Dreamworks Unite!

Dreamworks Unite! is a crossover animated movie featuring the characters from seven of the Dreamworks' movies: The Bad Guys (2022), How to Train Your Dragon, Rise of the Guardians, Over the Hedge, Kung Fu Panda, Spirit Untamed, and Abominable! It will be released on the late summer of June 2023.

Overview
Mr. Wolf, now a good guy-for real, is enjoying his new life as a crime fighter after living for a long time in the darkness of a criminal. All things go smoothly (despite struggling with a few changes) until his old enemy, Professor Marmalade, returns for revenge by assembling all the villains from different Dreamworks worlds to create a villainous team to take over all worlds and turn everyone in the L.A. city into mind-controlled zombies with his new mind control device and a main tower powered by the piece of the love crater meteorite, while the other villains work on their own plots with highly powered towers he, Cuddles, and Dr. Zara invented.

Wolf has no choice but to escape the horde of his zombified friends until he stumbles upon a portal that takes him into North's workshop in the North Pole, and meets Lucky Prescott and her horse friend Spirit, Po, Jack Frost, RJ the raccoon, Yi and Everest the little yeti, Hiccup and his dragon friend Toothless.

Now teamed up with his new friends, Wolf must travel to all of the Dreamworks' worlds to put an end to the Dreamworks' villains' plot with his new pocketwatch that seems to contain magic powers from the legendary crescent moon-shaped crystal called the Dream Crystal. All while he learns about the new things outside his world, trust, accepting changes, and that even though he and his new friends come from different worlds, they are a family when they are united!

Plot
In the beautiful wintery evening of the Rise of the Guardians world, the Guardian of Fun, Jack Frost was making snowballs for the children to play with when he sees the Northern Lights up in the sky, meaning that North the leader of the Guardians was signaling everyone to come to the North Pole. It seemed to Jack that it was urgent, so he flew all the way to the North Pole while E.aster Bunnymund, Tooth, and the Sandman were heading there as well.

As all four of the Guardians arrive in North's home, North announces that, to everyone's horror, the globe in North's workshop are starting to dim or are going out again because...Pitch Black is back! And what's worst is that he has teamed up with other villains outside their world! But to keep everyone's hopes up, North adds the good news: the Dream Crystal has awoken! Tooth gasps in surprise as she says that she thought that the Dream Crystal hasn't been in activity for years after they made it, and that Jack, Bunny, and North have made the silver pocketwatch to hold its powers. Not anymore, North replied, as the Man in the Moon told him that the time is near: The Dream Crystal has chosen a hero to help them defeat Pitch Black and the other villains.

Jack Frost wonders who the new hero will be as the crystal of the workshop began emerge from the floor to work its magic and slowly create a vision of a wolf wearing a white suit. E.aster Bunnymund notes that's the Big, Bad Wolf but North explains to him that he was known as the Big, Bad Wolf until he became good and ended his criminal life to start a good life as a crime fighter with his friends after being released from prison for good behavior. Curious, Jack asks how the Dream Crystal can possibly choose this wolf to be its new holder when he's done all of the crimes in the past years. North presses a button on the control system when a column with a crystal dome holding the silver pocketwatch with the Dream Crystal, that was glowing inside, emerged from the floor.

As he opened the crystal dome, North takes the pocketwatch from its cushion and gives it to Jack, entrusting him to find the wolf and give him the pocketwatch with the Dream Crystal. Then, Sandman mutedly asks what they will do while Jack Frost finds this so-called Big Bad Wolf when Jack Frost comes up with an idea: if the villains can assemble each other, then they can assemble the heroes he saw in the crystal's visions, including the wolf, from other worlds, can assemble too. Although, Tooth was unsure about this as much as the Sandman, North, and Bunnymund were. With confidence, Jack believes that it will work, like the time when Jamie and the kids helped them fend off Pitch and his nightmares the last time.

After a brief moment of concern and getting a skeptical look from Bunny, North slightly nods and puts Jack Frost's idea into good use when a few more lights on the globe start to flicker. Quickly, the three Guardians went to get to work while North assigns Jack to find these heroes to help him and gives him the teleportation globes to enter their worlds. Jack Frost replies to North that he won't let him down, but before he could throw the globe to make the portal to the first world, North adds to Jack to not worry about the wolf, as the Dream Crystal will make a portal for him to bring to the workshop once he gives him the pocketwatch with it. Nodding, Jack Frost inserts the pocketwatch in his sweater pockets and jumps into the portal until finally, he was gone.

In the city of L.A., Mr. Wolf and his friends, the Bad Guys (now known as the Good Guys), are at work catching criminals and bringing them to justice. A flashback is seen of every criminal being thrown in jail in a row as the last one is seen behind bars. The day finally ends with Wolf and his friends entering their house, exhausted as Wolf lands on the couch face flat. He was glad that they've put another criminal in prison, and not him and his friends since they've been the Bad Guys a long time ago, but when Wolf's phone buzzed, he groaned as another crime had been reported in the bank once again. Although they were still tired and stressed out, Wolf and the gang made their way back to their mobile to take care of yet another crime.

The next day, more crimes were reported and the Bad Guys were still hot on their tails as they captured more criminals. As they finally finish their work, Wolf collapses on the couch again as the Cat jumped onto him and he scratches him behind the ear to soothe Wolf when Diane enters the house to see how exhausted he was, being the city's new crime fighter and all. Wolf rolls to see Diane hovering about him with a smile as she came in to cheer him up with a gift as a reward for a great job: a silver pocket watch with a beautiful moon-shaped crystal that she got from some teenage kid in a blue hoodie sweater that she had bumped into when she was at an antique store, looking for the perfect gift to give to Wolf. She explains that it looked like that kid was in a hurry, but when Diane saw the pocketwatch on the ground, she guessed that the boy must've dropped it on his way out. She gives it to Wolf, who opens it and he sees a picture of him and his friends and the cat cuddling him, plus a quote underneath it that says "No matter where you are, friends are always by your side."

Smiling softly, Wolf thanked Diane for the gift then looked back down at the crystal on the pocketwatch as he touched it. Suddenly, the moon-shaped crystal seems to be glowing that Wolf blinked in surprise. But Wolf dismisses that as he thinks he's seeing things because he was working too hard all day.

That night, Wolf had a strange dream where he was at the Love Crater, fighting off his archenemy, Professor Marmalade, and a bunch of other villains he didn't recognize. But he wasn't alone as Wolf was accompanied by some other heroes and his friends who were helping him fend off their foes when suddenly, a flash of light was coming down on Wolf and he jolted up from his bed, all sweaty from his dream. The Cat also wakes up with concern on his face as he comes up to his owner to soothe him. After taking a few heavy breaths, Wolf gives the Cat a short scratch behind his ear and apologizes for waking him up before explaining that he had some kind of nightmare. Then he looked down at his new pocketwatch that was sitting on his nightstand and Wolf picks it up by the chain to look at the moon-shaped crystal one more time, hoping that it would calm his nerves. Strangely, the crystal seemed to do that when Wolf notices that it looked a bit brighter than before when Diane gave it to him, but Wolf slightly shakes his head in doubt and says that he needs more sleep. The Cat agrees and sleeps next to Wolf as he hoped that he won't have another bad dream.

Suddenly, a huge turquoise wave of power shot out of nowhere and outside the Bad Guys' home, a dozen citizens, plus Snake, Shark, Piranha, Webs, and even Diane who was at her house, woke up with their eyes glowing turquoise and walking out of their homes like they were in a trance. However, only Wolf and the Cat remained in bed while the whole city was in control of a familiar villain who happened to be behind all of this. He grinned evilly at the sight of the mind-controlled civilians and Wolf's friends as he slyly says "Let the fun begin."

The next morning, the alarm clock in Wolf's bedroom buzzes loudly. Tiredly, Wolf presses the button to turn it off before letting out a long yawn and stretching his arms as he gets out of bed and heads for the bathroom. After he finished brushing his teeth, showering, and putting his usual clothes on then taking his new pocketwatch off his nightstand, Wolf poured some kitty kibble for the Cat to eat then made himself breakfast and read the newspaper while he and the Cat ate. But as he was about to finish, Wolf noticed that his friends hadn't come down to the kitchen for their breakfast. Wolf checks the time on his pocketwatch to see the time: 7:35am, and wonders if his friends are still sleeping in.

After he drinks his coffee and eats the last of his breakfast, Wolf (followed by the Cat) decides to go up to his friends' rooms to wake them up, only to find that their bedrooms were empty and their beds weren't made when he checked Snake's bedroom last. With worried looks, Wolf and the Cat decide to go out into the city to see if their friends are out there as the two head over to the car and drive their way to the City Hall while Wolf tries to call Diane, but gets no response. After the beep, Wolf sends Diane a voice message telling her that he is coming to City Hall and tells her to tell his friends that he's on his way. Just as Wolf finished sending his voice message, he and the Cat notice around them that the city is empty too, like a ghost town.

Later, Wolf and the Cat arrive at the City Hall to see a big crowd standing around, much to his curiosity as he parks and gets out of his car while the Cat waits. Then Wolf walked up to a man to ask him what's going on, but gets no response. Wolf tries again but lets out a shocked scream when the man turns around to face him with a blank expression and his eyes glowing turquoise before walking over to join the crowd. With another curious expression, Wolf decides to see what was really going on as he makes his way through the crowd and goes up the steps of City Hall to see his friends, and Diane standing like statues and having the same glowing eyes and blank expressions like the civilians. As he approaches them, Wolf asks his friends what was going on but they just stayed silent as Wolf tries to get them to talk by snapping his fingers, waving a hand over their faces, and calling out their names, but still getting no word out of them. This was starting to freak Wolf as he mutters to himself in question "What is going on?"

Suddenly, a familiar, sinister voice behind him answered "I'm glad you asked, Wolf." as Wolf spun to face someone he hoped to never see again: Professor Marmalade! Wolf snarkily asks Marmalade what he was doing out of prison. Marmalade explains that he had a little help from his old friend, Cuddles, to break out of prison, and furthermore, he wanted to enjoy the outside world as being in one of those S.U.C.M. cells have been very stuffy. Wolf asks him again, this time in annoyance, what is going on here and why his friends and everyone in the city are acting strange as Marmalade explains the real reason: he is responsible for the citizens' strange behavior because he has control of their minds. As Wolf asks how, Marmalade responds that it's for him to know and for only his archenemy to find out, but as for now, until Wolf can really find out, Marmalade orders the brainwashed Chief Misty Luggins and the other brainwashed police officers to escort Wolf to a "safe and comfy place."

However, before the chief and the police could catch him, Wolf jumps out of their reach and makes a run for it when Marmalade shouts at everyone to get him and they follow Wolf, who managed to get to his car until they cornered him. But just as they were about to grab him, Wolf stops everyone and proclaims that this is all some crazy dream and adds that he is going to pinch himself, then wake up in his bed, and see that everything is normal. Unfortunately, nothing happened when Wolf gave himself a pinch on the arm and let out a painful scream. Looking around the zombie army, he asks awkwardly that he's still awake as Marmalade lets out a laugh before he sarcastically responds yes, then orders his zombie army to catch Wolf again. Quickly, Wolf got into his car but it wouldn't start when suddenly, coming out of the car's hood was a brainwashed Piranha, who had been chewing on the wires to prevent Wolf from escaping. Wolf grabs the Cat, gets out of the car, and runs away from the horde when he realizes he still had his grappling hook with him.

Holding onto the Cat tightly, Wolf makes his escape as he lands on top of the roof buildings, thinking that he was safe. But not for long when Diane (in her Crimson Paw suit) and the other Good Guys appeared behind him and tries to grab him, but suddenly, Wolf felt a tingle in his feet that made him super agile as he ran as fast as any wolf, only faster, and he suddenly stops when he sees that the building in front of him is too far... until Wolf felt that tingle again and he began to jump like a caracal, then he lands on his feet like a cat, which amazes him.

Wolf kept jumping on top of every building, until he went too high and fell right into the nearby woods where he lands in a tree and falls from it with a thud as the Cat fell down on his lap with no injury. Letting out a deep sigh, Wolf lets his beating heart relax and presses his back against the tree while he gave the Cat a soft pat, believing that they were safe... until he hears the zombies entering the forest and the brainwashed Shark gets the scent of his blood when Wolf looks down to see that he got a deep cut on his arm from falling off the tree. Once again, Wolf picks up the Cat and runs while holding onto the cut on his arm to prevent Shark from getting the scent, only to end up getting some blood on his hand. Luckily, there was a stream ahead for Wolf to wash off the blood on his hand and his cut when he realized that he had dropped his pocketwatch!

Thankfully, it wasn’t far from Wolf as the Cat spotted it and picked it up by his little mouth for him. Wolf thanks the Cat before he blew and dusted some dirt off the crescent moon-shaped crystal. Suddenly, the crystal glowed more brighter than before and a bright light appears out of nowhere as Wolf and the Cat shields their eyes before he adjusted them and peered through the blinding light to discover that it's some kind of portal that leads somewhere. Just then behind Wolf, he heard his friends coming closer and were closing in on him as the zombies were getting closer to grabbing Wolf and the Cat who jumped into his hands for safety. Just then, Wolf tripped over a root behind him and later, he and the Cat fell right into the light portal with a scream until everything went white.

Later, the portal pops into some kind of room and Wolf and the Cat shoot right out of it, landing on the floor of a huge workshop-like cabin room. While the Cat shook himself from the daze they had from going through that strange portal, Wolf shakily gets up on his knees when he hears unfamiliar voices and turns to see standing in front of him were a preteen girl with wavy wild hair, a teenage boy with white hair and a staff, another teenage boy with brown hair, a teenage Chinese girl with short black hair and a bag with a violin case in it, a raccoon with a bag strapped around his chest, a fat panda bear wearing pants, and with them was a mustang horse, a yeti, and a black dragon with green eyes, who were crowding around him as Wolf scrambles to his feet, but slipped and fell on his behind, from how they were too close while the brown haired boy said with a chuckle that that's the "big, bad wolf" and comments that he doesn't look all big, bad to him before the pale skinned and white haired boy tells him that where Wolf comes from, everyone fears him before he reformed. The raccoon and panda approach Wolf, then the panda examines the dull claws while the raccoon opens his mouth to examine his teeth, and notes that he'd seen way scarier big animals like Vincent the bear, but adds that Wolf was low on the scary ranking level as the panda agrees and adds that the wolves back in his homeworld are way scary-looking than Wolf whom he calls a bit scrawny, much to Wolf's offense.

The wavy haired girl senses Wolf's discomfort and tells everyone to give him some space as she helps him up, then introduces herself as Lucky and introduces Wolf to her mustang friend named Spirit. Then introduces the other six as RJ, Hiccup, Yi, Po, and Jack Frost and the young yeti and black dragon, as Everest and Toothless. After Wolf says his hello, Lucky notices his cut on the right side of his arm that makes her concerned.

Wolf says with a sigh that he got himself into a 'little accident.' Lucky decides to take care of that as she asks Jack, who nods, and she calls two elves to bring out a chair for Wolf to sit down. Then, a yeti comes in with a silver tray holding a bottle of cleansing alcohol, white cleaning cloths, tweezers, a pair of scissors, and a bunch of cotton balls as Lucky got to work on cleaning the blood off of the cut, making Wolf wince. As Lucky was done, she then bandages it up with a piece of her sash she cuts off with the scissors since there weren't any bandages in the workshop because the elves used it to aid three of the reindeer who had a sprained knee last week.

While Lucky was busy wrapping the sash piece around an alcohol-soaked cloth covering Wolf's cut and the Cat was seemingly playing with one of the jingling silver bells on one of the elves' pointy hats, Wolf sees Hiccup talking to Jack Frost about something about being this chosen one and a crystal. As if sensing Wolf’s confusion, Jack tells him that it might be hard for him to believe but they need to fill him in on what's going on. Lucky finishes tying a knot on the sash piece around Wolf's cut and he questions if it's about the strange morning he had where his friends became mindless zombies that almost tried to catch him until he fell into a weird portal that brought him here... wherever here was, because from the looks of the place Wolf saw around him, he could tell that he was not in Greater Los Angeles anymore. And to top that off, Wolf asks what was the deal with the crystal Jack and Hiccup were talking about.

Jack Frost leads Wolf to a giant crystal that emerges from the floor and the light from the moon shines on it and it creates a vision that shows Professor Marmalade. As Wolf looked up at the vision the crystal was making, Jack Frost explains that last month, Pitch Black (aka the Boogeyman) had teamed up with Wolf's archenemy, Professor Marmalade, who used a machine to travel to different worlds and has every villain team up with him to take over every world by powering up energy sapping towers that gives the villains powers to control everything and everyone.

Wolf nods slowly, knowing that his first question was answered, but then adds that Jack hasn't answered his second question about a crystal he and Hiccup were talking about as Wolf pulls out his gift from Diane gave him back home out of his pocket to show Jack and Hiccup. When Jack looked down at the pocketwatch, his eyes slowly widened as he took the pocketwatch out of Wolf's hands and says with excitement that he knew the Dream Crystal would choose Wolf just like he had seen the vision, much to Wolf's shock and confusion that he was starting to get impatient until he snaps, causing everyone to get shocked and stare at him with bewildered expressions. Seeing everyone in this state, Wolf clears his throat apologetically, saying that he just wants his second question answered. With a sigh, Jack Frost decides to answer Wolf's second question as he hands him back his pocketwatch and the vision of the big crystal changes.

Looking up at the crystal's vision, Wolf begins to listen to Jack, who explains to him that long ago after the defeat of Pitch Black, he and the Guardians: North, Bunnymund, Tooth, and the Sandman created the Dream Crystal to prevent any more of Pitch's darkness or any other evil from threatening the world. However, the Guardians knew that someone would try to steal it and use it for evil, even if they were to protect it, so Jack came up with the idea to contain the crystal by making a silver pocketwatch that he, North, and Bunnymund made for it, then have the Sandman hide it away in the workshop until the day when Pitch Black returns, it will awaken to find someone to wield its powers. And today, it did find someone: Wolf!

After a few seconds of silence, Wolf holds up his hands and responds that's just crazy, much to everyone's surprise as he apologizes before adding that he only means that this is all too much to take in: a bunch of villains teaming up to take over some worlds, being chased by your friends turned into zombies, and then having to fall into a portal that takes you to a weird place. Not only that, the talk about the Dream Crystal, as Jack Frost had called it, choosing Wolf is just making things all complicated. He asks why would the Dream Crystal choose him as Wolf brings out his hand to gesture to Yi, Lucky, Hiccup, Toothless, and Spirit, saying that the crystal would've chosen either one of them, or even Po and RJ, whom Wolf calls a "rat with the bushy tail and the mask."

Feeling offended by the comment, RJ marches up to Wolf and firmly states to him that he is a raccoon, not a rat, and notes that raccoons are way more cuter and smarter than "big, bad, dumb wolves" like Wolf. With his eyes narrowing down, Wolf gives RJ a challenging glare when Lucky snaps at RJ and gives him a firm shake of her head that makes the raccoon back off from Wolf who admits that it's only because he thinks that he's not cut out for the job, which RJ seems to agree with.

Lucky walks up to Wolf and says that he's scared, which he tries to dismiss with a wave of his hand and a small laugh, but frowns and again admits it. Wolf adds that he has dealt with Marmalade before as well as the others have dealt with their enemies, but asks his new friends how he'll deal with Marmalade and these other villains he never heard of by himself-even with a pocketwatch with a magic crystal on it.

Understanding, Jack Frost walks up to Wolf, knowing what he was going through that he explains to Wolf about when he had his doubts about being a Guardian when the Man in the Moon chose him, but even if it took some time, he was able to accept his own purpose after discovering his center, which Wolf doesn't get as Jack explains a center is a "purpose." Still confused, Wolf asks Jack if he means that this crystal is like his purpose now or rather, center, as Jack says with a shrug that it kind of, it but what he means is that the crystal chose Wolf because it's seen more than just a scary, big bad wolf or the criminal he was in the past. It has seen the great things Wolf has done, despite the criminal mistakes he had made in the past. Plus, with her hand placed on Wolf's shoulder to comfort him, Lucky adds that he doesn't have to do it alone-because he now has her and the rest of these other heroes to help him. And whatever happens, they'll have his back as his old friends back home have. The kids, Po, and RJ form a pact and Lucky asks Wolf to join in, but he still has his doubts when Jack reminds him that the fate of their worlds is in their hands, and right now, they need Wolf because he now holds the Dream Crystal. With his ears flattened, Wolf is still unsure about this until Lucky walks up to him and places her hands on his face to have him look into his eyes as their foreheads gently touched. As they were eye to eye with each other, Lucky says to Wolf that it's okay that he's afraid, but gives him a reminder that he has the Dream Crystal and everyone needs him. Then gives Wolf a helpful tip that her mother, Milagro said to her "Be fearless."

As her words sank into him, Wolf took a brief glance down at his pocketwatch and the Dream Crystal, Wolf thought back at Marmalade taking control of L.A. City and his friends being mind controlled by him. Finally, with a sigh, he says that he's in and joins in the pact. After the pact was completed, Hiccup asks where they should start first. Po suggests that Wolf has the Dream Crystal so they should let him decide as Wolf looked down at his pocketwatch again where he could see the crystal glowing again, as if it was talking to him. With one last glance down at the Dream Crystal and looking up at his new friends, Wolf replies that they can start by going to RJ's world. RJ gives Wolf a slight thumbs up as Wolf tries to activate another portal that will take them to Suburia, but nothing happens. Then, Wolf remembers how he made the portal appear when he was almost caught by Marmalade's zombies as he rubs on the Dream Crystal like before and just as he expected, a portal appeared in front of them!

Everyone walks through the portal together, but Wolf tells the Cat to stay with the yetis and the elves for his own safety, and promises that they'll be back. After Wolf goes through the portal last, the group landed on green grass and found themselves in a forest with a huge, long hedge in front of it as the portal behind them shrinks into a small circle and disappears. RJ leads his friends to a log, where they see a group of other little animals and a Siamese cat.

When the gang approached the animal group, the small animals freaked out while the male adult possum played dead and the Siamese cat went to their defense and glared up at Wolf, who backed off and held up his hands in defense. Quickly, RJ jumps in front of his family and holds up his hands to assure them that Wolf is a good wolf and he won't eat them. Although they were still suspicious, the small animals stepped up to Wolf who greeted them with an awkward wave and a wolfish grin that made the male possum play dead again until the young female possum brought him back up, making Wolf think that the two are father and daughter- although he couldn't see the resemblance.

With a sigh, RJ introduces Wolf to his gang: Verne the turtle, Hammy the squirrel, Stella the skunk, Ozzie and Heather the possums, Lou and Penny and their kids Bucky, Quillo, and Spike, and Tiger the cat and former pet of Gladys Sharp. Before Wolf could ask who Gladys was, RJ quickly explains to him that she is a crazy lady who is the president of the Homeowners Association... until she got arrested for buying an illegal machine from the Vernimator, the first villain that they need to stop in this world. Yi asks where they should find the Verminator and the tower as Verne points out that he saw the Verminator loading a wagon full of cages filled with animals he caught and say that he was going back to his headquarters to program them into his minions that will power up the tower. That was where they'll need to go.

The team heads over to a long hedge that seems to never end, when Po asks how they'll get over it as Jack Frost and Hiccup riding Toothless gets over the hedge. Then eyeing the hedge as he stepped forward, Everest hums a melodious tune that seemed to make the hedge move on it's own much to Wolf and everyone else's amazement. After the hedge opened like a gate, everyone stepped into the lawn of a well-mowed backyard filled with expensive garden decor and RJ lead them into the suburban streets. Wolf was intrigued by how the houses lined up together like soldiers in white and how the front lawns were perfectly mowed, but he was surprised to see that there was no one around at this time, which meant that luck was on their side so they should head out to the Vertech building without any trouble, RJ points out confidently. But Wolf begins to have a bad feeling about this when he places his hand inside his pocket holding the pocketwatch and he felt it becoming warmer when it vibrated while humming a soft but loud, on-key melody. RJ has a stern talk with Wolf, saying that he doesn't know what Lucky and Jack Frost see in him, but RJ still thinks that Wolf is just a "big, bad, stupid wolf," and the wrong guy to obtain the Dream Crystal on top of that. Wolf curtly replies to RJ that Lucky and Jack have faith in him, and asks RJ why he's doubting him when they just got to know each other already.

As the gang finally left Suburia, Jack Frost noticed the look on Wolf's face and his hand was still in his pocket that he asked him if he was okay. Turning to face Jack, Wolf replies unsurely that he's fine, except he can't help but feel that they were being followed or watched and he could feel in his pocket that the pocketwatch was still vibrating and humming like crazy that he takes it out to see it shaking in his hand, like it was telling him something. As Wolf shows Jack the pocketwatch again, the guardian of fun peered at it to see that the Dream Crystal really was humming and glowing brighter than ever, then remarks that the Dream Crystal never does something like that.

Unless...

When Wolf questions Jack who had an agitated expression forming on his face, Jack tells everyone to take alert as something dangerous is coming. And as he said his warning, a bunch of small animals: rabbits, weasels, badgers, and rats with weapons and strange devices attached to them, popped right out of the bushes around them! Everyone got into attacking or defensive positions and began to fight off the armed and dangerous animals one by one, while Tiger lead Verne and the rest of his and RJ's family to a tree for safety, but not realizing that another badger was hidden behind there. Wolf sees that the badger was heading for RJ and shouts at him to look out before it could strike the raccoon with his wrench! Luckily, Wolf came in time to protect RJ as he quickly pulled out his pocketwatch without thinking when suddenly, the Dream Crystal glowed brighter and a light solid force field appeared in front of them until grew so big that it knocked off all of the mind controlled animals off their feet and the light grew brighter that it almost blinded everyone until the forcefield shrinks back into the Dream Crystal and the light fades as everything around them goes back to normal, except with a few knocked out animals out of the control of the helmets. After the light died out, Wolf took slow, heavy breaths and looked down at the Dream Crystal with bewildered eyes while whispering "Did... I do that?".

RJ was wide-eyed with shock at what Wolf did when Yi, Lucky, Verne, and Jack ran to them and asked them if they were okay. With a few breaths, RJ responds that they are okay- thanks to Wolf. Hearing that said from RJ made Wolf smile gratefully at him when he remembered their mission. The gang resume their way to the VermTech building, all while leaving the knocked out henchmen lying on the ground until later, they've finally arrived at VermTech where a huge statue holding up an ax was looming over them. But the statue wasn't the one thing Wolf was looking as he stared up at the tower that loomed over them, and it was powered by so much energy.

Hiccup pronounces that they're here and asks how they'll get over the gate as Lucky suggests that he and Toothless can fly over it and open the gates, but RJ rejects that as the Verminator has set up traps for any living thing over on the side of the gates the last time he and his friends came here. Wolf asks RJ if that ever happened as RJ replied yes and adds that the last time they've been in VermTech, they had to save Heather from Dwayne and then blow up his work building. As RJ finished, Jack Frost walks up to the security system, thinking for a bit. Then with a smirk, he uses his power of cold to touch the system that it freezes and shuts it down.

Now that the security system was frozen, Hiccup and Toothless flew over the gates, that were frozen into ice by Jack, and Toothless breaks them open with his hingelegs. The gang heads inside the building, where they see an elevator up ahead at the end of the hall as they rush in it and waited until the elevator doors opened to see a huge workroom active with henchmen at work and the Verminator was multitasking putting more mind control devices on the helpless creatures while keeping the tower at full power! When the Verminator looked down to see the gang in the workroom, Jack Frost shouts to him to stop his work and RJ adds that they're here to shut the tower down.

Despite not understanding the raccoon, Dwayne shoots back that its already too late as Marmalade's tower is sucking up the world of Over the Hedge and has control of every creature that he (Dwayne) has in his control. And when all the animals are under the Verminator's control, Marmalade's tower will keep on energizing with all of the Over the Hedge world's energy. Lucky protests that'll not happen as they're ready to stop the tower and save the animals under the Verminator's control. With a mocking laugh, the Verminator taunts them good luck and summons more of his henchmen to attack!
