The next day, Bird Island is shown in ruins as Red walks past the destruction. He sees two parents mourning for their stolen children and a mother comforting another mother when he passed by the destroyed daycare. Red approached the beach with Chuck and Bomb, still blaming himself not only for letting the eggs get taken, but also Stella. All the birds went to the beach as Judge Peckinpah approached Red and said, "Mr. Red!" Red looks down at Peckinpah and was ready to face any consequences, but Peckinpah lowers his hat and asks, "What do we do now?" Red was caught off-guard by that and questioned, "Wait, hold on. You're asking me?" Peckinpah continued, "You knew. You tried to tell us, but we didn't listen. I didn't listen."

Poppy steps forward and said, "Red, we need a leader." "What do we do?" Matilda ask. Red looked bewildered and said, "Wait a minute. I'm not a leader." Chuck stepped in and said, "Okay. Pigs stole our kids, Gale betrayed all of us, and they kidnapped Stella. That sucks."

"Made all you guys looked like idiots. You know what we got to do? We start replacing those kids." The female birds gaze in shock as Chuck licks his eyebrows and said, "Ladies, get busy! We're going to be laying some eggs tonight!" If Stella was still here, she'd smack him before Red stops Chuck and said, "No. No, stop. No no... We're not going to replace those kids. We're gonna get them and Stella back."

"How are we going to do that?" Matilda ask, which Red answered, "What do you mean how? The pigs already showed us how." He points at a floating wood trail on the ocean and said, "That, is where they went! And, so that, is where we are going!" Peckinpah spoke, "But how do we get from here to there? I'm not aquatic, in the least." Red answered, "Well, uh, you know, uh. We're gonna build our own boat."

The crowd was shocked of that and one asked what he was talking about until Red said, "They stole your kids and your friend. No. They stole OUR kids and our friend. I mean, who does that? Have you ever stolen any one's children or friend? Huh?" He points at Eva, "Have you?" He points at the Hug Trader, "I mean, you look like you would."

"And you know what? I'm a little bit angry. Correction. I'm really angry. And I don't think I'm the only one." The crowd agreed as he continued, "Come on, we're birds! We're descended from dinosaurs!" The crowd cheers, "We're not supposed to be nice! Right?"

A pink Hatchling named Petunia roars like a Tyrannosaurus rex and smiled, proving Red's point, "Uh. Yeah, point-point made. Who else here is angry?" "I am!" The crowd yelled as Red continued, "Yeah, you are! We're getting our kids and Stella back, and I don't need any... calm, detach, happy birds. Not gonna help us. Don't need it. I need some angry flocking birds."

The crowd cheers as Red said, "You hear me! Now, who's angry?!" The crowd yelled again and he said, "Well, let's go! Bring me everything that floats." Everybody began to work on building a boat while Terence teaches some of the birds to be angry. They gathered up every boxes, TNT, even setting up the slingshot and using the banner as a sail. As soon as the boat is completed with Chuck tying it up to keep it stable, everybody climbed on the boat and set sail for Piggy Island to rescue the eggs and Stella. Red looks ahead and muttered, "Don't worry, Stella. I'm on my way."
