Chris travels to Edgars Mission on the outskirts of Melbourne, where he is faced with a very woolly fugitive. Ben Hall is a sheep that was rescued after 5 years on the run, and Chris is shocked at the condition of his heavy coat. The thick, matted wool could be hiding all sorts of health problems.
Chris is visiting remote Christmas Island where he must help a seabird named Bill that is unable to fly. Bill is a rare Abbott’s Booby, and she's missing critical flight feathers. Chris needs to treat Bill's deformed wing, before starting rehabilitation with the young rescue bird.
Tim wants Chris to find out why Jack the koala has suddenly developed nasty bumps all over his face. Chris is so concerned; they take the little 2 year old to the local clinic for an immediate biopsy. When the results come back Tim is astonished to learn that Jack has acne.
