Max wants to play with Emmy and Enrique, but they're working on a whale project together for school. He hopes that a trip to the Dragon Land Carnival will change things, but he finds that once they're there, they still continue to play with each other. He continues to feel left out and even after taking some advice from Quetzal, still can't help but feel like he's unwanted. After asserting himself, having some more fun, and trying some new things, he begins to learn that he's still cared about too and that he and Emmy both have a new friend.
