Plot
Patrick walks straight through Double D's screen door letting an insect into the house which somehow gets itself lodged in Zack's throat- disabling his voice! Double D equips his pal with a little bell to ring when he wants attention, but Double D and Patrick can't understand what Zack wants and so when Rolf claims he can Zack is more a less at his mercy. For Zack a nightmare day follows - foreign foods in the shape of glistening sausages and squid; synchronized swimming with his 2 pals (with plenty of dunking), a horrific ride on the "Unicycle of Doom" and finally the ultimate challenge - to face his greatest fears - none of which he actually requested in the first place! Zack manages to escape his friends' clutches eventually but things are still not working out for him, he gets his voice back whilst strung up by his shirt but it's no good yelling out for help, everyone thinks it's all in their minds!
