The bunny twins return to their hometown Burrowville and reunite with mother B'Shara. As they hop around and hug, Plucky pops out of Buster's suitcase after putting Buster’s clothes inside himself to make room for to stowaway as he secretly sneaked into Buster's Suitcase and stayed with the Bunny family as it was the only place for him to go. To the twin sibling's surprise, Plucky became a big hit with Buster and Babs' family, including their mother, to the point where he gets a special room to stay in while the twins are forced to sleep in their mother's gym (which was originally their bedroom when they lived at home).
Upset that Plucky is getting more attention than them, Buster and Babs pretend to get sick, to which their mother took care of them but realize that she and Plucky will perform at the talent show without them. Seeing that their plan backfired, the twins fear for what would happen if their mother found out that they lied to her. Just then, their older brother Bubba came home for Spring Break and while he believed them to be sick, Buster and Babs breakdown and reveal that they pretended to get mom's attention. However, they discovered that their older brother felt the same way as he thought he was mom's favorite but as she had more kids, he had to learn to share her love for her family, upon realizing what they have done, Buster and Babs head toward the Parsnip Festival (with help from their brother since he can drive).
At the Parsnip Festival, while B'Shara and Plucky are preparing to go on stage, B'Shara asked Plucky if the twins could perform on stage with them when they arrive, eventually revealing that she knew they were faking just to get her attention, which Plucky admits that he's impressed with their acting skills.

- Max released this as an individual, 44-minutes, special TV movie altogether (the same also applying for other digital copies plus the American airing of Cartoon Network), with one intro, episode title card and credits sequence for both parts. However, both parts were originally produced as normal separate 22-minutes episodes with an intro and end credits for each of them, and were aired as such on European and Asia-Pacific versions of Cartoon Network (or Boomerang) as single 22-minutes episodes. A "To Be Continued" card and "Previosuly On" interlude were also originally made for both parts, only seen internationally on TV.

- Buster and Babs are revealed to be the nephew and niece of 1960s Looney Tunes characters Bunny and Claude.
- This special revealed that Sweetie has two moms, making her the first main character to have parents of the same gender.
- This featured one of Shirley’s full powers of physics.
- B'Shara seems to be fully aware of everything that everyone says and does.
- This features most of Buster and Babs' relatives besides their mother and older brother Babba:
- Bertha is Buster and Babs’ cousin which was revealed in Season 1, Episode 6 “Prank You Very Much”
- Bashir Bunny is also Buster and Babs’ cousin and the husband of Bertha
- Bashir Bunny was mentioned in Season 1, Episode 7 “General HOGspital”
