After they were separated from Gabi, Vivo and Emilie  found birds

Vivo: birds. Birds-eye view. Perfect. Hey guys!!  We need your help spotting somebody!!! 

And then Vivo fell and Emilie climbed down out of slight concern for the kinkajou. Then they saw another bird.

Vivo: Ugh. Oh, good. A bird. Excuse me. Uh, I'm Vivo and this is my friend Emilie.

Emilie: not even my friend. I'm just here to get the song to Marta, that's it.

Vivo's mind: so she's still giving me the cold shoulder.

Vivo sighed

Emilie: And we got separated from our friend. Purple hair, necktie. Could you maybe fly us up and help us spot her?

Dancarino:  Normally I'd help someone out, but I'm getting ready to take the long dirt nap.

Vivo: what? no,no,no,no,no,no! Don't talk like that! I'm sure you've got a lot to live for!

Dancarino: it's not like that. Actually I'm just taking a literal nap. Yeah, i'm just hibernating until the end of my life. *laughs* I mean the end of dating season!

Vivo: dating. Sounds horrible. As I was saying—

Dancarino: you don't understand Vivo. All my life I've been told, "don't worry Dancarino." "One dating season, you're gonna find the girl of your dreams and love's gonna pick you up."

Vivo: that's great, but we got a thing—

They saw 2 spoonbills in love

The two spoonbills: love's gonna pick you up and never put you down

Dancarino: Yeah, we all know the tune! Wanna cool it with all that love?!*sighs*

Vivo: um, so, we're kind of in a bit of a time crunch.

Dancarino: I've been here for 8 count them, 8 straight seasons, and instead of love picking me up, it's dumped me in a ditch.

Emilie: *whispering* I know that feeling... *looks at Vivo*

Vivo: tragic. Anyways—

Dancarino: I'm an invisible spoonbill. No one knows I'm alive. Especially Valentina.

They looked at a beautiful spoonbill which Emilie guessed was Valentina. Vivo looked like he didn't care at all.

Dancarino: Valentina's looking at me, isn't she?

Vivo: yeah

Dancarino: nobody knows I know you guys. You guys don't know me. Good luck finding your friend, bye!

Vivo: ah! Wait! Get out of there. Have you tried telling her how you feel?

Dancarino: *gasp* no I can't tell her I'm scared.

Vivo: No, we heard this song before. It doesn't end well. C'mon, I'll coach you through it. Then you'll help us find our friend. Deal?

Dancarino: okay. Deal.

They go towards Valentina

Vivo: now, introduce yourself.

Dancarino: hi. You're Dancarino. I mean I'm... I'm Dancarino.

Valentina: Hmm. Enchanted.

Dancarino: no. Back to my hole.

Vivo: no, no, no. Focus. Smile and compliment her.

Dancarino: uh, Valentina.

Vivo: you got this.

Dancarino: your eyes are like two huge pools—no, bayous in your face.

Valentina: bayous!? In my face?

Vivo and Emilie: *groaning* oh, no...

Valentina: that's the nicest thing anyone's ever said about my— *screams*

She fell.

Valentina: got a frog. In my throat.

She spits the frog out

Valentina: Sorry, Gary

Gary rolls his eyes and left as Dancarino chuckles

Vivo: oh, they're perfect for each other.

Valentina: oh, Dancarino. You have such a handsome plumage. It's nice for my eye... uh, bayous...to look at, because they're actually my eyes! *chuckles*

Vivo: this is going strangely well. Now, take her hand.

They try to take each other's hand but fails

Valentina: Ow!

Dancarino: oh, sorry. Oh!

Valentina: I'm so sorry!

Dancarino: no,no,no. It's fine. I have another eye, it's totally great.

With some effort they managed to put their beaks together

Vivo: Now, fly away together.

Dancarino and Valentina: love's gonna pick you up and never put you down

Vivo: perfect.

Emilie joined Vivo on the tree. Then they realized that Dancarino was supposed to help them

Vivo: wait! You were supposed to help us! Come back! We had a deal! We had a deal!!

They fell and water splashed thanks to it
