Plot
Roddy has returned to Kensington, but his family goes on another trip. While Roddy is in the house, he encounters two new gerbil friends, Gilbert and Sullivan. They teach Roddy obstacle courses and give him trophies every time he wins them. However, Roddy, Gilbert, and Sullivan hear a noise in the kitchen. The noise in the kitchen happens to be Sid again. The reason why he was hiding in the kitchen again is because he wanted to hide from the family's new cat. Because of this, Roddy plans to flush him down again, but Sid doesn't like the idea because Sid didn't want to go to Rita's house, due to the house being "too crowded". So Sid flushes down Roddy and ends up in Ratropolis again. In there, Rodddy meets a mouse named Sam. He orders a task for Roddy to find him a green hat because he doesn't want to be a bald mouse and he wants to impress his girlfriend, Susan. At first, Roddy thinks that task is ridiculous, but Sam convinces to him to find the green hat because he said "If you find it, I will show you a way home". The hat ends up being in a dangerous sewer full of evil mexican spiders and evil slime-spitting slugs. After defeating all the spiders and slugs, he finds the hat, but he encounters evil mocking flies. Eventually, he defeats them too and returns to Sam. After Roddy gives Sam the green hat, he shows him a way back to Kensington. Roddy returns home again and he learns to make friends with Sid. As a result, Roddy and Sid (now) become brothers.
