Plot
Ever since 2010, Finn had been friends with Chowder and Flapjack. But when August came around, Chowder and Flapjack's shows were canceled, and Finn was upset that they were gone. Doing his show, he could barely take his mind off them to stay focused, but with help from his friends, he was able to stay on track. Fortunately, after eight years on the air, Finn felt glad to be part of the concluded shows. In the present day, Finn had explained his predicament to the other defunct shows in the studio, which leaves everybody in pity for him.

In Ooo, he; Jake; BMO; Bonnibel; Marceline; Simon; Phoebe; Lumpy Space Princess and Lady travel to Lady's barn to celebrate Jake and Lady's children's birthday. While there, he is less enthusiastic. After the party, Bonnibel comforts Finn and has a talk with him. Still on the fact that he and his friends were still not on speaking terms, she questions if he could just go over and meet them otherwise; giving Finn an epiphany.

As Finn sets off to reunite with his old friends, he has Marceline lie about his whereabouts until further notice. Upon the reunion, they discuss about the two's decrease in popularity and recognition, so Finn decides to get them each a film as to re-introduce them to the public. Arriving at the Warner Bros. studio, they get thrown out by security. After many attempts of getting in, they disguise as their creators and claim that they want to pitch their idea for The CN Movie; in which works. Heading inside, they meet the receptionist to ask if they could see head executive for their request on giving Chowder and Flapjack their own movies, in which she declines due to Chowder and Flapjack's shows' declining qualities, followed by getting thrown out again.

They sneak into the executive's office via transition flip and meet executive Dan Manson. Unfortunately, he forgoes their wish of giving them a movie despite being their biggest fan, but he could make a movie about all three of them if they sign a contract, for "personal reasons", to forward the idea. Arriving back at Cartoon Network Studios, the Adventure Time characters are distraught at Finn for his absence, indicating that Marceline hadn't covered for him. Finn tries to make up for it by explaining that they got a deal for a movie about the trio and half the studio's other characters. Chowder eventually discovers that they had signed away the rights to the studio, thanks to the Powerpuff Girls ' Narrator explaining the plot point.

The boys, knowing that they were responsible for signing away the rights, go back to the studio to get back the rights. Arriving back to Warner Bros., the boys try to get Manson to give back their studio's rights, in which he will for $50,000,000, much to their disappointment. With no other options, they decide to steal the contract back. At night, the boys sneak into the studio and break into Manson's office and find the contract. However, Manson found out that the boys would steal it, so he kept it with him, so they could not find it. In response to them trying to steal the contract, he brings security to escort them out, followed by knocking them out.

Waking up, they find themselves in a crate. Getting out, they find themselves in London, England. Unfamiliar with the country, they go around town to get help to get back to Burbank. At a nearby bar, they find out on the news that Manson will start owning the studio by tomorrow and will rebrand it as a film industry. Two patrons inside recognize the three and the boys inform them on their situation, and they agree to help them get back to California. Traveling by plane, they make it back still in time to stop him from owning the studio.

Getting to Warner Bros., they confront Manson and suddenly retrieve the contract from him, during their argument, then run off into the studio lot to loose him. They then hijack a security cart and drive back to the studio, with Manson and his bodyguards giving chase. They eventually loose them by Chowder rocketing their cart into the sky via spicy peppers, with the trio landing on a cruise ship. As they continue, their cart's engine stalls, much to their dismay. Fortunately, they get a lift from Manson's assistant Andrew Neilly.

Arriving to the studio, they find everyone outside and relieved that they have returned. Unfortunately, Manson arrives and tries to take back the contract, leading to the boys to pass it on to many of the other Cartoon Network characters, with Phoebe grasping it last; leading to accidentally burning it in the process, leaving Manson in anguish. Fed up with the three, he reveals that he wants to buy the studio to make it as his film industry because every studio has rejected his ideas, so he had to buy a piece of land to produce his own movies. Unbeknownst to him, his entire confession has been broadcast by Dexter and BMO, leading to his arrest by the police. The characters rejoice and throw a celebratory dance party, with Marceline singing "Ultimate" by Lindsay Lohan.
