After a day of playtime, Vicki is sleeping in her bed. All her toys are tucked in next to her as she sounds asleep. All but Sherman, Edmund, Penny and Ford, the 4 have carefully slipped under the covers.

Vicki stirs, moving an arm, forcing Sherman, Penny and Ford to freeze, legs in the air while Edmund fell to the ground. Luckily, the girl went back to sleep, unaware of what's going on. The 4 then tiptoed across the bed and look around the room, hoping they'll find some way to get home from here.

The 4 find Vicki's backpack hanging from the door handle. Maybe there's some hints on how to get back to Trent in there! As Edmund climbed up to a chair, Sherman, Penny, and Ford push a chair to the door as Edmund lifts the cape.

"1125 Gilford," Edmund said to Ford quietly upon finding the address on the backpack.

"Good." Ford said with a nod. "Now we just..."

"Wait, guys, where are you doing?" Ferb ask surprised. This prompts our heroes to turn around and see a certain group of toys puzzled.

"As much as we wanna stay here, the boys and I gotta go." Penny explains to the toys with a smile, prompting the toys to gasp in shock.

"Buford, you told me that they enjoyed being played with again!" Eugene said, concerned.

"Wait, you're leaving?" Dot asks, concerned.

"But, didn't you two have fun today?" Buford asked in concern.

"Sure we did. The most kind of fun we've had in years." Edmund said with a sigh. "Look, it's nothing against Vicki. We've really enjoyed being played with today....."

"It's just...we both belong to someone else." Sherman said as he holds up the shoe that had the name 'Trent' is written on it'.

"Uh...who in the word is 'Tnert," Buford ask as he glances at the name in confusion. Of course, they're looking at the shoe the wrong way as Penny chuckles.

"No, I think it's pronounced 'Tnert.'" Ferb explains to Buford clearly.

"Guys, come on, it's 'Trent'." Betty said to her friends seriously. "They belong to a boy named Trent."

"Right to us, he's our version of Vicki, our friend and owner." Ford said in concern. "Sorry guys, but we must get back to him."

"Trent will be leaving soon and we gotta get home." Sherman said in agreement. The trio needs to get back to Trent's place before he leaves for college.

"Where's home," Louise asks in curiosity.

"It's on 2583 Rayburne Avenue. I know you all are sad to see me, Penny and Ford wanting to leave and we understand...but we want to go back to Trent; badly."

The toys looked sad, but they understood. It wouldn't be fair to have toys away from their owner, even though it is sad to see them leave.

"We're on it." Isabella said to Sherman, Penny and Ford with a smile. "Louise?"

"Well, there's these toys that know where the computer is." Louise then said.

"And where would that be?" Edmund asks, curiously.

"Kenny's room." Jimmy Pesto Jr. said. "Luan can get you there."

Speaking of, another toy arrived as she has prominent buck teeth, which sport braces on her upper and lower teeth, and light brown hair worn up in a large ponytail by a yellow scrunchie, with two long protruding hairs sticking out from the center of her forehead.

She dresses in a white sleeveless shirt, a yellow skirt with a square pattern, yellow socks with a line pattern that are worn all the way up, and brown shoes. She also wears three pink flowers, one on her shirt and one on each shoe, that serve as gag squirt-flowers. Her name is Luan Loud.

"You called me?" Luan then said, speaking in a tomboyish chauffeur's voice.

Meanwhile in a storage closet in the daycare, Jimmy awoke as he found himself tied up on a timeout chair, surrounded Dipper's group. He struggled valiantly to get out of the chair, but he's tied up.

"Untie me, you cowards!" Jimmy angrily said. "I demand to talk to Timmy Turner!!!"

"Zip it, Clark Kent!" Dipper then said. "You're not going anywhere unless we say otherwise."

"Yeah, you wen't too far this time!" Patrick angrily said.

"Patrick! You're Spongebob's best friend! How could you do this to him?!" Jimmy then scolded the seastar toy.

"Jimmy, you can't always expect my usual brand of....." Patrick said, shrugging.

"Shut up. No one wants to hear that." Jimmy said, rolling his eyes at the thought of Patrick using a modern spongebob quote as an excuse. Then, the door creaked open as everyone saw Timmy Turner, looking concerned.

"Dipper? Guys?" Timmy asks, raising an eyebrow.

"Sorry, Turner, he got out." Dipper then said.

"Got out?" Timmy asks, concerned. Then, he walked over to Jimmy and untied him. "Oh, nononononono. That's not how we treat our guests!"

"Thank you." Jimmy then said to Timmy as he casts a dark look at Dipper. "Oh, and there's been a mistake, Timmy."

"A mistake?" Timmy asked surprised.

"Yeah....The children in the Caterpillar Room are not age-appropriate for me and my friends. We respectfully request a transfer to the Butterfly Room." Jimmy said, shrugging. This prompts Timmy to chuckle.

"Okay, request granted!" Timmy said, happily.

"What....? Are you kidding?" Dipper whined.

"Dipper, hush. This Toy's shown initiative! Leadership! Why, I'd say we found ourselves a Keeper!" Timmy laughs as he raises Jimmy's arm like Jimmy is a World Champion! His Gang applauds dutifully. "You hear that? A keeper!"

Looks like they have a new friend for the butterfly room! Jimmy looked surprised at this, one moment, they were about to ice him, and now, they're acting like they're friends with him again.......well, except Dipper, who's completely jealous.

"We're calling you up to the big leagues!" Timmy said as he wrapped his arm around Jimmy. "From now on, you'll be treated like a god among humans, the way you were meant to be treated among other toys!"

"Awesome!" Jimmy exclaimed with a grin. "Let me go get my friends."

As soon as Jimmy was about to head out the door, Timmy laughed as he said, "Well, unfortunately, the invite is for you only. After all, those kids need something to play with."

"I'm sorry, but my friends are in there." Jimmy said, concerned. "They don't belong there, you know that, right?"

"Of course I do." Timmy then said. "But to us, Toys are like human beings, and the children are like gods, and we have to appease them one way or another. What matters is that you need to be there for a kid when you need them, right? And about some toys.....well....For the good of our community -- we ask the newer toys, the stronger ones, to take on the hardships the rest of us can't bear anymore. You wouldn't wanna let anyone down, right?

Jimmy looks down as soon as he heard that. Timmy did have a good point. It wouldn't be fair to take the other toys out of the Caterpillar Room and keep many kids from playing with something. Especially if they're enjoying them.

"Well.........if you put it like that, you do have a good point." Jimmy said, sighing. Timmy smiles, looks like things are gonna work out after all! But then, Jimmy said, "But I'll have to turn down the offer. Families stick together, and we're a family."

"Oh....so you're a family man. I respect that." Timmy said, as his smile fades, being replaced by that of darkness and of upset nature. It's as if the word 'family' has upset the bear for some unknown reason. He then shouted, "Put the God back in the time out chair!"

Without warning, Tommy grabs Jimmy, slamming the boy genius toy back into the Time-Toy chair, much to his horror. What's going on?

"Turner! What the heck's going on?!" Jimmy demanded.

"Bring in Pinky and the Brain." Timmy said, grinning evilly as Dipper whistles.

"Found it!" Someone is heard speaking from a shelf above the bad guys a while later. A row of files are cluttered as a toy, a white furred lab rat toy by the name "Pinky" pulls out a playing card. "I found that ace!"

Another Lab Rat toy shoves Pinky out of his way. His name is "The Brain". Brain then said, "You'll have to excuse my friend."

Brain then pulls out a booklet and threw it to the ground towards Timmy. As the Buck tooth toy picks it up, Jimmy yelps as it's an instruction manual.......for him!! Timmy opens the booklet as he said, "Remove screws to get access to battery compartment...'"

Tommy holds down Jimmy as Patrick walks over with a screwdriver. He then proceeded to us the screwdriver to remove the screws from the boy toy's panel, making him scream in horror.

"Now...'to return your Jimmy Action Figure to its original settings, simply set the switch from 'Play' to 'Demo'..." Timmy said, nonchalantly with an evil grin.

"No, I can't be a part of this!" Jimmy said.

"Then what can you be a part of?" Eustace Stritch then said, grinning evilly.

Eustace opens the panel and finds the mode switch which is on 'Play' mode. He nods as he reach for the switch, ready to pull the switch to 'Demo'.

"No!" Jimmy said as he tried to struggle his way out of Tommy's grip. "You won't get away with this!"

"I already have." Timmy said. "Because now, a toy god.......bends to my will."

The rest of Trent's toys sat near the Caterpillar Room door in concern. Jimmy has been gone for a while now. Where is he? Suddenly, a scream is heard, making the alarmed toys turn in fear. Did something happen to Jimmy?

"What was that?!" Cindy #2 asked, concerned.

"It came from there!" Cindy replied.

"Who brought the tartar sauce?" Ed asked, cluelessly.

"Well, we should probably see what it is." Gerald then said.

"Whatever it might be, it must be unpleasant." Edd then said, concerned.

"I got it!" Gumball said as he went to the door and removed her remaining eye. He held it under the door as she sweeps the thing back and forth to look in the hallway outside.

The toys gathered around Gumball as Helga asks, "See anything yet?"

"Buttered toast?" Ed asks.

"Shut up, Ed." Eddy replied annoyed.

"Nothin' but darkness....and books.....and....." Gumball then said, but he sees a vision of a familiar guitar playing teenager, which prompts him to gasp. "..........TRENT!"

"What?" The toys gasp in shock. How could that be? Unless his friends Geoff, DJ and Brody crashed into the daycare by accident and are trying to find the janitor and try to find an explanation about this.

"What?" Eddy asks, impatiently.

"Trent?!" Gumball exclaimed.

"How can that be? Trent threw you guys out!" Cindy #2 said, surprised

"Wait! My eye!" Gumball then said, surprised, he then shielded his only eye, using his missing eye to see Trent's room, and that Trent himself is carrying another box, preparing for college most likely.

"Alright, he's packing up...." Gumball explains, until a familiar beagle ruins the moment by going under the table and blocks Gumball's view. "Come on, Snoopy! Get out of the way!"

Snoopy yawns and turns as he leaves, allowing Gumball to have a better view.

Gumball sees Trent looking in the attic as his Uncle asks what he's up to, then Dwayne Sr. is looking a little sheepish once Trent is talking about something in the attic, and Dwayne Sr. sheepishly admits something and Trent facepalms himself in disbelief and disappointment. This could only mean one thing: Trent didn't throw them out after all!

"Wait a minute, why is Trent so mad? Unless....." Gumball then said, concerned.

As he placed his eye back in him, Gumball yelped, "He's looking for us! Trent is looking for us!"

The toys reacted in shock. Is that true? Was Sherman telling the truth?

"Why would Trent be looking for the same toys that he threw out?" Cindy #2 asks.

"Unless...he never wanted to threw us out at all!" Carl Wheezer then said.

"Hot dang!" Carl Lewis then said, happily. "So Trent does want us!"

Toothless laughed with Ed as he dances with the halfwitted Ed boy toy.

"Who brought the tartar sauce?" Ed then said, happily.

"Wow, all this time I thought we would end up in the landfill! My, I have never felt stupid in my life." Edd then said.

Now that they realize Sherman, Penny, Ford and Edmund were right!

"I think he did mean to put us in the attic!" Dani then said.

Mabel said, worried, "Well, then Sherman was telling the truth!" All this time, Trent was intending to put them in the attic, and Sherman, Penny, Edmund and Ford knew the whole time, and they didn't believe them! This is the 2nd time a misunderstanding happened, and they feel bad about it.

"Holy cow!" Arnold then said.

"And Gumball didn't believe him!" Gene chuckled, relieved.

"Hey, you didn't believe him first!" Gumball snapped.

"We should probably get going." Cindy then exclaimed, they have to get back to Trent before the boy they cared so deeply for moves on with his life and heads off to college!

But a creak ruined the moment at the toys turned to see Timmy Turner and his crew.

"Timmy....!" Cindy said.

"Hello, everyone. How're you all doin' this fine evening?" Timmy chuckled.

"Oh, thank heavens! Have you seen Jimmy?" Cindy said, concerned.

"He's fine! Fine as a dandy on Christmas Eve!" Timmy smiled, sinisterly.

"There's been a misunderstanding, we gotta go." Dani then said. "If we missed something important, all my parts will fall off."

"What? You just got here. And in the nick of time, too. We were running low on volunteers for the Little Ones! They just love new Toys, now don't they?" Timmy then said.

Gumball said, skeptically. "We've been chewed on, drooled on, and kicked around!"

"Basically like a 1800's fair!" Carl Wheezer said, and again, everyone was confused by what he said.

"How does that make any sense?!" Timmy then said, angrily shouting. It's as if he never heard it before in his life.

"People die at the fair." Both Cindys said.

"People die at the fair." Gumball said, skeptically.

"Look at my pocket book!" Dani then said, holding out her chewed up purse. "How do you expect me to go home like this?! And don't even get me started on my Thermos!"

"Here's the thing, sweet thing, you're not going anywhere." Timmy then said as he bends down in amusement, scaring Dani.

"Who do you think you're talking to?" Gumball snapped as he stepped up in anger. No one should have the right to talk to his wife like that without the respect she deserves. "She has over thirty accessories and we deserve more respec-"

And without any remorse, Timmy takes the cat toy's mouth and laughs.

"There, that's better. I have a mute button for this type of situation." Timmy joked, prompting the others to laugh.

Our heroes couldn't believe what they've seen and heard. One moment, Turner is a nice guy and now, he's acting like a tyrant who cares about himself only?

"Hey! No one takes my idiot husband's mouth away but me!" Dani angrily shouted.

Timmy's gang proceed to play keep away from Gumball, taunting every hero in that room. Gumball then grabs his mouth back, ruining the game.

Cindy and her twin have had enough of this whole charade as they simultaneously said, "Let's blow this joint."

"Didn't you hear me? You aren't going anywhere soon, Brooklyn Brats!" Timmy said, annoyed.

"Yeah, and I think it's time to apologize to Sherman and Edmund and Penny and Ford." Arnold then said.

"Perhaps you didn't hear me correctly, Football Head. You're not goin' anywhere." Timmy then said, threateningly.

"Yeah, who else is going to stop us?" Mabel then said, fallowing Cindy as the toys were about to leave.

Cindy almost collides with a blank-faced Jimmy, stepping from the shadows. Cindy and the others are thrilled, however, they're clearly unaware that he's glaring at them.

"Jimmy! You're okay!" Toothless exclaimed. Jimmy makes a kung fu noise and strikes a pose, ready to fight.

"Huh?" Arnold asks, confused. WHAM! Jimmy tackles Toothless, slamming him to the floor. Jimmy leaps and kicks, spins the Toys around, and knocks their legs from under them, not giving them all a chance to talk or fight back. As Jimmy takes them down one by one, Timmy grins evilly at the chaos and mistrust he's caused right now. After a while, the Toys fall to the floor, stunned as they're in a pileup. And on top of them is Jimmy as he salutes Timmy of all people.

"Prisoners Disabled, Commander Fairy God Child!" Jimmy said.

"Jimmy, what are you doing?" Helga demanded.

"Silence, minions of Bill Cipher! You're in the custody of the CIA's Interdimensional Alliance!" Jimmy said, threateningly.

"Wait, Bill Cipher?" Libby asked.

"CIA?" Gumball then said.

"Are you kidding me?!" Cindy angrily shouted.

"Oh, boy." Gene then said. This could only mean one thing! This means that Timmy's gang reseted Jimmy to Demo Mode, making him think he's a real CIA Apprentice, again!

"Nice work, Neutron." Timmy said, grinning evilly. "Lock em' up!"

"Yes, sir!" Jimmy then said.

Soon after a while later, Timmy's gang herds the toys into the room's wire-mesh cubbies. Cindy and Cindy #2 fight back by kicking Eustace and Patrick away from them, but before they had the chance to make a break for it, Squidward grabs them from behind and throws them in a wire cubby as Jimmy shuts it.

"Jimmy...?! We're your friends!" Cindy exclaimed, feeling betrayed. Cindy reaches through the cubby wire to Jimmy's shoulder in concern. Jimmy swats her hand away in anger.

"Spare me your lies, Temptress! Your Emperor is defeated. And I'm immune to your... Bewitching good looks." Jimmy snapped, angrily. The girl looks shocked and hurt by her love's choice of words as Jimmy walks off.

Tommy lifts Dani as he prepares to take her to a cubby. Gumball intercedes as he angrily snapped, "Hey, brat face! Keep your paws off my wife!"

Tommy drops Dani in the cubby, having enough of his big mouth, Timmy turns and picks up Gumball.

"Okay, that's it!" Timmy then said. "I think this cat needs to learn himself some manners! Take him to The Box."

Tommy hoists Gumball up and toddles off into the night. Wherever the box is, or whatever it is, it must be unpleasant!

"Where're you taking me? Put me down, you moron! Bad brat! Bad brat!" Gumball then said, fearing something.

Pacifica enters the room, she's been waiting for Dipper to return to his girlfriend and his humble abode, but instead, it's taking too long. But she starts to notice what's going on, making her confused.

"Dip...?! What's going on?!" Pacifica then said, surprised.

"Pacifica...! I told you to wait in the Dream House!" Dipper exclaimed, putting an arm around her, leading her out. It's clear that he doesn't want Pacifica to find out about this.

"What're you doing to my friends?" Pacifica demands, looking over her shoulder as Patrick Star tosses Spongebob into a cubby, which Eustace slams shut. Pacifica gets the idea, as she slaps Dipper's arm away and storms off to join her friends. Her friends are being prisoners? What kind of a place is this anyway?

She slaps Dipper's arm away and turns to join the Toys in solidarity. Not wanting his heart to be shattered, Dipper tries to grab her.

"Pacifica! Wait!" Dipper begged. He can't t let this relationship end, it just started!

"Don't touch me! We're through!" Pacifica yelled as she stalks off. She won't be comfortable in the Butterfly Room knowing that her pals are suffering like this!

Dipper looks devastated, that is until she walks back to him in anger as she snapped, "That's my scarf!"

Pacifica yanks the scarf that she has given him off his neck very fast. A while later, the toy crosses her arms as she is slammed into a cubby, now a prisoner.

"Neutron, please explain our nightly accommodations." Timmy then said.

Jimmy started to explain like a drill sergeant, "Prisoners sleep in their cells! Any Prisoner caught outside their cell spends the night in The Box! Roll call at dusk and dawn! Any Prisoner misses roll call spends the night in The Box! Prisoners do not speak unless spoken to! Any Prisoner talks back spends the night..."

"...In The Box. We get it." Cindy and Cindy #2 snap, losing patience. It seems like every punishment to breaking the rules is spending a night in the Sandbox. The gang gets the idea, who does Jimmy think he is?! Jimmy whips around as if he was going to attack the girls, making both Cindys scream in terror. Timmy puts a calming hand on him.

"At ease, soldier! They're neutralized! But remember: They'll say anything to make you doubt yourself!" Timmy then said.

"Don't worry, Commander! Any doubt I had got pounded out of me at the Academy!" Jimmy said, confidently while glaring at Cindy. Unbeknownst to any of the toys was a vigilant figure watching over them, with the same microphone that was in the vending machine.

Timmy climbs on a podium of ABC blocks - jovial, relaxed at he did as he announced, "Listen up, folks! We got a way of doing things here! If you start at the bottom, pay your dues... Life here can be a dream come true! But if you break our rules, step out of line, try to check out early? Well, let's say you will end up hurting yourselves just like two certain pals of yours did earlier."

Much to the imprissoned toys' horror, Timmy takes out Sherman's glasses. He slides them across the floor to Cindy's cubby. They gasp upon recognizing the objects in question.

"Sherman! Penny!" Mabel gasped.

"You monster!" Libby angrily said to Stan.

"You maniac! You shredded them!" Gene then angrily said.

"WHY MUST THE GOOD DIE YOUNG?!" Sheen cried out.

"Sheen, we're characters from the 1990's." Libby then said, skeptically.

"Me? A monster? no. I'm just the head chief around here." Timmy said, nonchalantly.

"What did you do to them?!" Mabel angrily demanded.

Timmy goes back into his truck bed that his cronies, minus Jimmy, are waiting in. Timmy taps his cane while announcing, "Well, I suggest you all get a good night's rest! You got a full day of playtime tomorrow!"

With that, Timmy chuckles as he and his goons drive off. Jimmy, left behind, stands guard over the 'cell block, preparing to do anything should his 'enemies' try to make a break for it.

"Wanna make yourself useful? Keep an eye out. There's a vigilante that's like a one man reign of terror." Jimmy said, angrily to Cindy, then the vigilant figure left.

Cindy and her friends grasp the bars of their 'cells' in sadness. They are now prisoners of a mad plushie boy in a daycare center, Jimmy thinks he's a CIA Apprentice who now believes that his friends are his enemies, and it looks like Edmund, Sherman, Penny and Ford are gone, destroyed.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, Sherman......" Mabel quietly cried.

Why didn't the gang chose to leave the Daycare when they had the chance to before?

Unbeknownst to them, that vigilant figure was Dexter, the toy that was part of the Butterfly room.

"After many years in this society, how many good guys are left at this joint, how many stay that way?" Dexter said, narrowing his eyes at Timmy.
