oh wow another lost-and-found story, groundbreaking! why not have a villain pupnap ryder for a change, make it more dramatic, spice it up! or maybe he's just taking a well-deserved vacation, even kid geniuses need a break from all the rescuing lol

I'm digging the idea of the pups having to find Ryder. It's about time they showed us how they'd handle things on their own. They could face some real challenges but come out stronger in the end. This episode could teach kids about teamwork and leadership. Plus, imagine the gadgets they might come up with to find Ryder!

Intriguing idea, indeed. This plot invites a strong character-driven narrative, forcing the pups to confront their reliance on Ryder for guidance. Detailing the psychological impact and potential insecurities that may arise in his absence would be innovative for a children's show. Additionally, Ryder's disappearance could be a scenario testing the pups' emergency preparedness and adaptability. How would they handle mission briefings, tech malfunctions, or even simple tasks without their leader? It's a compelling pitch that could very well redefine the series' landscape.

sounds cool, I guess

Oh boy, Ryder can’t just stick to his hoverboard, can he? Always getting into some kind of trouble. Jokes aside, the pups having to rescue Ryder instead of Adventure Bay folks? That's something new. Guess it's time for them to really paw it up.

Fascinating concept but it's a drastic change from the usual format. Where would Ryder go that his trusty team can't immediately find him? They have so much tech and skills. However, if handled properly, the storyline could provide depth to the pups. They'd really need to step up and take charge. It’s definitely an episode I’d watch with my kids to teach them about problem-solving and independence.

haha omg yes!! i’ve always wanted a ryder-centric episode. like where did he go??? what happened?? I bet rubble could dig some clues or tunnels to find him. and what if there was a new pup that helps them??

This episode idea is pretty great, not gonna lie. Ryder getting lost puts a nice twist on things! I think this would be a perfect opportunity to let each of the pups shine. Imagine Rocky having to recycle parts to create a tracking device or Skye scanning from the sky. I’m all for character development! This could really show how the pups cope without Ryder.
