Synopsis
Wendy, John and Michael arrive in Neverland. Before Peter can take them home, Hook begins firing cannons at him. As Wendy heads after Tinkerbell to the tree house, the fairy tells the lost boys to shoot the 'Wendybird' down. Tootles hits her, realizes that he has shot down a girl, and faces Peter's wrath (...well, it's about as angry as Peter ever gets). It turns out that Wendy is unharmed, however, because the arrow hit straight into the acorn necklace Peter gave her. The Darlings slowly become accustomed to living in the tree house, while the lost boys are mesmerized by how a good a mother Wendy is. Neverland seems all fun and games, until the pirates get close to the tree house at night. The lost boys prepare to defend themselves, but Peter has the territory covered.
