Synopsis

Peter Pan indeed comes looking for his shadow, helped by his faithful fairy Tinkerbell. Wendy wakes up when he starts making a racket, pulling almost all the clothes out of her closet. He is very happy to find it, but cannot reattach it to himself. Tink offers to help with a bar of soap, but even with this "powerful substance", he cannot keep it attached. Peter is completely devastated and starts bawling, until Wendy approaches him. She sews it back on, and the boy gives her an acorn necklace as thanks. Wendy gives him a kiss, but this infuriates Tinkerbell (Tink stays angry at Wendy for about 10 more episodes). Peter teaches the Darlings to fly and takes them to Neverland
