In episode two, Paul returns to the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre, where he meets five-year-old Boogie Boy. Two months earlier, Boogie Boy fell out of a tree and broke his arm and is now having physiotherapy. Paul helps distract Boogie while the ranger manipulates his arm. Later, Boogie has to go to the local human clinic for an x-ray to check the fracture has healed. It has, so Paul takes him back to the ropes where the other orangutans are learning to climb. No-one knows whether the fall will have affected his confidence.
