But when Course O Ball 3 (O3) gets stolen by an inspector on mistake for a gumball, the Putt-Putt Patrol must get "it" back.The movie was released on November 20, 2020 aside an Illumination Short, The Night Penguin.

Plot
Inside the Alphabet Golf Centre, when humans aren't playing golf, the golf balls come to life. There are three individual rulers: A1, M2 and Z3. They are in charge of looking after the other golf balls. One day, when Z3 is tragically destroyed when somebody gets too aggressive with "it", a new ruler is assigned, W1. But W1 is very clumsy, and "it" is very disorganised when an inspector comes in the middle of the night. All of the balls scatter, including O3, hiding in the basement. The inspector picks "it" up, mistaking it for a gumball. In the morning, at roll call, all the balls realise O3 is gone, and when A1 asks where the last place anyone saw O3, and D2 says the basement. So the balls look in the basement, but they don't find O3. Meanwhile, the inspector, along with O3, ride in a taxi through the city. O3 attempts to sneak out, but gets stuck when the inspector puts up the window. The other golf balls, using a laptop, are able to locate O3, still stuck in a taxi, riding to a safe centre. The Putt-Putt Patrol sneak on a bus to ride towards O3. They have to make sure people don't notice they're alive, so they go really quickly and hop on a bus. It is a no-roof bus, so when W1 looks out the back, "it" falls off but hangs on. When W1 asks A1 for help, A1 refuses. W1 begs and begs, but A1 says "it" has "better things to do". So when W1 falls off, "it" gets ran over by the bus, causing the bus to tip. E2 asks A1 why "it" didn't save W1. A1 replies by shoving E2 into the wall. Realising A1's true psychopathic nature, M2 runs up and pushes A1, but A1 swings M2 into the sky. The bus falls on it's front, exploding. The Putt-Putt Patrol run towards the safe centre, but they don't find O3 in the taxi window, so they rush into the safe centre, when A1 grabs a now dented M2 and points a sharp knife into "it's" chin. The rest of the bunch, not noticing M2, look in every safe, but finally finds a safe that is literally labelled "O3". When the Putt-Putt Patrol sneak in the safe, they find a lot of boxes. E3 tells everyone to dive into a box. They don't find O3, but they do find a rather angry A1, holding a slitted M2. A1 runs around with the knife, but when all hope seemed lost, O3 jumps out of the nearby bin, opens the safe and jumps on A1, pinning "it" down. X2 grabs a hot glue gun and pours glue all over the side of the door and closes. They all escape before it hardens, except for A1. The glue also causes the inspector to not be able to open the door. The rest of the Putt-Putt Patrol leave to go back to the Alphabet Golf Centre.
