Winx Club - Episode 104

The Black-Mud Swamp is the fourth episode of the first season of Winx Club.

Synopsis
Professer Palladium takes the girls to Black Mud Swamp in order to teach them how to listen to the voice of nature and find their way out.

The Winx's trip is cut short when they spot a Red Fountain Aircraft (that was transporting a troll) going down. Arriving on the crash site, the Specialists accidently reveal what their dangerous cargo was after discovering the troll had escaped.

The girls decide to help the Specialists (Sky, Brandon, Timmy and Riven) find the troll, after Flora saves them from the Quietous Carnivores plants. By the end of the day they discover that it was the Trix who first helped the troll escape, then cast an anti gravity spell so he can't be followed, then in the end they make him disapear.

The bond between the Winx and Specialists grows deeper. And in the end Sky, Brandon, Timmy and Riven form a real group of Specialists.
