Nutty is roasting
marshmallows, Lumpy is supervising, and Toothy and Sniffles are shooting cans with
a slingshot. We then cut to Cuddles fixing his cart. Right above him, a bird is
putting an acorn in a tree hollow, but it falls on Cuddles' head, which annoys him
and grabs his attention.
Seeing Toothy laughing with Sniffles and holding a slingshot, Cuddles assumes that
Toothy fired a rock at him on purpose and then shoots a rock at him with his own
slingshot to get back at him. Toothy gets annoyed when he gets hit and retaliates
by shooting a rock at Cuddles, only to have it miss when Cuddles ducks and bounce
off a tree, and hit a melted marshmallow against Nutty's eye, melting his eyeball
onto it.
Elsewhere, Petunia gets ready to eat some grapes, but a pebble hits them, popping
most of them and splattering some juice on to her. Frustrated, she tries to join
the fight, but since her left hand is sticky and she pulls the slingshot back too
much, it slips from her hands and her slingshot gets rammed in both of her eyes,
killing her. The Mole then appears and is hit as well, and he reaches for a
slingshot. He pulls up the slingshot that now is made of Petunia's eyeballs and the
optical nerves, representing the string for flinging the pebbles.
Cuddles drives away in his cart with Toothy in his own cart following closely
behind. Lumpy blows the trumpet hard enough for the pebble to come out, but it hits
a giant boulder, which begins rolling after Cuddles and Toothy. Not noticing the
gigantic rock trailing after them, Cuddles continues the fight and hits Toothy in
the eye with a pebble, causing Toothy's eye to swell up and to lose control,
resulting in a crash. They then spot their slingshot not very far away and try to
settle things with a short-ranged hit, but stop after spotting the boulder coming
straight at them.
Before the credits play, a short trailer for the iOS game Deadeye Derby is shown.
