Episode summary

Pippa discovers why a quiet cottage has started whistling.

Transcript

Panel 1: Pippa stops beside a cottage and looks up at a whistling drainpipe. Simple musical-note symbols and pale wind lines show the sound.
Pippa: "Who is singing?"

Panel 2: Pippa examines the open lower end of the pipe. A narrow hollow reed is wedged across it, and the wind is blowing through the reed.
Pippa: "Found the singer."

Panel 3: Pippa holds the hollow reed after removing it from the now-clear drainpipe. A curious sparrow wearing a red scarf watches from a flowerpot.
Sparrow: "Will it stop?"

Panel 4: Pippa plays the loose hollow reed as a flute. Musical-note symbols and pale sound lines show its song. The sparrow listens happily beside the now-quiet drainpipe.
Pippa: "Only the plumbing."
