Plot[]
The Winx, Specialists, and Nex enjoy their vacation on the beaches of Paradise Bay. They decide to explore the island and do some sightseeing. But before that they go find Brandon and Stella first. Stella is sunbathing and Brandon is out looking for something to give Stella. He spots glowing pink flowers and proceeds to pick them but an antelope and a bird aggressively try to stop him. With much difficulty, Brandon is able to pick the flowers and present them to Stella, who is elated to received them. Their friends join them and tease them as they were in their own world.
With everyone together, they go sightseeing. They are amazed at the untouched nature but then Bloom gets a call from Roxy. However, instead of Roxy being on-screen, it is the Winx's fairy animals and much to Helia's shock, they can talk now. Shiny then snatches Roxy's phone from Squonk and when Brandon and Stella appear on-screen, she is enamored by Brandon much to the confusion of him and Stella.
Roxy reclaims her phone from Shiny and scolds her for stealing it. She tells the Winx her yaffles have told her that all the animals on Paradise Bay are in danger! To cover more ground in search of threat, the Winx and the boys split up. As the Winx conduct their search, Bloom notices that the forest is quiet. Too quiet... Musa tries to elicit some sounds from the animals by whistling but to no avail. Flora uses her powers on some vegetation and she senses the direction they should go; she leads the way. As the Winx walk down a slope, Bloom tells them to be careful and ironically slips, which causes her to crash into her friends. They tumble down and end up in a spot on the island full of dying vegetation. Flora uses her powers again and the plants inform her that something deep within is the source of the threat.
The Winx transform into their Tynix and enter the Leaf MiniWorld, the heart of Paradise Bay. Tecna observes that here, plant life is continuously created. And Flora, as the Fairy of Nature, feels incredibly happy here. The Winx's fairy animals join them as well.
As they explore the MiniWorld, they come across plant mites terrorizing a leafy named Chloe. The Winx keep the plant mites at bay and Stella chases them off. After being knocked into a pond by a plant mite, Chloe returns to the surface and thanks them for saving her (her language now being translated by the Tynix Bracelets). After introductions, the Winx inquire about the plant mites' objectives are and are informed that they want the leafies' lymph. They are greedy for it and constantly try to steal it from the chlorophyll sources.
Flora tells Chloe that they are willing to protect it as they do not want the plant mites to destroy Paradise Bay. Stella reaffirms it by expressing the beauties of the island but when she mentions the flowers Brandon gifted her, the leafies attack them, proclaiming that the Winx are their enemies. The Winx evade their attacks and even though Stella wants to retaliate, Bloom urges her not to. Bloom has Elas take her to the leafies and assures they do not want to hurt them. The leafies think otherwise and continue their barrage of attacks until Flora demonstrates that they are no match for her powers. This forces the leafies to stop and Flora sternly tells them they need to talk.
The Winx, once again, explain they are here to help but the leafies do not believe them. Instead, they think the Winx are the threat to Paradise Bay. They ready themselves to attack again.

Trivia[]
- This marks the first appearance of Paradise Bay since Season 5.
- This also marks the first appearance of Roxy's cellphone since Season 4.
- A lymph is "[the] clear fluid that travels through the lymphatic system and carries cells that help fight infections and other diseases."[1] So, when Chloe mentions this, she is essentially saying that this fluid runs throughout the Leaf MiniWorld and supports its vitality.
