So Leo goes and check out the mail box and it shows that there's no mail in the mail box and Leo told monarch butterfly mail carrier about the empty mail box near the musical tree of many colors. Leo knew that there are four stops while making their way to the invitation tree and the monarch butterfly left the butterfly invitation in the wrong mail box and the whole team knew that the mail could be in Niagara Falls, between Canada, and New York State, United States of America, The United Nations in New York City, New York, The Oklahoma Cave in Oklahoma, or the Barn near Houston in Texas. Leo agrees that they've got a mission about flying to all four butterfly mail boxes while June told about finding butterfly's missing migration invitation as Annie mentioned about help the butterfly getting to his migration family party. So they all head to Rocket, buckle their seatbelts, doing the pat sequence and blast off.

Soon, they enter to the Musical Roller Coaster once again to find a number of the track that sounds allegro and it's in the number 1 track as they made to the Niagara River and Rocket landed at the Niagara River and soon, they saw the sign of crescendo, because the music gets louder and harder as they made it to the Niagara Falls and Rocket is on the edge of the Niagara Falls and thus, Rocket deploys his paddle reversers to pull back to safety. Soon, they saw the first butterfly mail box and June buckles her seatbelt as Rocket retracts his paddle reverser and fly down the Niagara Falls and Rocket floats down the Niagara River and made to the first mail box. But Quincy knew that the first mail box is empty. So Rocket puts out his display screen and retracts the Niagara Falls picture and Annie knew that the butterfly's invitation letter is on one of the other boxes. Leo knew that they need to go to the United Nations in New York City, New York. So Rocket blasts off the Niagara Falls.

Soon, they made it to New York City, New York and thus, Rocket and his team must go to the top of the Statue of Liberty to see the great view of Manhattan as they have to find United Nations. And so, they landed at the international butterfly garden and the whole team head out Rocket. Soon, they saw the second mail box and they head to the second mail box. But when they got to the second mail box, all of the international butterflies are arguing and fighting which the butterfly doesn't liked. So Annie told the butterfly to sing a song to stop all of the international butterfly from arguing, fighting and violence. So Leo puts out his baton and conducts to help the butterfly sing to stop the argument of the international butterfly. But all of the international butterflies didn't hear butterfly's song, because they're arguing and fighting too much. So the whole team had to sing the special song to help all of the international butterflies from arguing and fighting. Soon, all of the international butterflies stop arguing, fighting and listen as Annie sang to ask all of the international butterflies to stop arguing and thus, they all sang ode to joy and it did worked. So Quincy opened the mail box and the mail box at the United Nations is also empty. So they all head back to Rocket and he puts his display screen and retracts the United Nations picture and he knew that there are two places that they need to go, the Oklahoma cave in Oklahoma, and the barn near Houston in Texas. So they blast off once again and left New York City in New York as they fly around the Appalachian Mountains and the Gateway Arch from Saint Louis, Missouri.

Soon, they arrived at the Oklahoma Cave in Oklahoma and they all knew that there are bats and spiders. So they all head outside Rocket while saying Bats and spiders, spiders and bats. Quincy hopes that the mailbox isn't inside the cave and it reveals that the box is at the entrance of the cave. Later, the butterfly heads inside the cave to rescue his friends, who are caught in the Navajo spider web inside the Oklahoma cave and the whole team didn't notice that the butterfly flew inside the cave as Leo knew that the mail box is outside of the cave and the whole team told that they need to find butterfly. So they all knew that they all had to go inside the Oklahoma Cave and Quincy knew a feeling about the dark. So Rocket turns on his lights to see the entrance of the Oklahoma Cave better. So, they're all going inside the Oklahoma Cave while saying bats and spiders, spiders and bats, soon, they made to the Navajo Woven maze and Quincy heard the butterfly and Annie knew that there are two paths: a red path and a black path. So they all try the red path, and tried to listen to the butterfly but the red path is where the bats went, so they all try the black path and listen again and it did sound the butterfly, but Quincy listens that they're Navajo bats are coming and they all run after the bats! Then, they climb the ladder that there are now 3 paths: The Red one, the white one and the black one. The black and white path have bats, so the team took the red path and slide down the line and made it to the butterfly and Annie knew that butterfly flew inside the cave, because butterfly came to rescue his friends. Soon, they listen and they heard a Navajo Spider and Quincy attempt to save the other butterflies. Then, Leo told them to distract the Navajo Spider, so Quincy can get the butterflies out of the web by clap like the butterflies and soon, the Navajo Spider is out of the way and Quincy pulls the Navajo Spider web and thus, all of the other butterflies are free. Then Leo knew to get out of the Navajo Cave before they ran into the Navajo Spider or Navajo Bats. Unfortunately, they all saw the Navajo Spider and the Navajo Bats and they all head out of the Navajo Maze and all the way out of the Oklahoma Cave. As the whole team and all of the butterflies left the Navajo Maze, the Navajo Spider and the Navajo Bats surrender themselves and head back into the Navajo Maze and thus, the whole team and all of the butterflies made it out safely. Leo knew that those three butterflies had invitation to the family party as Annie knew that a trio of butterflies who teased the butterfly and they apologize to him as he forgives the trio of butterfly. Quincy told a trio of butterflies to see them at the migration party in Angangueo, Mexico and then check the mail box to see if the mail is in the box at the Oklahoma Cave in Oklahoma. But the mail isn't at the Oklahoma Cave either. So they all back to Rocket and Rocket put his display screen and retract the Oklahoma Cave picture and Leo knew that there is one more place that they need to go which is the barn near Houston, Texas and Rocket retract his display screen. So they all blast off and left Oklahoma Cave.

Soon, they made it to the barn near Houston, Texas and the team notice that the cows had a cow conference as the cows try to sing a special song about the butterfly invitation. Soon, they saw the missing invitation to the Butterfly migration party. But the cows are blocking their way to the mail box because they're trying to sing the butterfly invitation song and the cow can't give them the invitation until they learn the butterfly migration song. So they need a conductor to moo the butterfly migration song all together. Annie knew that Leo is the great conductor and they all cheered and applaud Leo as Leo took a bow and walk onto the haystack with a metal bucket upside down. But first, Annie tells Leo that he had a stain from his glasses, so she can clean them up and Leo says thanks. Then, Leo taps his baton on the metal bucket and saying "Psst!" to the cows to give them their attention on mooing the butterfly migration song. So Leo conducts the cows while singing the moo song to the tune of ode to joy and then, the whole team joins the moo song. Soon, Leo conducts the cow and the cow sang ode to joy and soon, they all cheered and applauded to Leo and Quincy knew that the cows learned how to moo the song as Annie knew that Leo is great a conducting the cow. Then, one of the cow got the butterfly invitation mail from the mail box and handed the invitation mail to Annie and Annie said thank you to the cow and Annie knew that the butterfly got his invitation to the migration party in Angangueo, Mexico. So they all head back to Rocket while saying good bye to the cows and blast off and Quincy thanks the cow for taking care of the invitation and blast off.

Soon, they made it to Angangueo, Mexico and landed at the entrance of the invitation party and the whole team headed out of Rocket one last time and few of the butterflies dropped off their invitation mail at the bin near the entrance. Then, the whole team got their invitation mail out and drop them in the bin while saying thank you to the butterfly. Soon, they saw lots and lots of monarch butterflies who live on the tree because all of the monarch butterflies fly to the invitation tree every year for migration as June mentioned. Annie told butterfly that butterfly got a big family. Soon, a trio of butterflies from the cave got a medal and put the medal on the butterfly for being so brave of saving their lives.

Transcript

Trivia

 * This episode is aired by celebrating the 96th anniversary of the Mexican Revolution in 1910.
 * This is the last episode to air in 2006.
 * This is the second half of Our Huge Adventure.
 * This is the last episode to use music from Baby Shakespeare.
 * This is the final episode of Season 1 before the premiere of Season 2 and before Annie changes her new clothes and using her new microphone.
 * This is the third time a Little Einstein member makes an angry face. Leo makes an angry face when he says that they all have to go in the cave to save Butterfly spooky or not as in the 1 hour version, June is angry that she is going to tell Quincy for not paying attention for finding a path that sounds allegro from the Musical Roller Coaster. Annie makes an angry face when she says "You scared me!", if they are using their anger from the first time of the 60 minute version.
 * Before conducting the cows, the 60 minute version of the second part says that Annie has to clean Leo's glasses, because it has a stain. It's very odd of what Leo looks like without his glasses.

Errors
During the Pat Sequence, there are a couple errors:


 * During the "Buckle your seatbelts" part: When the team says "Seatbelts buckled!", Leo's seatbelt is suddenly unbuckled. Also, Little Butterfly is in Rocket, and has a seat for some reason.
 * During the "June is patting... Quincy is patting... Annie is patting..." part: When June's patting, the camera is shifted slightly to the right. Because of this, June is to the left of the screen instead of center, and you can see Rocket's controls.
 * During the "Faster!" part: Instead of frowning like any other Pat Sequences, Leo is seen smiling! After when we see Rocket's jets fire up, Rocket is seen shaking in a different location in the area; on a hill instead of under the Tree Of Many Colors.
 * During the "Blast Off!" part: When the team says "Blast off!", Leo is WAY OFF in his speaking, making him way off-sync with the rest of them. Also, Annie's seatbelt doesn't have the "buckle" part, leaving only the straps visible. Little Butterfly does not have her seat anymore, unlike the "Seatbelts buckled!" part- she even isn't there!
 * When the team arrive in Houston, Texas, Annie and Quincy have switched their seats.
