So my budgies (who are tame and free roam 24/7) have been doing 'scared screams' all week, almost constantly. My chill budgie, Stormy, who is never scared is now super stressed, and so are the others (excluding Apollo). I really don't know what's going on, I haven't changed the room, they're not molting, I didn't just bring a super mean bird home. HELP!

It probably is the presence of Apollo, even though he's not doing anything to them and mostly minding his own business. They're just not used to him at all.
Is there any way you could remove Apollo from the room and reintroduce them?

No, not really...
And they were stressed even before Apollo
