Andy and the Darkling Beetle
When Mr Hammond asks Andy to open the new brilliant bugs exhibit at the park, Andy couldn't be more delighted. But when Mr Hammond asks Andy a question about how the darkling beetle of the Namib desert drinks water, Andy is flummoxed. If the grand opening is to be a success, Andy needs to know the answer! Jetting off in his safari mobile, Andy heads to the Namib desert in Africa, in search of a darkling beetle that will hopefully show him how it drinks. Along the way, he shrinks down and meets a Namaqua chameleon, but gets quite a shock when he realises it's trying to eat not only the darkling beetles, but Andy himself! Making his escape, Andy follows the beetles up a giant sand dune where he's surprised to find it's particularly foggy. Here, he witnesses first hand just how the beetles drink. But will Andy make it back to the park in time with the answer and before the exhibition opens?

Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
