Out in the woods early in the morning, Anne, Sprig, Polly, and Ankh were pulling down a Meganeura-size dragonfly that was carrying a light green frog, using a rope and Sprig's tongue. "Thank you, monster lady." "My name's Anne, actually." Anne told the frog as the four pulled him out of the bug's arms before removing the binds from the dragonfly, letting it fly away. "Stay safe, sir." Ankh told the frog as he walked away.
Afterwards, Anne decided to show Sprig and Polly some photos from her phone, which included a picture of her parents, her friends, two of which suspiciously looked like the two frogs in front of her if they were human, and lastly a video of her black with white spot cat… who was currently licking itself. "And this bad girl is my kitty, Domino. You guys would like her, she's got fire." She claimed as Sprig took the phone from her so that he and Polly could get a closer look. "Aww, she's so tiny. I FEEL HUGE!" Polly yelled out while Sprig squinted his eyes, looking like he was thinking. "I will…" Sprig paused as he reached for something from his back pocket. "Set her free!" He shouted as he suddenly pulled out a hammer and tried to smash Anne's phone, only for it to be taken away just in time! "Please stop doing that." She requested when she suddenly smelt something foal. "What is that, did something crawl under the house and die?" "No, Anne. That stench. I've smelt it before." Ankh stated as he was suddenly filled with dread!
Track playing: Anything Goes from Kamen Rider OOO by Maki Ohguro (TV ver.)
(You count the Medals: 1, 2, and 3! Life goes on, Anything goes, coming up OOO!)
Now standing in front of the house, Anne pulls out three Core Medals before inserting them into the Seal and transforming into OOO Tatoba.
Now in the town, OOO was jumping from building-to-building, just enjoying herself as she rolled into the woods!
(Don't bother with unwanted or short-lived dreams! A free state…That's alright, I guess! (Starting now: the show we're waiting for! Count the medals: 1, 2 and 3!))
As she walked, OOO's suit blinked into six different forms with a different color for each. Meanwhile back at the house Sprig had placed down three green Core Medals, one at a time, next to his slingshot before jumping out of the window!
(Fate will not let go of you! In the end, you just have to go on! (An unknown development, give me energy! Count the medals: 1, 2 and 3!)
In a hidden basement, Ankh was working on a 'vending machine' with wheels as he pulled out three Cell Medals between four of his fingers. However when he inserted one, he pressed a big button in the middle, which unfortunately caused it to spark and smoke, frustrating Ankh as he kicks it!
(It's ok, tomorrow's always blank! Your value is something you decide yourself! (OOO, OOO, OOO, OOO! COME ON!))
Meanwhile at Toad tower, Uva, Mezool, and Gamel were standing next to a prison cell as Kazari leaned on the bars when a flash of lightning showed Sasha chained up inside, looking upset!
Back in civilian form but in a white and pink t-shirt with an orange flame symbol and light blue jean shorts, Anne reswiped the reader across the Seal. "Henshin!" She said as she changed forms cutaway-like four times before she appeared at the front of the tower and struck the ground with the Medajaribā, exploding the ground around the toads closest to her!
(Anything goes! That heart is what gets heated! Search for what gets overflowed!)
Now wiping out the toads, OOO changed forms rapidly, launching gorilla-themed gauntlets, swinging electrical wipes, and swinging the Medajaribā 360 just before reality splits in two for a second before fixing itself!
(Life goes on! If you get serious and fight! You'll never feel like you've lost!)
Using the Tajador Combo, OOO was now facing the four Greeeds, Grime, and Sasha in a suit of armor with the Planters by the Rider's side! The two groups then charged at each other, moments away from making contact!
Hop Luck
After walking back to the house, they stop at the backdoor leading directly to the kitchen. "Brace yourself." Sprig told Anne right before he opened the door, letting all four of them get bombarded by a wave of smell that threatened to knock them all down.
Meanwhile inside, Hop Pop was cooking something in the cauldron as he then took a taste from a wooden spoon. "What's the plan this year, Hop Pop, poison the compilation?" "The plan is to win." Hop Pop tells Sprig after bonking his head with the spoon. "Please tell me you're not entering us this year in the potluck." Ankh pleaded before Anne asked what the potluck was. "The annual village potluck. Every year we frogs gather for a great contest." Hop Pop explained as he went on to show her three portraits of previous Planter family members winning while stating that the one who brings the best tasting dish gets a cash prize and trophy. "The family with the worst-tasting dish however, spends the night in… the Shame Cage!" He finished dramatically as lightning suddenly clapped from a big dark cloud off in the distance! "Brutal." "And thanks to this geezer, I've been forced to hide in the god-damned woods in Greeed form until the next day while the rest of the family has towind up in there, for 48 years." Ankh stated rudely as Hop Pop took offense to his words.
"If you think I'm gonna let my favorite froggy family end up in a cage and my teach' live in the woods, you've got another thing coming! I'm gonna help you stay out of last place no matter what it takes." Anne declared, getting their attention and getting their hopes up. "Anne, we'd sure appreciate it!" Sprig told her as she walked over to the cauldron. "So what're you making over here, Hop Pop? Sock gumbo?" "No, silly. It's a traditional recipe from my family's cookbook. We've been using this baby since I was a pollywog." Hop Pop tells Anne proudly as he hands the book with "Ye Olde Ways" written in cursive to her to look it over, but not before Ankh chimes in, saying that the recipes were supposed to be for special occasions. "Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. So how many have you tried entering with?" "Oh I've cooked almost every last recipe for every annual potluck I've ever entered." Hop Pop answered, which only confirmed her assumption. "Yep, now I know the problem. Your recipes are bad!" Anne said bluntly as she placed the book on the table. Sprig and Polly said to each other that Anne was right. "But we Planters have always cooked these recipes. What would my great-gam-gam say?" Hop Pop asks Anne as he grabbed the book while she then looks at a portrait of Hop Pop's great grandmother, sitting in a rocking chair while knitting a quilt that said "Tradition Means Everything" before turning back to him. "She'd say "move on"." "She's right, Hop Pop." Ankh vouched for her as Hop Pop started looking conflicted. "She always was a fierce woman." "Look, if we're gonna win this thing, we need something new, something revolutionary, something no one in the swamp has ever seen before. Something like… Pizza!" Anne declared as she pulled out her phone and tapped the screen a few times before she placed the phone down onto the table as the four looked at the image of a classic pizza on it, mesmerizing Sprig and Polly. "Pizza is the ultimate dish. You haven't lived until you've shared one with your friends at the mall." "Now, now, hold on. Before we get carried away, what about this tried-and-true recipe? Swamp mold pot pie!" Hop Pop tried to convince everyone as he opened the book to a pie that looked like it was alive, not helping his case. "Hopediah, this is serious! If we're to break the circle of failure, we need to stop using these… hazardous materials." Ankh told Hop Pop brutally before grabbing the phone, just before Sprig slammed the spot with a hammer, and handing it to Anne. "Alright, Anne, you're spearheading this." "Okay! So all we gotta do is get four ingredients: dough, cheese, basil, and tomato. Nice and simple. Now who's ready to make our pizza dreams into a pizza reality?!" Anne asked as Sprig and Polly were excited while Hop Pop looked upset and Ankh looked concerned. "Hold on, Anne. If I may inform you, the tomatoes here have taken an evolutionary turn for the carnivorous." "Wait, you mean like, flytrap vegetables?" Anne asked before Ankh corrected her, saying that they were actually fruit but was spot on. "You know, the book suggests we go for prunes instead. Can't go wrong with prunes!" Hop Pop states as he opens the book again to a page that says tomatoes are dangerous and that they could be substituted with prunes, right before Ankh snatches the book away and throws it out the side door! "Be grateful I'm not burning that book!" Ankh threatened Hop Pop angrily before turning to the others, who looked a little unnerved. "Now, if you guys can get everything else, I can get the tomatoes." He told them before he went to the living room, leaving Anne, Polly, and Sprig to realize how much he didn't want to lose this potluck while Hop Pop ran outside to grab his book before something happened to it. "Okay, so let's get those ingredients." Anne said as they regained their enthusiasm and went off with Hop Pop following shortly after.
(Ankh's room)
Meanwhile, Ankh was in a room that sported shelves full of mutant vegetables and animals in jars on the left side, a stable with a slope leading to the surface, a 'vending machine' with wheels next to a workbench that had two pepperbox guns, two daggers that both resembled a turtle split in half, and a black circular box with six Medals with either a prehistoric creature or a mythical one on them, circling the word "purple" and runes that presumably spell out the same word that were in the center, on top with Ankh standing in front of it, and a bunk bed in the center. "If I'm going to get that tomato, I'm gonna need my gear." He said to himself as his body briefly turned into Cell Medals before reverting into a Greeed with red, green, black, and white feathers covering his body with a white belt that had gold on the notches and the center buckle as his head had an open-mouthed bird of prey-themed helmet sitting over a green visor with his mouth underneath the lower beak. "Striker, let's hunt." Ankh told his pet as its mandibles opened up and snarled almost playfully.
Moments later, the door Striker used almost two weeks ago opened up, letting it and its rider, who was now wearing holsters around his belt, jump out, running into the woods at high speeds!
In town, Anne, Sprig, Polly, and Hop Pop were in a bakery with a blue-skinned, purple-striped frog wearing a stained apron and a hat as he was working. "If you want the dough, Ankh has to teach my daughter how to make those Medal-things." He told them as he then pointed to his daughter, a light blue frog with eye-leveled light pink hair done up with a bun uncovering her left eye, which had a snake's pupil as she turned to the group while holding a tiny stack in one and a voodoo doll that looked like Sprig in the other. "Hi, Sprig." She said as she swiftly plunged the stack between the doll's stomach and chest areas. "Ain't she adorable?" He asked, ignoring what his daughter did to the doll as Anne agreed to the deal. "You know, if we used a traditional recipe, we wouldn't have to sell Ankh part-time." "Did you not hear what he told you? Besides, I'm sure he'd have said yes to the offer as well." Anne told Hop Pop as she then focused back on the chef. "I'll make sure Ankh knows about the deal. Now cough up the dough." "Yay!" He cheered in a mostly monotone voice as he then reached for a ball of dough from underneath the table and tossed it into Anne's waiting hand. "Pleasure doing business with ya." She said to him before the group left with the first ingredient.
Meanwhile with Ankh, after a while riding, he and Striker finally made it to where he knew a tomato flytrap would be. Or would, 've been", if he could see it in a large clearing filled with what is presumed to be premature and unripe tomatoes. "How can something that big just disappear?" Ankh asked himself as he dismounted before snapping his fingers and pointing behind themselves, signaling Striker to move a safe distance. Afterwards, Ankh pulled out his daggers from his holsters as he proceeded with caution. It wasn't long however when he felt something briefly move below him, getting him to sprout his wings and fly upwards. Unfortunately as he did, the very three-headed plant he searched bursted its way out of the earth and shot out two vines that wrapped around the waist and neck of a startled Ankh! "OH DEAR GOD!" He screamed as he fumbled with his daggers before grabbing them by the blades before they fell too far! He then proceeded to use what blade was currently available to him and sliced the vines off him! "Welcome to the last day of your life, motherfucker!" Ankh told the plant as he quickly moved his hands back to the hilts after a light toss before diving like a falcon with a war cry!
Several minutes later in Wartwood, Anne, Sprig, and Hop Pop were running for their lives from a huge bull-like caterpillar in the dairy farm of a dull purple-colored frog with one bad eye and a cane while Polly was on Hop Pop's head. "What are we here for again?!" "Cheese!" Anne shouted to Sprig as Hop Pop tried to offer another traditional dish choice, particularly one that didn't require cheese. "I WILL FEED THAT BOOK TO THE COWAPILIERS!" Anne threatens before she spots the bull's pin and gets an idea when she spots a plant with big red leaves near it. So when she bolted to the pin, she transformed into OOO, now equipped with a yellow helmet with blue eyes and 'hair' resembling the sun, eel whips, and a gunmetal grey lower half with elephant heads engraved on each leg! As she made it, OOO tore off a leaf while moving to the open gate. "Hey, Brutus, over here! Toro! Toro!" she called out to the bull, getting his attention as he charged at OOO! Fortunately, she knew exactly what she was doing as her head suddenly flashed a solar-like light, blinding Brutus as she then forced him to keep moving forward by wrapping her whips around his neck before finally, when he got close enough, OOO dropped onto her back and pushed Brutus into the pin with her legs! After removing the Seal, Anne then closed the gate, trapping Brutus inside just as he rushed to the entrance. Shortly after, the owner of the farm came up to her with a wheel of cheese. "Here ya go, a hunk of cheese! Made fresh from the milk of those ca-" "Please tell me those aren't calfs!"
Back with Ankh, he was locked in the vines of the tomato flytrap again as its right head was biting down on his waist! He tried to claw his way to the daggers he dropped earlier, but to no avail when Striker suddenly leaped from behind it and pounced on the back of the right head and sunk a pair of sickle claws into the back of it while clawing at the base of where the neck and head connected, forcing the plant to release Ankh just before the head fell off with Striker still on it! As the rest of the plant screamed in agony, Ankh got back up and pulled out the pepperboxes as the chamber rotated to a loaded bullet. Unfortunately the plant, for some unknown reason, pulled out five pepperboxes of its own!
Back with the group, a squad of 5 OOOs, using Gatakiriba, was fighting a swarm of 10 aphids the size of African wild dogs that were after the same thing! "Uh, Sprig. Is this a temporary thing?" "Oh, definitely. But when Anne's done, she'll really tire her out." Sprig told Hop Pop as they and Polly stood on the sidelines, getting a sigh of relief from the older frog when the OOOs suddenly began to form a grid of lightning to obliterate the aphids while preserving the plants with basil on them! After a minute, the current began to die down as the OOOs began to collapse from exhaustion before the Planters ran to check up on them. "Anne, are you alright? And more importantly, are the clones permanent?!" "Don't worry, I can call 'em back. Alright, girls, let's get that basil!" OOO shouted out at the end, getting a groan from every last one before they went to work. Though during the harvest, one of the OOOs heard a faint series of banging sounds from the west before. "What is it?" "I thought I heard gunfire from the west." The OOO told an approaching duplicate holding a handful of basil as she then told her to tell the original before she calls them back.
(Planter Farm)
As the sky started turning orange, everyone had met back up with the ingredients for a pizza, which were all on the table. "Dough from Mr. Flour's bakery, Cheese from Ms. Croaker's dairy farm, and basil and tomatoes from the wild, the latter of which has a few bullets in it." "I regret nothing!" Ankh declared as he raised a Pepperbox into the air, causing the Planters to duck down just in case while Anne started picking out the bullets she could. "Watch where you swing that thing!" Hop Pop told Ankh before turning to, asking if they could get started. "Finally on board, eh Hop Pop?" "No. I just want this over with so we can all get back to tradition!" He stated, sounding fed up with this potluck. "Alright. Alright, sheesh! First we flatten the dough to hold the ingredients, then we turn some of the tomatoes into a paste to spread on before shredding the cheese, and then we place the basil and the sliced tomatoes evenly before finally cooking it in the oven for fifteen minutes, give-or-take." Anne explained as Sprig and Polly looked confused while Ankh understood what she said. "Alright, Hop Pop, you're heating up the oven, Sprig, we need you to crush some tomatoes while Anne and I make the pizza." "What about me?" Polly asked as everyone looked at her, most of them knowing the main reason. "Polly, you remember the last time any of us trusted you with fire?" Hop Pop asked rhetorically as she suddenly remembered the incident that involved a bug that could shoot fire, a whole lot of recoil, and a hospital. "Okay, I see your point. But I'd like to say that it was an accident."
(Wartwood, 30 minutes later)
In town, everyone in town was gathering at a long table with a white tarp over it under a sign that said what was going on, plain and simple as four other families were putting their finishing touches on their dishes while the Planters were waiting for the contest to officially begin. "You smell that Ankh?" "Yeah, a real fighting chance to actually win." Ankh answers Anne as Polly and Sprig agree with a "here-here". Just then everyone heard a horn blowing as they turned to see mayor Toadstool. "All right! Let the annual potluck begin! Let's get to tastin' those dishes." He said as he then went on to taste everyone's dish one-by-one, liking all of them as he finally made it to the Planters. "And last, but not least, oh, the Plantars. What filth have you cooked up this ti- hmm? What the heck is this?" "It's something new, something not traditional." Ankh explained vaguely as he removed a pre-cut piece of the pizza and handed it to the mayor, who gave it a suspicious look before taking a bite out of it. "Hm. Hm!" He hummed before scarfing down the rest of the slice! "Amazin'. This is, without a shadow of a doubt, the best dish the Planter have ever made!" Toadstool declared with pure delight as the group looked with joy. "Does this mean we win?" "Absolutely, creature! This is miles better than anything Hopediah had made!" He told Anne as he placed a blue ribbon on the rest of the pizza that said "best dish". "Now, who do I give this ribbon to?" He asked himself as he pulled out a grey ribbon that just says "good grief" before walking back to the other contestants, leaving Ankh, Anne, Polly, and Sprig feeling victorious while Hop Pop looked shocked before looking depressed while sighing. "We did it, we won first place! TAKE THAT, EVERYONE WHO DOUBTED US!" Ankh yelled out as he pulled out a list of people's names. "Alphabetically." "Is my name on that list?" Hop Pop asked depressingly as the group looked to him. "Come again?" Sprig asked out of concern as Hop Pop cleared his throat. "I mean, I'm sorry I kept dismissin' your pizza idea, Anne. I was just tryin' to keep our traditions alive, but I guess I was so caught up in goin' by tradition that I didn't realize it was a problem." He said, causing Ankh and Anne to feel bad about how they treated him as the former scratched the back of his head while the latter winced. "Hop Pop, we're sorry too. All this time, I thought you were just being a turd, who wanted to sabotage the family." "Nope, just wanted to teach the kids that tradition can be a beautiful thing. But I guess you can't argue with progress. I mean for Frog's sake, we used a brand new dish and won!" Hop Pop stated before Anne got an idea that could work out for both of them. "Hey, Hop Pop. How about we make a dish in the future that's both old and new, just for fun?" She asked Hop Pop, making him feel a little better.
