Summary

Dora and Boots visit the three little pigs who live in a pig pen.

Recap

Dora and Boots visit a farm with three little pigs. The pigs were affectionate to Dora and Boots, with the latter naming one of the pigs "Oinky." Dora and Boots then gave the three little pigs a blue ribbon. Dora and Boots stop Swiper from swiping the blue ribbons, but the gate gets left open, causing the pigs to flee. Map tells them that one little pig went to the haystacks; one little pig went to the barn; and Oinky went to the apple tree. Dora and Boots went searching for the three little pigs. After finding the first little pig, Boots tries to carry her, but she was too heavy, so he and Dora put her in the wagon. The wagon then rolls on its own, prompting Dora and Boots to shout "abre!" to Tico, causing him to quickly push the gate open. Later, at the barn, Dora and Boots then find the second pig behind the barrels. En route to the apple tree, Dora and Boots could not get the wagon out of the mud, so the viewer at home helps the wagon get pulled out of the mud. They arrive at the apple tree, where Oinky was eating apples and sitting on a branch about to break. After Dora gets a net from Backpack, she hurries over to the apple tree and catches. After stopping Swiper once again, Dora and Boots take the three little pigs back home to their pig pen.
