Season 1

Tests and Jests S1, Ep1 Jan. 8, 2006

As Jane practices for and frets over an upcoming test in her quest for full-fledged knighthood, she becomes concerned over the young prince's treatment of Pepper. Seems Cuthbert sneaks into the kitchen and helps himself to snacks between meals, disrupting Pepper's menu planning and making her job doubly hard. When Jane gently suggests to the prince that he refrain, he runs to the king to report her insolence. She strikes a bargain vowing to abandon her pursuit of knighthood should she fail her test, if the prince will stop raiding the kitchen should she pass.

The Tooth Fairy S1, Ep2

When Dragon overhears Jane telling Lavinia about the tooth fairy, he asks her if the tooth fairy is real. With the princess standing by, Jane assures Dragon that the tooth fairy is indeed real, compromising their relationship which is built on total honesty. Jane grapples with the idea of revealing her "white lie" to Dragon once they're alone, but opts instead to fulfill the role of tooth fairy herself when Dragon loses a tooth.

Jester Justice S1, Ep3

Jester entertains Jane and Smithy with an impression of Sir Ivon. Sir Ivon catches the end of the performance and is not amused. So much so that he challenges Jester to meet him on the field of honor in two days time. Unfamiliar with the nuances of the laws of chivalry, Jester consults with Sir Theodore on how he might avoid the contest but comes away only with the assurance that, as the challenged party, he will decide the choice of weapons. Jane tries in vain to convince Jester to flee or at least allow her to school him in weapons use.

A Dragon's Tail S1, Ep4

Smithy diagnoses Dragon's curious ailment as "curly tail", a condition often afflicting pigs. The only treatment is a rare plant known as Skyleaf, grown only on the far side of the mountain. With Dragon sidelined, Jane prepares for an overland trek to secure the remedy. Sir Theodore seizes the opportunity to force some team building life lessons onto his two apprentice knights and sends Gunther along on the quest.

Jane and the Dragon is a CGI animated series based on the books of the same name by Martin Baynton. The series follows the comedic exploits of Jane, an adolescent girl training to be a knight, and her friend, Dragon, a talking, flying, 300-year-old, fire-breathing dragon.
