A: Some international versions of Nickelodeon aired "The Hidden" (Episode 3) first. Check your region’s listing. The production code for "Launchtime" is 101.
The episode opens with the penguins enjoying a quiet night of chess in their secret headquarters, hidden within their New York zoo enclosure.
