Penguin Martin: In the morning, Dad opened the refrigerator door and surprisingly found Martin curled up inside, holding a frozen fish in his mouth, having turned into a chubby, fat penguin! Martin and his classmates boarded an Antarctic scientific research ship and set sail for Antarctica. Guo Mo and Luo Na were wearing thick down jackets but were still shivering from the cold, while Martin didn’t mind the cold. Suddenly, the ship collided with an iceberg, and it looked like a repeat of the "Ice Sea Shipwreck" tragedy. Penguin Martin jumped into the icy sea and quickly averted the danger. On the ice surface of Antarctica, Martin and the others were ice-skating when they suddenly spotted a little penguin slipping into a gap in the iceberg, about to be eaten by a seagull! Martin and the others bravely climbed the iceberg to rescue the little penguin, but this attracted an attack from a group of seagulls. When a large seagull grabbed Martin from behind, he flew high into the sky.
Magic Pen Martin: Martin discovered a magical pen in his ship’s pencil box. He wrote a "0," and suddenly a large cake leaped into his mouth. Then he wrote a "1," and suddenly an oil stick appeared in front of Guo Mo! It turned out that Martin had become "Magic Pen Martin," and the pen in his hand was the same magical pen used by "Magic Pen Ma Liang" in folklore. To return the pen to Ma Liang, they went to the cinema. The screen was playing the movie "Magic Pen Ma Liang": Ma Liang tricked the greedy landlord onto the sea and used the magic pen to draw a storm to capsize the boat and drown the bad landlord, but Ma Liang couldn’t find his magic pen, so the landlord tied him up. At this moment, Martin used the magic pen to draw a speedboat, and the three of them boarded it and rushed into the screen, ending up in the story’s scenario, staging a magical and thrilling "Magic Pen Ma Liang" play!
Savings Bank Martin: Beside Martin’s bed, there was a ceramic savings bank, plump and adorable! Little did he know, Martin had also turned into a savings bank today! He looked at his reflection in the mirror and then at the little pig savings bank—it looked like brothers. That day, Martin and his classmates went out to raise donations for children who couldn’t go to school in the mountains. He planned to donate the little pig savings bank, but the little pig savings bank was so sad that it sneaked away halfway. At the donation site, Martin couldn’t find the savings bank and was misunderstood as being stingy. Martin and Luo Na danced the "Love Dance," attracting passersby to donate generously. Martin’s stomach was full, and he was very happy! But no matter what he tried, he couldn’t get the money out. Martin was about to break himself to get the money, moving everyone to tears and even the little pig savings bank hiding nearby. Just as Martin was about to shatter, the little pig savings bank came up with a clever plan to save him.
