Oscar visits Dunedin which, along with New Zealand's modern railways, Twain was highly complimentary of. Plus in Timaru, Oscar learns of a famous local boxer.
Twain joins a list of distinguished guests who have bagged Palmerston North, but his rantings from 1895 give rise to a bold experiment in 2018 - can a cat play a piano?
Oscar visits Hawera where he draws parallels between Mark Twain and local writer Ronald Hugh Morrieson of "Came A Hot Friday" fame. Oscar also meets locals doing great things in the region of Mount Taranaki.
Oscar visits Oamaru, where he comes across a gaggle of pretty penguins, as well as a chap called Bruce Comfort who knows everything about a structure 99% of Kiwis are unaware exists.
Oscar ends his journey in Whanganui where he discovers how sneaky sly-groggers got around prohibition booze bans, and the real motive behind an ill-fated raid on the Uruweras.
Oscar visits Rotorua - the birthplace of New Zealand tourism - described by locals in Mark Twain's time as "Cure-land". He then travels to the site of the 1896 Tarawera eruption, and explores Napier.
