Polos on the Road
Marco gathers the Polos for their first trip to the “real” non-digital world in Willow’s newly built Polomobile, but not before its first test run accidentally sends the vehicle with Chester alone in it flying out over all the various Biomes on Earth.
Fossil Hunters
While exploring for fossils, the Polos find a single bone and try to figure out if it belongs to a dinosaur.
Polos Super Selfies
When Chester's selfie with all the Polos accidentally includes a photobombing crocodile, it inspires the Polos to take more selfies with other rainforest animals and plants.

When a zebra that Nash was observing gets scared off, the Polos travel the savannah to help Nash reunite with the zebra, which they’re able to identify by its individual stripe pattern.
Wish Upon a Shooting Star
Gorby makes a Wish upon a Shooting Star… and his wish is that the other Polos can all get to wish on their own shooting stars too!

Marco has found a clue that there's something leaving tracks behind on Mars, but seeing how planets need water to sustain life, the Polos wonder if it's a creature... or something else.
Perfect Fit
Lily wants to collect seashells on the beach to add to her collection, but her old shells mysteriously start to go missing, thanks to a hermit crab who's looking for a bigger home.

Clean Up
Litterbug Nash learns to pick up after himself when he sees improperly disposed-of trash harming sea life in the ocean.
Echolocation
While Marco and Lily swim with the dolphins, Nash's favorite dolphin stuffy toy falls overboard and sinks to the ocean floor. Chester recovers it in the PoloSub using the same technique the dolphins use: echolocation.
Space Rescue!
When the Polos fly back to the Sun after visiting Pluto, they realize they accidentally left Chester stranded on Pluto! On their flight back to rescue him, they do something they know will make Chester feel better: compile interesting facts about each planet that they can then share with Chester.
Adventuring in Space
A close brush with a comet challenges Lily as Willow teaches her how to fly the PoloGalactic, and the Polos learn more about what comets are.
Monkeying Around
When the PoloMobile gets stuck high in a tree in the Amazon Rainforest, the Polos are inspired by some spider monkeys to 'take a big swing' to get free of the foliage.
An Iguana Tale
When the Polos play hide and seek in the rainforest, Gorby, the 'seeker' and the gang become inspired by a rainforest creature who's an expert evader of predators: the green iguana.
Watch It Grow
Gorby feels awful after accidentally flattening a sapling while on a hike, but makes up for it by rallying his fellow Polos to do some tree planting in an area affected by deforestation.
Night Song
Marco leads the Polos on campout in the forest with the goal of staying up really late. What they discover, is that many animals are at their most active at night time.
Whale Song
Sometimes Lily likes to sing music without words, and it proves to be the perfect accompaniment for the unique way that humpback whales communicate through 'whale song'.
Shipwrecked
When a thunderstorm with approaching lightning leads the Polos to make a bumpy detour onto a deserted island beach, Willow must find a way to fix the damaged PoloBoat using materials available on the island.
Rollin' Rollin'
While the Polos put the finishing touches on a gift for Marco, they mimic the guarding actions of the Meerkat to assure that Marco doesn’t get an early glimpse of the gift.
Heads Up
The Polos’ perception of big and small animals is challenged when they see how the formidable lion doesn’t actually do all that much because it’s at the top of the food chain, while the lowly dung beetle is mighty creature relative to its small size.
The Deep
When Nash accidentally drops his stuffy overboard (again!), the Polos venture to the deepest, darkest, and most water-pressured part of the ocean to get it back: the midnight zone.
Guard That Turtle
The Polos arrive on the beach to see the baby sea turtle eggs have all hatched... except for one little egg. Nash leads the Polos charge to guard the newly hatched turtle from predators as it makes its short, challenge-filled crawl to the water.
The Disappearing Log Trick
In full magician mode, Lily is eager to do her disappearing coin trick for her friends, but the Polos have another disappearing act to figure out: what happened to their favorite fallen tree “bench” that’s gone missing from the forest.
A Sticky Solution
Frustrated by a rattling sound in the PoloMobile that she wants to fix but can’t reach, Willow’s observations of how a woodpecker uses its long, sticky tongue to fish insects out of trees, inspires her to a solution for reaching the hard-to-get-to rattling object.
Do You Read Me
When the Polos lose communication with Gorby and Lily, and learn that it’s because a communication satellite has stopped working, Marco leads the charge into orbit to investigate the problem.
Asteroids!
While The Polos try to avoid asteroids in space, Lily accidentally breaks Chester's Lego-like model of the PoloGalactic. Only when Chester learns that asteroids have also been broken apart over time, does he forgive Lily and realize he can build his model back up from the blocks of his friends.
Ants
When Willow accidentally ejects all the PoloMobile’s contents outside the vehicle, the Polos gather up and return the items inside in quick, orderly succession like the leafcutter ants they observe.
Slow As a Sloth
Gorby can’t keep up with Lily as she leads the others in zipping around to watch a macaw in the rainforest, then stops a she finds a creature to watch that’s more his speed: the three-toed sloth.
Run Like a Cheetah
Inspired by how athletic cheetahs are, Lily enlists Willow’s help to find out what makes cheetahs such great athletes in the animal world.
Hippo Surprise
When Marco sees hippos in action, he’s surprised to learn that such big, clumsy looking animals don’t sink when they go in the water, and that they spend much of their lives in the water, which leads the Polos to explore their own hidden talents.
A Noisy Bug
When Willow’s noisy gadgets go wayward, the Polos round them all up, but even after they turn them off, the loud buzzing sound they hear continues... because it’s being made by cicadas out in the forest, a whole lot of cicadas!
Black Bear Surprise
The Polos are observing black bears and learning about how they survive in the forest, when Chester sees a white bear and mistakes it for a polar bear, only to discover that it’s a Kermode Bear, which is a rare and unique type of black bear.
Camouflage
Gorby learns how to be a better hider when playing hide and seek by observing how an octopus can camouflage itself to match its surroundings when it wants to hide.
Sharks!!
Marco wants to take a selfie with a cool underwater sea creature, and gets a most surprising one with a Great White Shark.
Polonauts!
Willow is confident that her Polomobile rocket upgrades will get them into space, but isn’t as confident in her own astronaut training alongside her friends. The other Polos give Willow a confidence boost to remind her that she can do anything she puts her mind to.
First on the Moon
Gorby’s never been the ‘first’ at anything, and he wants to change that – by being the first person to walk on the moon! Chester knows that humans were the first to visit the moon many decades ago, and he worries that if he tells Gorby that, he’ll upset him.
Who Needs a Web
Gorby has trouble stopping Nash from raiding the Polos’ picnic basket, but after watching how tarantulas catch their prey without needing a web like other spiders do, he realizes that there are often different approaches you can take to succeed at a task.
Not What We Thought
Like the wide variety of marsupials they observe in Australia, Willow’s guessing game about what one of her mystery tools is used for elicits a big range of guesses from her fellow Polos who want to be the first to figure it out.
These Horses are Wild
While exploring an area called a steppe, Lily and the Polos find a horse and assume then it’s lost, only to discover that it’s from a herd of wild horses which leads them to question how these rare and special horses can survive in the wild without human care.
Growing Concern
When the Polos observe some tadpoles and Nash sees how different they look from the frogs they’ll eventually grow into, he begins wondering how different he might look when he grows up.
We're Gonna Have A Party
When Chester discovers a butterfly pupa, or chrysalis, attached to the PoloMobile, the Polos carefully put it in a fishbowl to protect it, and three weeks later they return to where they found it in the rainforest to watch it emerge… only to discover that their pupa wasn’t holding a butterfly after all.
What's That Flying Around?
Marco and the rest of the Polos become nature detectives when they try to figure out which unidentified strange-looking creature is flying overhead.
Get Out In The Sun
Willow spends so much time working on the PoloMobile that its batteries are almost drained… and the solar panels needed to recharge the vehicle are broken.
Best Birthday Ever
Willow has planned her own best birthday ever with stops around the world for her favourite activities, and discovers a benefit nobody was expecting - the day never ends!
Going Backwards
Watching how a hummingbird flies backwards inspires the Polos to have a Backwards Day where they have fun doing their normal activities backwards… but Marco isn’t great at doing things backwards and has a harder time with it than he thought he would.
Best Place
After observing various birds and seeing how they put their nests in different places depending on their needs, the Polos realize that various items they’ve been looking for are missing because they’ve all been using different drawers and bins as lost and found spots.
Fossil Hunters
While exploring for fossils, the Polos find a single bone and try to figure out if it belongs to a dinosaur.
Watch It Grow

The Polos
Marco
Marco is a passionate explorer and a natural leader. He’s confident, enthusiastic, and inclusive, inspiring the Polos to look for new experiences and take on new challenges. He’s likeable, trustworthy, and kind, a person the other Polos can count on. An environmentalist, Marco is endlessly curious about the natural world.
Willow
Willow is an engineering genius – she built the PoloMobile after all. She’s girly and not afraid to take charge. She’s constantly designing gadgets that help the Polos on their adventures – from her speed tracker to her zebra stripe matcher, she gives the Polos ways to measure, evaluate, and illuminate the world around them.
Chester
Chester knows a lot of stuff – how frogs metamorphose, what a marsupial is, why bats echolocate – and he loves sharing it with the other Polos. He enjoys getting the right answers to all of the Polos’ questions, from his PoloPad, as they explore. He’s an adventurer at heart, totally willing to ride a zipline or dive to the midnight zone.
Gorby
Gorby is a big guy with a big heart and an eye for detail. He notices things – a hidden bird’s nest, the patterns on a butterfly’s wings, the colors in Neptune’s rings – that can lead the other Polos to new discoveries about the world around them. He’s not afraid to ask a silly question or laugh at himself. Also, he’s a hugger.
Lily
Lily is a star athlete, not just physically but mentally. She’s energetic and physical – running, jumping, racing cheetahs. But she’s also got the persistence and self-discipline of a champion – she’s always willing to try hard, go farther and not give up. She may be little but she’s mighty.
Nash
Nash is a two-year-old wild child. He speaks just a few words at a time and has a little trouble with his “r’s” but he can make himself heard in the group. He’s playful and loves getting into things which means he often is the first to discover something unusual – from T-Rex fossil footprints to dung beetles rolling their balls of poop.
