Living in the midst of a town, the Da Gama troop make a fine living off their human neighbours, going through the bins or even snatching food from open windows - but there is one day that defines their calendar. Wednesday is bin day, and when the wheelie bins go out, the troop begins an ultimate treasure hunt - but can they eat their fill before the bin men arrive?

In this episode, wily male baboon Merlin plans the raid of his life - breaking into a restaurant. Meanwhile, the rest of the troop chill out in a paddling pool, overweight gangster Jimmy trashes a vegetable garden and, in the Tokai forest, bachelor boys Clint and Manni gate-crash a children's birthday party.
