Plot[]
In her lair, Scylla is angry with her constant failures to kidnap the troll family, until she receives the Witches' Travel Catalogue, thanks to which she, upon seeing the Jungle Island, decides to take a vacation there, taking Hugolina and her kids with her of course. When Hugo comes home to see anything but his family, he jumps to the conclusion that they're in Scylla's lair, which proves not to be the case. Hugo at first doesn't understand, but he realizes what happened after stumbling upon the catalogue opened at the page in which the Jungle Island is shown. Hugo then flies his plane to the Jungle Island.
But little did Hugo know, Scylla had formed an alliance with the island's former governor, Don Croco. Shot down with a pineapple, Hugo's plane crash lands on a beach, where he meets Ferdinand the toucan and Jean Paul the monkey, who join in Hugo's quest to rescue Hugolina and his children.
