Summary
When Sofia the First and her royal family moves into Disney Junior Town, Kwazii finds himself falling in love with her and his friends decide to help him learn how to rollerskate, but then he learns to just be himself when he has to save Jake from falling into a rocky pit.

Plot
The episode begins at a late night at the Octopod where Kwazii, Peso, and Captain Barnacles are watching a boring but romantic black-and-white movie called “Be Mine Tonight”. After the movie ends, Peso wipes his happy tears with a tissue, while behind him, Kwazii is sleeping in his beanbag chair and Barnacles is yawning. He keeps wiping another teardrop away from his eyes with another tissue and Kwazii meows in disgust before groaning and stretching his arms.

Barnacles nudges him on the shoulder and whispers his name as Peso looks depressed by his (Kwazii) dislike of romance. Kwazii snaps and huffs at Peso as he turns his head away and folds his arms, and Barnacles gets up to his feat and stretches his arms as he pats Kwazii on the shoulder. Peso glares at them and frowns a little, but he knows Barnacles was right and stops glaring. Kwazii scowls harshly saying it is all Aphrodite, the goddess of love’s fault, glaring back at him, and he (Peso) glares back at him again. Peso tries to calm down Kwazii by flashing him a smile and Barnacles reminds him it’s almost the first day of spring and also the first day of romance. Kwazii rolls his eyes, snickers as he sticks his tongue out in disgust, inserts it back in his mouth, shrugs, turns away, and crosses his arms as Peso shakes his head and shifts his eyes.

Peso quotes to Kwazii in a dramatic tone and he feels dazed with all the sparkles dancing around him like little fairies and finally snaps to attention as he shooes the sparkles away and shakes his head. He rolls his eyes again, groans, and lets out a humph. He grunts angrily as he leaves the game room and goes to his room to get some sleep. Meanwhile, Peso and Barnacles are still in the game room talking about a new friend who will be moving to their town tomorrow. Peso gasps in surprise as Barnacles replies to him, chuckling as he says everyone has to give her and her family some special gifts for their welcome. Peso is still excited he hops up and down and they both laugh.

Meanwhile in the hallway, Kwazii walks to his bedroom without hearing what Barnacles said back in the game room because he was still angry by what Peso said about falling in love with someone. Before he can finish a sentence, his ears perk up as he passes by Shellington’s apprentice Sasha and his (Kwazii) long lost sister Ribbon. The girls greet him as he waves back at Ribbon and smiles back at her. Sasha has him escort her to her bedroom and he glares at her and rolls his eyes. He and Ribbon both know Sasha was being a coquette and was trying to flirt with him again.

Kwazii finally speaks up and answers harshly and Ribbon adds to his sentence, shifting her eyes, asking, and putting her paws on her hips. He scowls at her and he and Ribbon frown at her as she (Sasha) tosses and twirls her hair around her paw. Ribbon shakes her head and groans, putting her paw on her forehead and grunting her teeth. Sasha replies to Kwazii in a flirty tone again and blows a kiss at him. He shakes his head in disgust and swats the flying kiss away with his paw. Sasha just giggles and Ribbon rolls her eyes again. Kwazii grunts and frowns as he goes to his bedroom, which is right next to Barnacles’, in the bedroom pod and finally goes to sleep.

The next morning on the first day of spring, everyone in Disney Junior Town is crowding at Main Street with big gift boxes and bags in their hands, talking to each other excitedly—well, everyone except Kwazii, who is at the Disney Junior Town Skate Park practicing his new skateboarding moves. Just as he is about to do a tail stand on his skateboard in midair, he suddenly sees the crowd of people at Main Street, so he skateboards there and takes off his helmet and pads to check everything out. He goes into the crowd, slipping between two or three people to clear the way and politely saying a few “sorrys”, “excuse mes”, “coming throughs”, and a “what’s going on” on their behalf. It is like an obstacle game called ‘Slide Through Everyone’ as he finally makes it to the end of the crowd to see his friends Captain Barnacles, Peso, Doc, Lambie, Stuffy, Jake, Cubby, Izzy, Skully, Lucky, Cadpig, Rolly, and Spot, who also have gift boxes in their hands and paws like everyone else in the crowd.

When Kwazii asks everyone about what is going on, they reply to him that a new girl and her family are moving here in Disney Junior Town and Izzy says the new girl’s name is Sofia. His ears perk and he starts smiling, also saying he hasn’t known that.

Captain Barnacles and Peso told Kwazii that they've been talking about it last night after he went to his room to sleep, just as Stuffy noticed Kwazii's empty paws and asked him where his gift for the royal family is. Kwazii slapped his forehead, forgetting that he needed a git for the royal family, so peso decides to help him find out as he spotted a snowdrop flower nearby.

Peso takes out a little gardening shovel and a pot to put the snowdrop flower in and gives it to Kwazii, who thanks him and apologizes to him about last night and that he owes him. With a forgiving smile, Peso says to Kwazii that he forgives him and said that he did the same thing and never should've said those silly romance things last night, as the two Octonauts smiled and laughed, and Captain Barnacles smiled at them.

Just then, the sound of a trumpet got everyone's attention as they saw a carriage, followed by four forest animals; a bunny rabbit, a squirrel, a blue bird, and a red bird, and five other carriages with maids, butlers, and a royal cook. Then, as the first carriage stops, out came the royal family. The first was a little girl with beautiful brown curly hair, sky blue eyes, and a sweet smile that Kwazii couldn't take his eyes off. She was beautiful, very beautiful, even when she did a curtsy as she greeted the whole crowd of people which had Kwazii's cheeks turning more pink than ever.

Jake notices and snaps his fingers in front of his friend's face, then asks him if he was okay. When he was out of the trance, Kwazii shook his head and replied to Jake that he's alright while clutching the flower pot with the snowdrop still in his paws, but Jake can see that they were shaky.

Then, the castle steward named Baileywick, clapped his hands and called out to everyone to line up and give their gifts to the royal family. As everyone did, they bowed or curtsied before giving their gifts to the royal family, who thanked them for the gifts they received. After the last resident gave his gift away, Kwazii was the last to give his snowdrop flower to Sofia. He hoped she didn't notice his shaky paws as he introduced himself to her, in a shaky tone.

Sofia looked down at the snowdrop flower and thanks Kwazii for it, before planting a kiss on his cheek. When he felt the kiss on his cheek, Kwazii's whole face turned completely pink, his knees became shaky, and his heart was beating as fast as a race car! While Sofia's bluebird friend who was named Mia was sniffing in the flower, Sofia thanks Kwazii again before joining her family back into the carriage that was going to their new castle.

After saying goodbye to Sofia, Kwazii felt kind of strange when his heart still raced, his tail went into the shape of a heart, and he had that dreamy look in his eyes.

The next day, after Sofia and her family moved into town, Captain Barnacles, Peso, and their friends were at the skateboarding park, showing off their new tricks, but then, Jake turned to Kwazii who was holding a daisy in his paw, as Jake was confused and he asked his friends what was up with the Octonauts’ lieutenant as Captain Barnacles and Peso had no idea. Kwazii had been acting like that since Sofia arrived.

With a sigh, Kwazii says that he thinks that he’s in love. Looking at each other with curiosity, Barnacles and Peso got off their wheels and took off their helmets and pads then went to their friend to ask him who he was in love with, which made Kwazii blush and explains that he’s in love with some girl that moved into their town yesterday just as Peso and Captain Barnacles begin to guess who that girl is, and Kwazii blushed even more. Jake rushes over and elbows Kwazii to spill the beans and tell them who that lucky girl is as Kwazii lets out a sigh and admits that he’s in love with Sofia, much to everyone’s surprise.

Kwazii shrugs and says that it all happened just like Peso said, so it must be love, and he asked if that was right. Cadpig And Lambie were so happy for the pirate cat and said that it was so romantic as Kwazii stops blushing, shifts his eyes, and asks what he should do now that he’s in love. With a smile, Cadpig tells Kwazii to show Sofia how he really feels, then wraps her paws around his waist, and tells him to be romantic while hugging him too tightly. But Lucky suggests to Kwazii to act and play it cool, while Spit says that Kwazii should impress her, like show her he’s a pirate cat with meanings, show her with gifts. Then, Peso suggests to Kwazii that he should make Sofia laugh and thought that maybe she has a good sense of humor while Lambie suggests that Kwazii should give Sofia some things that girls and even princesses like, like flowers, or candy, or toys, or jewelry, or anything else she might like.

But Barnacles wasn’t sure if all that was gonna help Kwazii win Sofia’s affection. Sitting right next to Kwazii, Captain Barnacles suggests to Kwazii to just be himself, let Sofia love him the way he is, what he does, and how he acts. And who knows? Maybe Kwazii can find something he and Sofia have in common.

However, Stuffy and Lucky disagreed with that and told Barnacles that that’s the last thing Kwazii will do as Jake tells them that Kwazii being himself has got to work and Izzy agrees since being yourself always works, hoping that it will convince Stuffy and Lucky to agree with that.

Hesitating, Kwazii’s ears drooped and he tells his friends that he doesn’t know if all those suggestions from his friends will help him win Sofia’s heart as he asks them how will they know all that stuff will work anyway.

Chuckling, Captain Barnacles pats Kwazii on the back looking confident, and tells him to not worry, for that it will all work, as he gives him an encouraging smile, and Peso adds to Kwazii to trust his friends, while trying to encourage him too. Kwazii smiled back, finally looking confident. He knew he could count on his friends.

The next morning, Captain Barnacles lead Jake and Kwazii to the Disney Junior Town Rollerskating Dome just as Kwazii asked them why they were going here. Turning to face Kwazii, Jake explains to him that he and Captain Barnacles saw Sofia come here this morning and they want to take Kwazii with them after a quick breakfast, and once they're inside, Kwazii will get to hang out with Sofia and get to know more about her, plus Captain Barnacles added that he (Kwazii) will have a splendid time in the dome because rollerskating is as fun as everyone realizes.

Then at the ticket booth, an excited man sees Captain Barnacles and says "Hey King B!" to him. Chuckling, Captain Barnacles greets the man, who was named Kevin, and orders three passes into the dome for him, Jake, and Kwazii. When Kwazii asked "King B?", Jake explains to him that that nickname is what everyone calls Captain Barnacles in the dome as they entered inside, and everyone turned to see Captain Barnacles and say "Wow! That's King B!", "Oh he's so graceful", and "It's King B! It's really him!" Just then, some kids came up to Captain Barnacles to ask him give them his "royal signature."

While Captain Barnacles gave the last kid his signature, Kwazii and Jake had their rollerskates on their feet already. Kwazii finds the rollerskates comfy and says to himself that he's "a pirate cat on wheels!" as Jake and Captain Barnacles smiled and he said, "Brilliant!"

But as Kwazii was standing, he was already having trouble with his rollerskates as he became wobbly and fell flat on his face. He says that this was gonna be harder than he thought, as Captain Barnacles tells him to not worry and that he'll do better once they get on the rink. Rolling over to Kwazii, Jake and Captain Barnacles helped him up and get themselves on the rink.

On the rink, everyone was skating like an expert, but Kwazii kept on flailing, having trouble keeping his balance, and finally, he crashed right into the wall of the rink!

After skating on the rink, Kwazii, Captain Barnacles, and Jake were at the snack bar, but they could see that Kwazii was still have trouble on his rollerskates. Jake tells him to not worry and that he's doing a good job for a first try as Kwazii manages to stop in front of him and Captain Barnacles to tell them that he just wants to look cool in the rollerskates before Sofia sees him.

Captain Barnacles tells him to calm down and relax, which was hard for Kwazii, and adds that he has plenty of time, and besides, it's not like Sofia was going to show up at any moment right now. Just then, Jake spots Sofia and says hi to her as Kwazii went stiff and falls face flat on the floor when Sofia rolled over and said hi to Jake and Captain Barnacles. Then, she noticed Kwazii lying on the floor and asks Jake who his friend was as she points down at Kwazii.

Jake tells Sofia that that's Kwazii and Sofia says hello to him and adds that it's nice to see him again, then she asked him what he was doing lying on the floor. Stammering, Kwazii could feel his cheeks starting to redden again as he told Sofia that he was exercising as he stretched his arms and clapped his paws together. Just then, the announcer tells everyone that the song that will be played is Sadie's Holkins, so it's girls choice to choose who gets to rollerskate with who on the rink. Sofia looks down at Kwazii again and asks him if he would like to skate with her. When he heard her asked him that, Kwazii heard himself stammering again as he tried to say yes. However, Jake beat him to it by telling Sofia that he'd be happy to, but also says that he and Kwazii have to go to the bathroom first.

Gritting his teeth together, Kwazii tried to protest to Jake that he doesn't wanna go to the bathroom, but Jake tells him that he does as he turned to Captain Barnacles and Sofia with a grin and a nervous laugh, and tells them that he and Kwazii will be right back.

Back on the rink, Sofia and Kwazii were skating together. Sofia looks at Kwazii and says to him that he's a really great skater as Kwazii thanks her and Sofia replies to him that it's like his rollerskates are not touching the ground, which they weren't because Jake was holding Kwazii up with a rope attached to a fishing pole so that way it will be like Kwazii is floating on the rink instead of skating on it.

Captain Barnacles then hears the announcer telling everyone to clear the rink for the star show, as Sofia, Jake, and Kwazii got off the rink and Jake helps Kwazii untie the rope around his waist.

As everyone settled in and was ready to watch, Captain Barnacles stayed on the rink to show off his rollerskating prowess. As Kwazii was watching with Jake and Sofia, he heard Sofia say that Captain Barnacles is amazing, making Kwazii jealous and think that his captain is not that good, so he decides to do a bigger stunt, hoping that it would impress Sofia.

Walking up to the announcer, Kwazii asked him what's the most difficult stunt as the announcer tells him that the obstacle course will be the most difficult. Then without thinking, Kwazii tells him that he'd like to try it. The announcer says that's okay as he presses the red button nearest to him and coming up from the floor was a giant obstacle course with the most deadliest hazards and hard obstacles.

Looking up to it, Kwazii begins to sweat and hesitate. He thought about not doing the obstacle course asked himself what would Sofia think, and what would he do. Meanwhile, Captain Barnacles had done his routine as he joined Jake and Sofia and they complimented he for doing an awesome job on the rink. Captain Barnacles thanked them jus when he noticed that Kwazii wasn't with them and he asked where he was. Sofia tells Captain Barnacles that Kwazii is going to do the obstacle course, much to his shock as he asked them if Kwazii was crazy.

Up on the top of the obstacle course, Kwazii suddenly felt dizzy when he looked down and decides that maybe he should just go back down the ladder. Suddenly, he felt himself moving and then, down the obstacle course he went! He went over, under, left to right, and through the obstacles without getting hurt, then he jumped over some more until he finally reached the finish line and rolled passed his friends, who cheered on him. However, Jake noticed that Kwazii couldn't stop when he saw him go through the doors, and he was heading downhill all the way... to the Disney Junior Town Rocky Pit!

Quickly, Jake puts on his helmet and rollerskates out onto the streets to save his best friend before he fell into that pit. On the car-filled streets, Kwazii was out of control as he screamed downhill and cried for help. Right behind him, Jake was picking up speed until he caught up to Kwazii and grabbed his paw, then while they were holding onto each other, Jake tries to think of a plan just as Kwazii spots three kids playing on their skateboards up ahead!

Jake saw them too and finally coming up with a plan, he swung Kwazii into a nearby pillow shop that was between a needle shop and a nail shop. Jake was relieved that his friend was safe, but as he turned to see a crane crossing by, it's arm hits him on the head, pushing his helmet down really deep over his eyes, making him unable to see where he was going, and it was hard for him to get it off as he lost control of his rollerskates and like Kwazii, he was rolling downhill towards the rocky pit. Now it was Kwazii's turn to save Jake as he took off his rollerskates and asked one of the kids if he could borrow their skateboard.

The boy with the red skateboard hands it to Kwazii before asking him if he was a little old to ride a skateboard. Kwazii sarcastically replies that he is but he didn't care as he hopped onto the skateboard to save Jake, and the skateboarding girl was impressed by the pirate cat's skateboarding skills.

While Jake was still rolling down the streets and trying to get his helmet off his head, Kwazii riding on the skateboard caught up to him and shouts to him to hold on and that he's coming for him. Jake could hear Kwazii but he couldn't see where he was as Kwazii shouts to him again to not worry and that he'll come up with a plan. And he hopes that it works!

Then, spotting a fire hydrant on the left side of the sidewalk, Kwazii held out his paw to it as his ocean pearl bracelet did it's hydrokinesis power to make the hydrant explode with water and Kwazii shifts it into a watery wall that might stop Jake. But instead, Jake went through it and he got soaking wet! Kwazii had to think of another creative plan and fast, because Jake is only a few miles away from that pit and he could fall into it at any moment! After racking his brain, Kwazii looks at the alleyway which might be a shortcut to the rocky pit and finally comes up with another idea, as he skateboards into it, bringing the giant floating blob of water from the fire hydrant with him.

On the streets, Jake was still rolling downhill as cars screeched to a stop when they saw him coming by. Meanwhile, in the alleyway, Kwazii and the floating water blob were almost at the pit as Kwazii spotted it in front of him. He knew that the alleyway was a shortcut to the rocky pit! Now it's time for the next part of Kwazii's plan.

Holding up his paw, then lowering it to face his palm towards the pit, the water blob followed his arm's movement and went over him to drop down into the pit, filling it up with water. Kwazii grabbed onto the front of the skateboard and jumped over the water-filled rocky pit as he skidded to a stop, hoping that it will stop Jake from falling in. Finally, when Jake approached the pit, he fell into the water and floated back into the surface and to his safety.

Letting out a heavy sigh of relief, Kwazii says that was a close one just when he heard Sofia's voice behind him and turned to face her, whom she had a big smile on her face and told Kwazii what he did was amazing and that he saved Jake. Laughing shyly, Kwazii replies that Jake saved him first, then confesses to Sofia that he's not very good at rollerskating like her, Captain Barnacles, and Jake and the truth was that he just wanted to impress her.

Still smiling at Kwazii, Sofia tells him that he is a nice pirate and a brave Octonaut too, that's what impresses her. Then she compliments on his water magic and his skateboarding skills, which made Kwazii blush and thank Sofia, then adds that his ocean pearl bracelet gives him the power to control water and his friend Jake taught him how to ride a skateboard when he first got his own, and he asks Sofia if she was interested in skateboarding while Jake was getting out of the water pit, soaking wet and spitting water. After he recovered, he saw Kwazii and Sofia being together and smiled at them as he got out of the water. He was impressed that Kwazii was finally talking with Sofia.

Sofia replies that she loves sports but never skateboarded before, and she asks Kwazii if he can teach her. Smiling back, Kwazii lets Sofia ride on the skateboard with him and they rode off to the skateboarding park.

As he saw they go, Captain Barnacles appears and Jake turns to him to tell him that he was right about Kwazii being himself. It looked like he and Sofia were really made for each other, and they've found something they have in common; they both love sports and trying new things.
