Koohii Story 1 "I've been sent to chase the wild goose! I'm here at the top of the cliff, and I can hear Mr. T and that tricky turkey down there sniggering about sending me on a search for the wild goose."
Koohii Story 2 "Mr T is sent on a mission to find a wild goose that swallowed some important, top-secret chemicals (they were in a baggie, so he has to find it before it dissolves!). After searching for clues and tracks, he finds it - and backs it up against a cliff. In a heroic move, Mr T jumps off the cliff, grabs the wild goose, and lands on the ground on his back, protecting the volatile wild goose. He then looks at it - wait - this isn't the wild goose, this is a mere turkey! Sent on a wild goose chase!"
