Bungle, Zippy, George and Geoffrey want to pick some apples from the tree in their garden, but Geoffrey can't reach up high enough. They all think of different ways of how Geoffrey can reach up high enough to pick the apples. Later, Bungle paints a picture of a house and garden, but can't paint the grass as he doesn't have any green paint. But Geoffrey shows Bungle that by mixing yellow paint and blue paint he can make green paint. John Styles tells the story of "Mr and Mrs Marzipan's Problem". Bungle can't get his painting to stand up on display, but Zippy comes up with an idea to help him. Freddy sings a musical story about "The Enormous Turnip" and the others play the parts of the characters in the song.
