Chase Out the Red Dragon
Johnny Yin Yang needs a costume in order to celebrate the year of the Dragon at his Chinese restaurant, so Mordy decides to help him find one. He steals an alligator from the zoo and dresses it up! Unfortunately the animal gets away from him and spreads panic throughout the town... Who better to slay the dragon than Talis, an aspirant knight from the Middle Ages?
Return the Honour to the Lady of Percival
At the races, able squire Talis persuades Pat to put her money on a horse called Percival. The horse wins, but Talis inadvertently knocks out both Percival and his jockey! To uphold the honour of Lady Pat, Talis, astride Gumbo, takes the place of the indisposed horse and rider. But he soon finds out that a modern day race meeting is quite different from a medieval tournament!
Deliver Thine Kingdom from the Assailants
To the children's great displeasure, their favourite play space is about to be turned into an office block. They desperately start a petition, hoping to alert the public to this injustice. Talis, however, sees things very differently. For him it's a question of driving the invaders out of the children's kingdom!
Chase the Brigands from Avalon

Unfortunately, while the family is on the train, Aunt Agatha arrives at the Field's house. Talis, whose task is to protect Gwinny, takes Aunt Agatha for a brigand and refuses to let her in! A confrontation is inevitable...

Save the Silver Palace

This time, it really will be a tragedy! The theatre will be empty! But for Talis, no battle is ever lost until it's over. His tactic: to destroy the station's broadcasting satellite with his catapult!
Retrieve the Exile's Cart
The Field family set off on a caravan holiday. Talis is convinced that the Fields have been banished by Arthur King, the mayor of Purlieu. A bitter injustice! Unbeknownst to the Field's our aspirant knight swears to bring the exiles home, at any price! And he lacks neither courage nor cunning...
Warn Your Hosts of the Impending Famine
Pat Field organises a party in Purlieu Park to celebrate the birthday of her daughter Gwinny. Seeing the stock of provisions, Talis thinks the Fields are preparing for a famine - he's seen enough back in his own time – and naturally enough goes hunting in Purlieu park. Officer Bean has a hard time making him understand that these days, you can't just hunt wherever you like!
