Original Airdate: October 6, 1989
Link plans an attempt at romancing Zelda by swinging into her window from above by a rope (with some coaching from the King), but the attempt is interrupted as Ganon rides a mysterious flying unicorn over the castle and kidnaps the king for ransom. The duo set off to rescue him, and along the way, meet up with Sing, who is the true owner of the unicorn that Ganon stole. This is the first appearance of a Grappling Hook in the series before appearing in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.
Note: This is one of the episodes in the series not to feature Spryte as the titular character, the others being "Underworld Connections", "A Hitch in the Works", and "The Moblins Are Revolting". But Spryte only made an appearance in the opening before the episode starts
