First, in the City, Curious George grows tired of the same old bathtub boat toys and decides that he needs something different to entertain himself while bathing, and so, while dripping wet, Curious George retrieves his "box of stray stuff," none of which has ever been played with before in the tub, when the Man with the Yellow Hat asks him to return to tub to finish bathing.
Now, after most of the contents of his "box of stray stuff" sinks, Curious George pulls the drain, causing most of his stray stuff to slide into the drain, thus clogging the bathtub and sink, and to back water into the kitchen sink, where the Man with the Yellow Hat washes dishes, causing him to decide to call the plumber.
Well, Mr. Auger the Plumber arrives, carrying the best toolbox which Curious George has ever seen, as the Doorman and Hundley the Doorman's Dachshund admit Mr. Auger, for Hundley to direct Mr. Auger to into the basement to shut off the main water valve, as Mr. Auger tells Curious George that he may watch if he's curious.
Then, Mr. Auger explains valves and pipes and the plumbing system, along with the clog-breaking machine, which he carries upstairs into the apartment, to release trapped stray toys. Mr. Auger then tells the Man with the Yellow Hat that he deduces that the drain clogged after Curious George took a bath, then suggesting a toy boat or a rubber duck.
And then, Mr. Auger shows Curious George how to open the downstairs shut-off valve for everyone in the building to have water again.
But, at dinner, when the Man with the Yellow Hat offers to purchase Curious George a toy boat or rubber duck the next morning, Curious George quickly ushers him to the door, in order to purchase bathtub toys now, and so Curious George cleans the kitchen, but water backs up to overflow the dishwasher, causing Curious George to think that Mr. Auger has missed an appliance.
Yet, when Curious George goes into the basement to shut off the main water valve, and to return back and forth to dismantle pipes, Hundley the Doorman's Dachshund watches, but it's too big a job for a little monkey, and so Curious George turns the main water valve back on and searches for the Man with the Yellow Hat at the store, but then Hundley the Doorman's Dachshund discovers water flooding the building!
So, walking back along the sidewalk, the Man with the Yellow Hat discovers water pouring off the balcony, and once inside the lobby, he asks The Doorman if he called the plumber, but the Doorman was on the roof, feeding Compass the Doorman's Almost-Homing Pigeon and the other pigeons, so Curious George, the Man with the Yellow Hat and the Dooman rush into the basement to discover Hundley the Doorman's Dachshund's stranded upon floating boxes! Will anyone be able to remedy the flood created by "Curious George, Plumber's Helper?"

Next, in the Country, the Man with the Yellow Hat and Bill the Country Neighbor Boy invite Curious George on a long hike at the Nature Preserve, where they tell Nature Preserve Ranger of their plans to hike to Lookout Ridge. While the Man with the Yellow Hat needs to create five sketches for Art class, Bill needs to collect a notebook of loose leaves for his loose leaf notebook. In addition to their creative supplies, they pack a First Aid kit, water, rope and whistles.
Now, as the Man with the Yellow Hat and Bill conduct their projects, Curious George expresses boredom at second tree sketching and snacks upon potato chips, then tossing its empty bag over his shoulder. Bill explains that hikers return with everything which they carry into woods or else use the trashcan, into which Curious George tosses the wrapper.
Then, at a stream, Curious George misses the beaver which Bill and the Man with the Yellow Hat observe, before the Man with the Yellow Hat decides upon his third sketch, Beaver Lodge, before it's time to move on.
And then, Curious George observes a waterfall, which interests him, but the Man with the Yellow Hat sketches his fourth drawing, Turtle Peak, while Bill climbs a tree to collects leaves.
Well, Curious George continues to remain bored, coloring his animals, and not seeing anything which he couldn't see at home, while the Man with the Yellow Hat sketches his fifth, Craggy Tree.
But, when they arrive at Lookout Ridge, Bill reaches for a leaf over a cliff and slides down, causing the Man with the Yellow Hat to try to rescue Bill, but they both slide onto the next ledge!
And, when the Man with the Yellow Hat asks Curious George to secure his rope from his pack, but to tie it onto something first, Curious George ties it onto the Man with the Yellow Hat 's easel, which falls and knocks the Man with the Yellow Hat back down to the ledge! Bill then folds the map into a paper airplane to fly to Curious George, but the paper airplane misses and glides away from the ridge!
Yet, as Curious George carries the Man with the Yellow Hat 's sketches of places which they've been: Craggy Tree, Turtle Peak, Beaver Lodge, etc., Bill's bragging irritates the Man with the Yellow Hat, whose Yellow Hat flies off in the wind, while Curious George dips his head into the stream to study the beaver habitat and loses the Man without the Yellow Hat's sketches into the stream!
So, will Curious George be able to discover his garbage in the trashcan, to return to Ranger's Station, to alert Nature Preserve Ranger of Bill and the Man without the Yellow Hat's peril, as the Yellow Hat flies toward the Ranger's Station, when "Curious George Takes a Hike?"
