In "Easterland Surprise!", Peter Rabbit and Dazy the Cat are preparing Easter baskets for children when the sneaky magician Hypno the Magician kidnaps them, shrinking them down and pocketing them. Forced to flee, they hide inside a giant Easter egg, discovering the magical land of Easterland and meeting the eccentric Humpty Dumpty, who offers them shelter from Hypno’s pursuit.
Sparky Smith and a group of townspeople rush to investigate gunfire, only to find the town’s new bank robbed—just as the mayor is caught red-handed. When the sheriff arrives, the townspeople demand justice, but the mayor’s sudden confession leads to an unexpected twist that leaves everyone questioning who really stole the money.
Cicero and Timmy are playing a game of pretend, with Cicero declaring himself the new leader of the neighborhood. As he tries to assert his authority, he accidentally triggers a series of chaotic mishaps that leave Timmy bewildered and the other animals in disarray.
Peter Rabbit and Dazy stumble upon a mysterious mountain that’s not a volcano, leading them to discover a hidden rocket ship powered by uranium and piloted by a wild-eyed inventor claiming to be a scientist from Mars. As the maniacal inventor threatens to destroy Earth with a ray gun, Peter and Dazy must outwit him and find a way to survive the chaotic flight and crash landing. When they wake up, Peter insists they revisit the crater—only to find the “Martian” is actually a gold-digging man named Jim Fox, who’s been using the rocket for his own schemes.
