The fifteenth installment of the second season of the animated series Ewoks, titled "Baga's Rival," was penned by Linda Woolverton and directed by Dale Schott. It was originally broadcasted on November 8, 1986 via the ABC network.
At the beginning of the episode, Kneesaa, accompanied by Teebo and Wicket, are seen struggling to get Kneesaa's pet bordok, Baga, into the river for a bath. Latara, perched on a raised platform, expresses her aversion to Baga's unpleasant odor. Despite the three Ewoks efforts to drag Baga into the water, the bordok manages to bite through the rope, causing the trio to tumble into the river instead. Latara finds this amusing, but Baga retaliates by tipping the platform, sending her flying into the river as well.
While complaining about Baga, they stumble upon a beautiful creature resembling a white unicorn, which allows Kneesaa and the other Ewoks to pet and stroke it. Baga becomes envious. When Latara remarks on the creature's silky mane, Kneesaa decides to name him Silky. Kneesaa extends an invitation for Silky to visit their village. Once the Ewoks are out of sight, Silky emits a growl towards Baga and uses his horn to send a bright spark hurtling downriver. Silky then accompanies the Ewoks on their return journey to Bright Tree Village.
Simultaneously, Silky's bright spark reaches a waterfall that flows upstream to Jadru's maze. Jadru emerges from her throne and observes the events through her crystal ball. She is delighted that the Ewoks have accepted her Quarf as their pet, as she intends to seize the Ewoks' Sunstar for her own purposes.
Upon arriving back at Bright Tree Village, Silky quickly wins over the Ewoks. Feeling jealous, Baga attempts to gain Shodu's favor. Shodu, who is juggling Winda and a bag of fruits, hands the fruits to Baga, who is burdened with the heavy bag. Two woklings enjoy riding Silky, who takes over the task of carrying the heavy bag of fruits. Shodu and Kneesaa praise him as a marvel. Baga tries to attract Kneesaa's attention, but she dismisses him, telling him not to be jealous.
Later that evening, Chief Chirpa questions Silky's presence on Kneesaa's bed. Kneesaa pleads with her father to allow Silky to share her bed for the night, arguing that Silky will catch a cold if he sleeps outside. Chirpa reluctantly agrees and tucks his daughter in. Baga watches forlornly from outside before retreating to his straw manger.
The next day, the Ewoks attempt to coax Silky to cross a log. Baga tries to cross a log to demonstrate his usefulness to the Ewoks. Silky reveals she has a pair of pink wings and flies over the Ewoks. Baga loses his balance and falls into the river. Kneesaa is cross with him for walking on the log and getting into Silky's way. Silky convinces Kneesaa to let him give her a ride, which she obliges. While soaring through the air, Silky transforms into a green, dragon-like creature and abducts Kneesaa.
Wicket, Latara, and Teebo are horrified as Silky kidnaps Latara and flies away with her. Baga also hears Kneesaa's plight and pursues Silky from the ground. The Ewoks join the pursuit. They meet on the opposite sides of a river linked by several rocks. Since Baga has picked up Silky's trail, the Ewoks follow him. Baga and the Ewoks soon reach a waterfall, which Baga climbs up. Wicket sets Teebo and Latara to warn Chief Chirpa what has happened while he and Baga follows Kneesaa. They warn him to be careful.
Together, Wicket and Baga ascend the waterfall cliff-face, which leads them to Jadru's lair. Inside Jadru's throne room, Silky, having restrained Kneesaa with his wings, presents her before his mistress Jadru. Observing through her crystal ball, Jadru issues an ultimatum to Chief Chirpa, demanding the Sunstar in exchange for his daughter's safe return. Chirpa is enraged, while Kneesaa remains defiant. Jadru is confident that Chirpa will yield.
Suddenly, Silky detects movement from within the tunnels. Through the crystal glass, Jadru sees Wicket and Baga advancing towards them. Jadru is confident that she would defeat them. Kneesaa laments her foolishness in abandoning Baga. Jadru sends a bolt of yellow energy into the maze. Meanwhile, Wicket encourages Baga, who follows Kneesaa's scent through the maze. Jadru communicates with them through a portal, taunting them that they will never find their way out.
Jadru traps them behind several doors. Baga manages to pick up the scent but comes up against a gate. Jadru taunts Kneesaa that her friends will be trapped in the maze forever. However, Baga is able to use his strong sense of smell to lead the way. Jadru thanks Silky for his service, believing that the Ewok's Sunstar will be hers. However, Baga and Wicket manage to force their way through a gate.
Wicket demands that Jadru releases Kneesaa and charges at her. Jadru orders Silky to destroy them. After throwing off Kneesaa, he charges at Baga and Wicket. Kneesaa warns Baga and Wicket, who dodge out of harm's way. Reuniting with Baga and Wicket, Kneesaa and her rescuers flee through Jadru's maze. Jadru gives chase while riding on Silky. She hurls a bolt of fire at them. While riding on Baga, Kneesaa thanks her bordok for coming to rescue her after she was so mean to him.
With Jadru and Silky in pursuit, Wicket guides Baga and Kneesaa to conceal themselves behind a column. Wicket then leads the trio back to the throne room. Wicket and Kneesaa decide to trap Jadru in her own maze, using the levers in the throneroom to seal the various gates. Jadru is horrified that someone is controlling her maze and vows vengeance. Back in the throneroom, Kneesaa wonders how they will get out of Jadru's maze.
At that moment, Chief Chirpa and his warriors break into the throne room. Chirpa expresses his joy at his daughter's safety, adding that Teebo and Latara informed him of their location. Suddenly, they hear Jadru vowing vengeance. Wicket shows Chirpa the levers, which the Ewoks destroy. Jadru and Silky are trapped within Jadru's maze. Chirpa commends Wicket, passing him a broken piece of the lever as something to add to his Belt of Honor.
After escaping Jadru's maze, Kneesaa apologizes to Baga for neglecting him. She asks if he will ever forgive him. The bordok licks her face, prompting Kneesaa to tell him that she loves him.
