeting him help Elora to make a decision about her future?
