Gobo wants to solve the riddle of Rhyming Rock, and he hears a story from the Storyteller Fraggle about a book of magic spells that includes a spell for solving riddles. But Gobo doesn't listen to the whole story and when he tries to use the spell, everything goes wrong which results in Rhyming Rock collapsing enough to trap Wembley Fraggle.
