Plot
The episode begins with Zippy waking up and realizing that the new Fun House is in town and tells his friends about it. Mr. Baxworth warns Zippy and Willy to watch out for What's-It's-Face because he lives in that Fun House. He explains that What's-It's-Face is his arch-rival, and has been pulling silly crimes for years.

Meanwhile at Zippy's house, Flambo is walking nearby his dog house. He stops and checks to make sure no one can see him. He goes into his dog house and turns on his TV. Bubbles the fish informs him that Dr. Whiskers has bought "80% of the country’s tin foil." Flambo must find out why and stop him. Before Flambo leaves, Bubbles reminds him to maintain his cover as a "normal domestic pet." Giving the fish a quick salute, he rushes off.

Zippy and his friends arrive at the Fun House and Ceela says that they won't go there at all because of what Mr. Baxworth said about What's-It's-Face, but she then immediately gives in and goes with them. They start riding rides and eating food, and after throwing up from eating too much food, they continue riding into more rides.

Nearby, Flambo bursts in through a doggy door at Dr. Whiskers' appartment. Dr. Whiskers greets him with: "Ah, Flambo The Dog! What an unexpected surprise. And by unexpected, I mean completely expected!" After trapping Flambo, he informs him of his plan to move the Eastern Seaboard (now covered in tin foil) to the West by using a "Magnetism Magnifier," which will reverse the rotation of the Earth. While Whiskers is talking, Flambo tries getting free of the robot arms holding him, but then notices a screw on the ground at his feet. Looking around him, he formulates a plan...

While the gang were having a great time, Zippy sees a Carnival game called Laugh Ball. Zippy then starts playing the game. Everyone and even Zippy's friends, impressed by his winning streak, starts cheering as he keeps winning. As Wet Willy watches, he then notices someone else playing, that person lost and got sprayed with poisonous laughing gas, leaving the person all hollow and laughing maniacally and uncontrollably. Willy tries to warn Zippy about what he saw, but Zippy is distracted with the game. The game then goes down into the Inkwell, where What's-It's-Face is seen below, looking at all the souls he’s collected to the soul counter going up and replacing it with laughing venom. While he dances, he notices the laugh counter has surprisingly stopped. he starts banging it with his fists, thinking it’s broken. What's-It's-Face noticed no souls are coming through, so he looks through a little telescope that went above ground and sees everyone ,in one part of the Fun House, cheering for Zippy, who is still winning.

Flambo then starts to battle him with wrenches and strikes the same tail of Dr. Whiskers that the screw hit. During the fight, Dr. Whiskers runs over to the Magnetism Magnifier and turns it on; telling Flambo he is too late and it cannot be stopped now. But the Eastern seaboard did not move to the west, just the tin foil, causing a two-ton ball of tin foil going, at two hundred miles an hour to head straight for them. They both frantically try to turn it off.

What's-It's-Face then shows up behind the boys and everyone starts to run away in terror, making What's-It's-Face say they "adore him". What's-It's-Face then approaches Zippy, which makes him mess up his throw. The ball then rolls into the bottom slot, which means Zippy lost. Meanwhile, Flambo is now helping Whiskers in trying to move the Magnetism Magnifier, but it will not budge, so he hooks the magnet to a helicopter, causing the magnet to go with it. Dr. Whiskers is happy about being saved but is then moved (along with the rest of the tallest part of the building) by the tin foil ball that crashes into it.

As Zippy and Wet Willy start wheezing, What's-It's-Face gets the machine to spray them with laughing vemon. However, Ceela is able to destroy the machine. The gang starts running away and What's-It's-Face chases them in his clown car. What's-It's-Face throws fire from his pitchfork and burn the attractions while they land onto rides, take pictures in marine bodies, and go inside a Funhouse, now called "House of Horror". Zippy and Wet Willy lure What's-It's-Face into shooting the Laugh Ball Machine instead of them, freeing all the souls entrapped. They flee the scene and return to their bodies and curing the laughing venom out of them, leaving What's-It's-Face hitting himself in anger. As his Fun House is breaking down, What's-It's-Face insists to get revenge on Zippy and his friends thinking that they know how to have fun just as the cops showed up.

What's-It's-Face is last seen taken to a local mental hospital in jail, locked up in a straight jacket and a muzzle, witnessed by Zoomie and Jolly. However, Mr. Red gives him a cake which has a nail file inside. He swears to get out one day and destroy Mr. Red, Zippy and the others once again.
