Characters present[]
Title card[]
Mr. Slowy gives a roll call of the goats, starting with Weslie and continuing with Tibbie, Paddi, and Sparky, with each goat appearing as their name is called (including Jonie, whose name Slowy does not say). Slowy then calls for Grandpa Meteor, then asks if a meteor is falling from the sky. Grandpa Meteor rides his motorcycle to the ground, and the goats all run away before the episode title appears.
Summary[]
The goats are sitting on a blanket outside in the middle of the night. Tibbie says if you wish on a meteor, you wish will come true, and Paddi replies saying he prefers candy. Weslie mentions he prefers the running tracks and imagines himself running on a path in the night sky, followed by Sparky saying he’d prefer boxing gloves and imagining himself in the night sky with boxing gloves. Tibbie gets angry and asks how they can make their wishes if they don’t have a meteor to wish on, at which moment Grandpa Meteor passes them by on his bike in the sky. The goats dismiss it as nothing, and Wolffy pops out of a nearby hole in the ground and gleefully asks that when the goats make their wishes, they wish he weren’t so goofy.
Grandpa Meteor drives his bike to a portal floating in space and gets off his vehicle to enter it, saying he’s glad the goats didn’t make any wishes since he’d be distracted from his retirement by granting them. Several wishes zoom into the portal, and Grandpa Meteor enters the portal himself and greets the younger stars inside working to grant people’s wishes. The elder meteor makes an announcement to them about his retirement, tells them to keep up their work of granting wishes, bids them farewell, and has his assistant Starry transform into his bike and rides away.
As Grandpa Meteor rides in the sky, the goats notice him for real this time and make their wishes (Weslie wants to be smarter, Sparky wants to be stronger, Tibbie wants the grassland to stay beautiful, and Paddi wants an endless supply of green grass cakes). This creates several wish bombs that chase the meteor and hit him, causing him to fall towards the ground. Wolffy, who is right in the meteor’s path, gets into a pod he built and makes it jump into the spot where the meteor lands; when the goats investigate, Wolffy emerges from the pod pretending to be Grandpa Meteor. Weslie notices Wolffy’s tail and tells everyone to run, but Wolffy uses his “wish remote” to create a fence around them so they can’t escape. The actual Grandpa Meteor comes up from under Wolffy’s pod and tells the goats to make their wishes now before he retires; Weslie thinks he may be another impostor, and Wolffy approaches Paddi to capture him. Paddi tries to wish something to make Wolffy stop, but Wolffy himself cuts in by wishing to be stronger and the wish is granted. Paddi tries to wish that Wolffy trips on something, but Wolffy uses the chance to wish for roller skates to move faster. A scared Paddi says he meant for him to slip on a banana peel, and a banana peel appears in front of Wolffy and makes him slip out of his roller skates. The goats then make wishes to humiliate Wolffy, with Tibbie making flowers sprout from his head, Sparky making his hands fight with each other, and Tibbie making him run home. The goats are now assured that this is the real Grandpa Meteor, and Weslie tells him that there are other people in their village who want wishes granted.
To get the job over with, Grandpa Meteor plants a star tree in the grassland that grows gigantic within seconds and spawns an entire unique area around it. The meteor instructs the goats to write their wishes down in wishing bottles and then hang them on the star tree. If the bottles fall as he beats the drums in the newly created area, he’ll make those wishes come true. The goats proceed to hang their wish bottles, and Grandpa Meteor is astonished by the sheer amount of bottles but says to himself he can make all the wishes come true.
Back at Wolf Fortress, Wolnie picks the flowers off of Wolffy’s head and realizes that Grandpa Meteor does indeed exist and isn’t just a legend. Wolffy adds that if he can obtain the meteor’s staff, then “the world will be our oyster.” Meanwhile, back at the star tree, the meteor assures the goats their wishes will be granted by tomorrow, and the goats thank him and leave. The meteor is exhausted after granting 990 wishes and is happy there are only a few more left to grant, but then numerous others drop by the star tree and hang their wish bottles, causing the tree to have way more bottles than it did seconds ago. Wolffy and Wolnie arrive as well, and Wolffy snatches Grandpa Meteor’s wand.
The wolf couple return to their castle, where Wolffy lets Wilie make a wish. Wilie wishes for a small train, but the wand doesn’t work and Wolffy tries to mend it when he thinks it may be broken. Grandpa Meteor calls for Starry, and the wand reveals itself to be Starry by having its disassembled pieces float out of the castle. Wolffy grabs a helmet and starts to chase after the wand, holding onto a little sphere-shaped piece of it as a thunderstorm starts. Wolffy and the orb float to the sky above the clouds, and Wolffy loses his grip and falls into a river near a waterfall.
The wand finds its way back to Grandpa Meteor, who is with the goats. Paddi wishes for green grass cakes for everyone to eat to celebrate the meteor retrieving his wand, and the wish comes true. However, the cakes appear in mid-air and fall on the goats’ faces, and the meteor tries to revert the cakes to normal, but his wand doesn’t work and he gets worried about having to keep going with his job for another billion years. Weslie asks Grandpa Meteor if he can let the goats make their own wishes come true in a sort of chain (Weslie grants Sparky’s wish, then Sparky grants Tibbie’s wish, then Tibbie grants Jonie’s wish, and so on). The goats all thinks this is a good idea, and the meteor entrusts Weslie with a special orb that gives him wish-granting powers and creates a cape on him.
