But leave it to Pigeon Jane to devise a plan, making think Hawkback think he's abducting both him and Robin so Hawkback will take them where Van Parakeet is tied up like a turkey. Hawkback tries to clip Pigeon Jane's wing but Robin saves the day and the yolks on Hawkback.
Turns out Van Parakeet and Robin are good eggs after all, and they leave for good, content to just feather their nest from now on!
Now we await the remaining episodes:
"Bird-Foot Violet"
"Silver Wings of Time"
"Forest Green Ducks"
'Brown Eyed Barn Owl"
"Il Toucan Bianco"
"Black Herons" -- AND FINALLY, the just announced FINALE, "BLUE BIRD"
I believe that in "BLUE BIRD" -- we will finally learn the TRUE IDENTITY of ROOSTER JOHN when PIGEON JANE comes beak to beak with BLUE BIRD, going back to the abandoned CBI building and finding Blue Bird's nest, along with Edgar Allen Poe books, cowboy boots, a teapot and CBI Ron clucking around like a chicken.
Blue Bird traps Pigeon Jane and tells him the story of how she has always sought revenge for the chopping down of the tree her Blue Bird family was in, which killed everyone in the nest --- when they cleared the land to build the new California Bird Investigations headquarters. That is why she orchestrated the closing down of the CBI -- to reclaim her ancestral home.
She tells Jane how she took refuge after losing her home and family by joining Visualize and Bret Starling, who encouraged her to take flight to Napa, where she built a new nest above the Napa Police Station, planning her revenge, and developing a male alter ego ROOSTER JOHN. Blue Bird went on to start her own law enforcement mafia, The Poe Association, that she ran from her nest, controlling the lives of thousands with just two words: Raven, Raven
But her true mission was hypnotizing vultures with her birdsong, getting them to do her dirty bird work, finally honing in on one particular bird brain, Napa Sheriff Thomas Mockingbird -- and using him as a sitting duck to exact revenge on the CBI and Pigeon Jane, finally letting him roast for being Rooster John.
Blue Birds relishes her success in fooling everyone, proclaiming that she is the "Queen of Fowl," strutting her stuff as she chirps to Pigeon Jane that she's going to feed him to a vulture like a worm -- but just then, Lisbird breaks in, arresting Blue Bird and saving Jane and CBI Ron who go home with Lisbird where Jane makes everyone the best scrambled eggs.
All this time, how did I not see? Of course, the sad bird smiley face with a cowlick is really the face of THE BLUE BIRD!
