Plot:

Ice King encounters the Other, the leader of an extraterrestrial race known as the Kee-Oth. In exchange for retrieving the Ice Block, a powerful energy source of unknown potential, the Other promises Ice King an army with which he can subjugate Earth. Numbuh 1 (Nigel Uno), british leader and head operative of Sector V, keeper of the Book of KND and current Earth representative to the elite Galactic KND, and his lieutenant Agent Numbuh 5 (Abigail "Abby" Lincoln) and Numbuh 3 (Kuki Sanban) arrive at a remote research facility during an evacuation, where Numbuh 4 (Wallabee Beetles) is leading a research team experimenting on the Ice Block. Numbuh 2 (Hogarth "Hoagie" P. Gilligan Jr.) explains that the object has begun radiating an unusual form of energy. The Ice Block suddenly activates and opens a wormhole, allowing Ice King to reach Earth. Ice King takes the Ice Block and uses his scepter to enslave Numbuh 4 and a few other agents, including Mordecai and Rigby to aim him in there getaway.

In response to the attack, Nigel reactivates the "Toonvengers Initiavite". Princess Bubblegum is sent to Calcutta to recruit Jake the Dog to trace the Ice Block through its gamma radiation emissions. Hoagie visits Professor Utonium to have The Powerpuff Girls review Wallabee research, and Nigel approaches Rex Salazar with an assignment to retrieve the Ice Block.

In Stuttgart, Mordecai and Rigby steals iridium needed to stabilize the Ice Block's power while Ice King causes a distraction, leading to a brief confrontation with Salazar, Jake, and Blossom that ends with Ice King surrender. While Ice King is being escorted to Sector V, Finn the Human arrives and frees him, hoping to convince him to abandon his plan and return to the Land of Ooo. After a confrontation with Buttercup and Rex, Finn agrees to take Ice King to Sector V flying aircraft carrier. Upon arrival, Ice King is imprisoned while Jake and Bubbles attempt to locate the Ice Block.

The Toonvengers become divided, both over how to approach Ice King and the revelation that Sector V plans to harness the Ice Block to develop weapons as a deterrent against hostile extraterrestrials. As the group argues, Rigby and Ice King other possessed agents attack the aircraft, disabling one of its engines in flight and causing Jake to transform into the Suit. Blossom and Rex work to restart the damaged engine, and Finn attempts to stop the Suit 's rampage. Bubblegum reluctantly fights Mordecai, and knocks him unconscious, breaking Ice King's mind. Ice King escapes and ejecting Finn from the airship, while Jake falls to the ground after attacking a jet fighter. Nigel uses to motivate the Toonvengers into working as a team. Blossom and Rex realize that for Ice King, simply defeating them will not be enough; he needs to overpower them publicly to validate himself as ruler of Earth. Ice King uses the Ice Block, in conjuction with a device Wallabee built, to open a wormhole above the Townsville Hall to the Kee-Oth clone fleet in space, launching his invasion.

Blossom, Bubbles, Buttercup, Rex Salazar, Finn, Mordecai, Rigby, Bubblegum rally in defense of Toon City, the wormhole's location. Jake arrives and transforms into the Suit, and together the Toonvengers battle the Kee-Oth while evacuating civilians. Jake finds Ice King and beats him into submission. Bubblegum makes her way to the wormhole generator, where Wallabee, freed from Ice King mind control, reveal that Ice King scepter can be used to shut down the generator. Meanwhile, Hoagie superiors from the World Security Council attempt to end the invasion by launching a nuclear missile. Blossom intercepts the missile and takes it through the wormhole toward the Kee-Oth fleet. The missile detonates, destroying the mothership and disabling their forces on Earth. Blossom runs out of power, and she falls back through the wormhole just as Rex closes it. Blossom goes into freefall, but Bubbles saves her from crashing into the ground. In the aftermath, Finn, Jake, and Bubblegum returns Ice King and the Ice Block to Ooo, while Nigel expresses confidence that the Toonvengers will return if and when they are needed.

In a mid-credits scene, the Other confers with his master about the failed attack on Earth. In a post-credits scene, the Toonvengers eat in silence at a shawarma restaurant.
