Walter and Manaaki are teenage takahe in a predator-free sanctuary. Manaaki is bored, and curious about the outside world.
She encourages her friend to escape with her outside the predator fence. Manaaki wants to see a rat, a roaring road, a stoat, a cat, a dog … but Walter is not so sure he wants to see those scary things. However when they do, Walter finds it exciting, whereas Manaaki is scared and wants to return home.
Walter encourages him to stay out just a little bit longer, and they experience more adventures. Then, one day, they notice people creeping up on them. The takahe let themselves be caught and taken home, where they’re content to stay … for a while.
