twenty-second years later, Marcy is a successful but disillusioned insurance salesman while Anne and Sasha, now rendered in anime thanks to a special surgery operating machine designed to alter toon's bodies, spends most of his time on the fan convention circuit. The two are contacted by their old co-star Lola Tofu, Beetlejuice, Roy Rooster and Bunnicula, who owes money to the criminal Valley Gang due to his favorite music disc addiction. Anne and Sasha warns the pair of a trafficking operation where toons are kidnapped, have their appearances altered, and are shipped overseas to produce bootlegs of their works for the rest of their lives. Later that night, the two are informed that Anne and Sasha has been kidnapped. They meet Police Nails and Brushbush; the latter reveals himself to be a big The Amphibia fan, and with the police's hands tied, he suggests Anna, Sasha and Marcy investigate on their own.

Anne, Sasha and Marcy visit B.P. Richfield, Sprig Plantar's Chocopede's dealer, and ask about the Valley Gang. They are taken to the uncanny valley part of town and meet the gang's leader, Sideshow Bob (The Simpsons)—and her henchmen Patchy the Pirate and the Lobe Realizing they are investigating his bootlegging business, Patchy tries to capture the pair, but the girls escape. The two later share their discoveries with Robert, learning that he is shunned by Captain Paula due to acting on a bad tip and raiding Nickelodeon Junior Studios with negative results. With Robert's help, the girls sneak into a bathhouse to steal Patchy fitness tracker. They trace his movements to a dock warehouse, though it is already abandoned by the time the police arrive. Inside, they find Patchy operating machine, along with several toon parts, including Sprig's scales.

At the police station, the pair argue over the loss of Sprig and their past feud but smell the scent of Sprig's slingshot. Realizing either Private Zhang or Nails the Spider is working with Sideshow Bob, the two flee the station. At the ongoing Fan Con, they try to convince Beetlejuice to ask his FBI contacts for help, but Patchy and her henchmen arrive, having tracked Marcy using his social media posts. In the ongoing chase, Patchy the Pirate is restrained by Lola Tofu & Roy and Bunnicula & sent to jail, but Anne and Sasha is caught by Sideshow Bob and The Lobe and taken to the warehouse. Zhang is also lured there by Polar Bear revealing he is part of the Valley Gang and has been covering for Sideshow Bob including giving Face the false Nick Jr. tip.

Sideshow Bob has Zhang call Marcy to lure him to the warehouse, but Ellie sends a coded message using her favorite Amphibia episode, "The Sorrow and the Party". Anne and Friends realizes Zhang is in trouble and contacts Polly, Hop-Pop Plantar and Sylvia Sundew, as family neighbors, for help. Marcy Wu enters the warehouse using a firework, which gets lodged into the machine and stops it before it can be used on Anne and Sasha The machine's lasers goes haywire, transforming The Lobe into a Fairy and Sideshow Bob into a giant amalgamation of various toons. While Zhang fights and defeats The Red Guy, Sideshow Bob chase Marcy and Friends through the warehouse, revealing it to also be where the version are filmed. The Girls lure Pete to the docks and use a ploy from a Amphibia episode, "Bad Guy Play" to trap him.

The FBI, led by Beetlejuice, arrest Sideshow Bob who fires a cannonball at Marcy, but Anne takes a hit. Marcy fears Sasha and Anne is dead and and apologizes for her behavior over the years, but Anne and Sasha reveals he was protected by a golden pog Marcy gave him. The Girls free all the version toons free, including Sprig Plantar, who has been used for a bootleg version of Donald Duck and the frogs reunite. Anne and his Friends introduces them to Zhang and Ace Hart, who decides to open her own detective agency. As the team departs, Marcy Wu again proposes a Amphibia reboot, but Anne and Friends insists on seeing the script first.
