Mr. Beetle is back for another tale. In the last year, Mr. Beetle has skyrocketed to fame. He is known throughout the land as being inadvertently hilarious and somehow simultaneously boring. He makes bugs throughout the region laugh until it hurts, then he puts them to sleep with the dullness of his storylines. Gwen convinces Mr. Beetle to take a break from his adoring fans. What will become of Mr. Beetle once he is no longer immersed in the 25th branch's "beetle mania"?! Will one of his listeners be eaten by an ominously dangling spider? You'll just have to listen to find out.

That is, until he discovers a surprise gift Delphine has left behind. It does not feel like a gift at all; it feels like yet another task to be completed. And when a knock comes at the door of his hut, he is presented with a unique opportunity that seems to offer a solution to all his problems. Listen in to find out whether Brambleton's plans turn out as expected.

Usually, Lambden sailed through the winter months with nary a sniffle. And it seemed he would do so again, but just as the doldrums of winter gave way to the blossoms of spring, he developed a sore throat, a fever, and extreme exhaustion. He was undeniably ill, which meant there was no way he could board the Sleep Train. How will Lambden ever get through the long, dark night? You'll have to listen to find out.
