Addy is frustrated that her younger brother Carl will not share a new marble-maze game, so she calms herself with deep breathing and visits her neighbour Stillwater, a giant panda.

Addy realises she should try a different approach with Carl, and instead of taking the game she offers to play it together with him. The two cooperate, steering the maze ball side by side, while Stillwater is heard trying something new of his own.
