KidsWBYungsta's Animation Multiverse: The Series – Season 1, Episode 2: Slumber Party Panic
It was just a quiet Friday afternoon around the Animation Multiverse as the wind was blowing through the mid-April air. At a nearby upper-middle-class house in the neighborhood, Bugs Bunny was busy relaxing in the leisure room of his home, watching a basketball game on the flat-screen television while eating a bowl of popcorn. Before he could give a comment about the latest play that had occurred in the game, he heard a knock on the door, so he got up from the couch and decided to open it.
"Oh, hey, Daffy," Bugs said with a smile. "What's up, doc?"
"Bugsy, old pal, I think I found a little something-something that could liven up our Friday night," Daffy said with a smile as he walked into Bugs' house.
"You mean to tell me that you are entering another hot dog eating contest with the hopes of being called 'Mr. Weiner'?" Bugs said while arching an eyebrow. "Daffy, I thought you were forbidden from entering another contest like that after you filled yourself with helium to eat more hot dogs than you can hold."
Daffy just stared at Bugs in confusion for a moment, then he balled up a random piece of paper — supposedly the hot dog contest poster — and threw it to the side as he opened up another piece of paper, walking up to Bugs as he said, "No, not that, Bugs! I'm talking about this bad boy right here!"
As Daffy gave Bugs the paper, Bugs noticed that it was an invitation to the Winx Club's slumber party at Alfea College tonight, saying, "Winx Club's Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend — A Girls Only Event Held at Alfea College. There will be tons of food, tons of games and a whole lot of slumber party fun to go around. Meet us at Alfea College, tonight at 7:00 p.m. sharp — be there or be square!"
As Bugs looked up from the paper and looked at Daffy, he could only raise an eyebrow in confusion as he said, "Eh, Daffy… you do realize that it's a girls' only slumber party, right?"
"Oh, don't worry, Bugs, I know that!" Daffy said in a reassuring tone.
"So, why did you show me this poster?" Bugs said. "It's not like they are going to let us into their party and whatnot…"
"Ah-ha, this is where the fun comes in!" Daffy said as he wrapped his arm around Bugs. "You and I are going to start the biggest prank war those girls have ever seen in their animated lives! Once the girls get settled in, we are going to liven things up with a series of pranks in the Looney-Tuniest way we know how! This is the kind of prank war that will last all night long, up until the early morning! What do you say, Bugs? Are you in or what?"
Bugs stared at the duck for a moment, then he just sighed as he said, "Daffy, look, what makes you think that starting a prank war with the girls would be a good idea? That's the kind of thing we would've done in our 'screwball' years—then again, I shouldn't be surprised that you would recommend something like this—and it would make a lot of sense if you had asked the Warners about this. Why do you think this would be a good look on our part?"
"Well, Bugs, don't you remember when Mr. Whiskers started a prank war against Brandy Harrington when she had her own slumber party a few years ago?" Daffy said while smirking at the rabbit. "You know how that ended, don't ya?"
"Yeah, Brandy and her friends almost got eaten by a jaguar until Mr. Whiskers and Ed stepped in to save the day by dressing up as a female jaguar," Bugs explained with a light shrug of his shoulders.
"Okay, so it didn't exactly end up as well as they had intended, but you could tell they still had fun with that whole prank war!" Daffy said. "Anyway, if we have this prank war during the girls' slumber party, it would make their Spring Break shindig even better in the long run!"
"I don't know, Daffy…" Bugs said as he rolled his eyes. "I mean, don't you think it would be ridiculous if those girls saw their own Cartoon Tooniversity professors playing pranks on their special night of fun, flirting and makeovers?"
"Come on, Bugs, I'm sure they wouldn't mind," Daffy said in a reassuring tone. "Besides, we're cartoon characters; I'm positive they understand that we're supposed to be wacky and zany. After all, that's why us Looney Tunes characters are so popular!"
"Daffy, I understand that the wacky and zany antics are part of our cartoon lineage, but I don't think the girls would be open to something like this," Bugs explained as he looked out of one of the windows in his house. "Besides, some of the girls know a thing or two about magical abilities, so who knows how things will end up for us if we even think about pulling a single prank on them during their girls' only slumber party…"
"Ah, come on, Bugsy, just think!" Daffy said with a smile on his face. "I know you have grown and evolved to become the resident agent of righteous reprisal, but deep down in your heart, you still have the heart of that screwball you started out as. I mean, think about it, Bugs, even your animated predecessor, Happy Rabbit, knew a thing or two about playing the screwball; he even got the upper hand over Porky Pig all the way back in 1938! Besides, if it wasn't for him, you probably wouldn't be here; in fact, you probably wouldn't have become the biggest star of all the Looney Tunes characters if it wasn't for Happy Rabbit… so, what do you say now, Bugs?"
As Bugs continued to process what Daffy was explaining to him and thought about how his prototype and Daffy won the hearts of millions by using their screwiness to steal the show, he started to smile a bit as he turned to Daffy and said, "Well, Daffy, I guess all I have to say is…"
Bugs proceeded to put on a war general's helmet as he said in a confident tone, "…of course, you realize this means war!"

While Bugs and Daffy made preparations for their own night of fun through the upcoming prank war, evening times had fallen over the Animation Multiverse and the Winx Club girls were at Alfea College putting the final touches to their room for their upcoming "Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend", as named by Stella, the bubbly blonde of the group. Musa and Flora were hanging up the banner for the slumber party outside of the Winx's dorm room while Tecna finished typing out the list of activities, printing out said list and proceeded to show it to her friends as she explained, "Ladies, here are the activities set for our special Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend, all printed out in crystal-clear condition."
As Bloom, Stella, Layla, Diaspro and Roxy gathered around Tecna to read the list she printed out, they all looked on in amazement as Stella said, "Oh my gosh, Tecna, these activities sound so cool! I can't wait to see the looks on the other girls' faces when they see what we have in store for our super-special Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend!"
While Stella made this declaration, however, her enthusiasm caused Musa and Flora to get distracted from hanging up the slumber party banner, causing Musa to slip from Flora's shoulders and crash onto her. As they both regained consciousness, Musa rubbed her head and moaned for a bit as she said, "I guess Stella is really excited about this Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend, huh, Flo?"
Flora could only moan lightly as she sighed and said, "That's an understatement, Musa…"
As Musa and Flora walked into the room to catch up with the other girls, Stella walked around the girls' dorm room, looking at the various decorations and accommodations in amazement, sighing happily as she said, "Oh, yeah… this is definitely going to be the greatest Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend ever!"
"Yo, Stella, don't take this the wrong way or anything, but whoever heard of a 'Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend' anyway? Is that even a real thing?" Musa said while raising an eyebrow. "I mean, I understand the idea of having a slumber party during one day of Spring Break, but having a weekend of a slumber party during Spring Break? How does that make any sense?"
"Well, listen, I know the concept sounds very far-fetched, but just stay with me here, Musa," Stella said. "We don't have any classes for two weeks in honor of Spring Break and most students would either go out of town or have a party for 1-2 days during that time. Well, what if, instead of having a slumber party on one night during Spring Break, we have an entire girls' only slumber party weekend? That way, the fun will never have to end: three nights and two days of unadulterated slumber party fun!"
The other Winx Club girls just stared at each other in confusion until Stella said in a reassuring tone, "Look, ladies, I understand the concept of a long slumber party weekend might be foreign to you all, but come on, this will be fun!"
The other girls still felt confused about the situation, but Bloom decided to play it cool and said, "Alright, Stella, if this is something you really want to do, I guess we'll roll with it. Just a quick question, though: who did you invite to this slumber party weekend-long event anyway?"
Stella moved to her closet to find her pajamas as she said to Bloom, "Oh, some of our female classmates from the Cartoon Tooniversity; y'know, the Sailor Guardians, Brandy Harrington, Kim Possible, Jenny Wakeman, Frankie Stein, Draculaura, the Bratzillaz, Milky Way, Ami and Yumi… a couple of girls, actually. I even asked Coach Lola if she wanted to come over, but she said she had some other plans."
"What exactly did Lola have planned for tonight?" Layla said while arching an eyebrow and sporting a smirk. "Isn't Friday usually the time where she plans a night of romance with her boy toy, Professor Bugs Bunny?"
"Well, she did mention that she was going to ask Bugs out tonight, but she said that he was going to be stuck with Daffy for the evening," Stella explained as she and the other girls started to switch into their pajamas. "I honestly don't know what Daffy is planning to do with Bugs unless he wants to go back on that Besties game show again… and we all know what happened the last time they did that."
While the girls giggled among themselves following Stella's response, unbeknownst to them, Bugs and Daffy were listening to their conversation from the Winx's balcony. Daffy could only look on in annoyance when they mentioned his and Bugs' appearance on Besties as he said, "What? They're not going to let me live down my appearance on Besties? It was just one question about your catchphrase and now I must hear about it from everyone I've ever met, even our own students?! Bugs, can you believe this?"
However, Daffy was surprised to hear Bugs snicker in response as he said, "Oh, you think this stuff is still funny after all this time?"
Bugs cleared his throat amid his snickering as he said, "Oh, come on, Daffy, think about it: yeah, I was sour about it when we lost the game, but after some time, it was pretty funny to see how you let your greed overpower your better judgement, causing you to blow the entire game."
As Bugs proceeded to laugh harder, Daffy just groaned in response as he said, "Thanks for the vote of confidence, brother. Can we just get on with this already?"
As Bugs wiped a tear from his eye from all the laughter, he cleared his throat and said, "Okay, okay, sorry, doc; didn't know that Besties thing was still a sore spot with you … so, what exactly do you have in store?"
Daffy responded by pulling out a briefcase of pranks, gags and practical jokes, saying while sporting a devious smirk, "Aha, we finally get to the meat of this episode, Bugsy ol' pal! You see, the Winx Club girls think they are going to have the time of their lives with this huge Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend thing—I still don't what the difference is between that and a regular slumber party since they're both the same thing—but we are going to liven it up with our signature Looney Tunes-style of all-around trickery, all thanks to these babies right here!"
As Bugs knelt next to Daffy and looked inside Daffy's briefcase, he noticed that the collection of gags inside were very basic: Acme-brand pies, fake spiders, whipped cream dispensers — okay, that one could be useful for a later prank — the works. Bugs turned to Daffy and said, "Daffy, are you being serious right now?"
"What? These are some of the best pranks we used in our time!" Daffy said in a defensive tone, then he pulled out one of the fake spiders and said with a smile, "Besides, how can one resist pranking somebody by holding up a fake spider to their face?"
While Daffy held said spider up to Bugs' face, the rabbit could just turn to the audience and said in a discreet tone, "I guess I need to update Daffy on the latest in cartoon trickery…"
Bugs then turned back to Daffy and said, "Listen, Daff, I understand these gags would be playful enough to a younger crowd, but you gotta understand, doc: we could do a whole lot better than this! We gotta show these girls that us Looney Tunes know about tricks and pranks; after all, it's one of the main reasons why most of us are the professors at the Warner Bros. Cartoon Tooniversity."
"Give me another main reason," Daffy said while raising an eyebrow.
Bugs just rolled his eyes in response as he said, "Eh, what more can I say, Daffy? It's Warner Brothers. Anyway, let's get back to the lecture at hand: you say you wanted to liven things up during the girls' slumber party weekend, right?"
Daffy nodded his head in agreement as Bugs sported a smirk and said, "Well, I say let's give these girls a night of pranks and non-stop wackiness that they'll never forget."
After a short silence, Bugs and Daffy were distracted by Bloom saying from inside, "Hey, did you guys hear something?"
"It sounded like Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck were outside on our balcony," Flora said, causing Bugs and Daffy to look on in complete surprise.
"Say what? Flora, what makes you say that?" Roxy said.
"Hey, I recognize that Bronx-Brooklyn accent and overexaggerated lisp when I hear them… okay, maybe that was a bit too straightforward," Flora explained.
"Actually, the overexaggerated lisp part was a very accurate description, Flora," Bugs whispered while snickering to himself, causing more annoyance and grief on Daffy's part.
"You know what, Bugs? Maybe I should just go ahead and drop this whole prank war thing, and give you a perfect punch right square in the—" Daffy began to say until he and Bugs heard Princess Diaspro's voice.
"Listen, girls, if it helps anything, I'll go outside and see where all the commotion is coming from," Princess Diaspro said from inside as she began to walk out to the Winx's balcony.
Before Princess Diaspro could catch Bugs and Daffy in the open, the two Looney Tunes quickly snuck away and hid from Diaspro's sight as she walked out and looked around to see if there was any sight of Bugs or Daffy. Princess Diaspro rubbed her head for a bit as she said, "That's strange. Flora said she heard their voices, but I don't see them anywhere …"
"Hey, Princess Diaspro!" A voice called from below.
Princess Diaspro looked down below and saw that some of the girls had arrived for the Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend. Star Butterfly was the source of the voice who called for her, then she said, "Hey, we may be a couple minutes early, but is this where the party is?"
Princess Diaspro could only smile with glee as she said, "Why, yes, yes, it is! Hey, girls, our party guests have arrived! You ready to get this party jumpin'?"
Once Princess Diaspro went back inside to alert the Winx of the girls who were arriving, Bugs and Daffy poked their heads out to see if the coast was clear, then they popped out of the bush they were hiding in, dusting themselves off as Bugs looked at Daffy and said, "Daffy, you gotta learn a thing or two about keeping your cool in these intense times."
"Oh, I'm sorry, Bugs, I didn't know that defending myself from one of your sly, witty insults directed at me was such a heinous crime all of a sudden!" Daffy said in an annoyed tone. "Sheesh! Be grateful that I found a nice hiding spot to keep us away from Diaspro's sight…"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah… just come here for a moment," Bugs said as he and Daffy walked over to the edge of the balcony and looked down to see the party guests arriving for the Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend, hosted at Alfea College. "Look at that, Daffy, I guess the girls wanted to go all out for their weekend-long slumber party event…"
"I see, it looks like they've invited Brandy Harrington and Kim Possible to this thing," Daffy said. "Why is it that we've been seeing them hang around each other as of late?"
Bugs just shrugged his shoulders in response as he and Daffy continued to survey the guests arriving for the party, then he pointed out the Sailor Guardians and Star Butterfly as he said to Daffy, "Check it out, Daff, the Sailor Guardians and Star Butterfly were all invited for this thing as well; hey, even the Bratzillaz got an invite!"
As Bugs explained this, a devious smile started to appear on Daffy's face as he started to laugh evilly and said, "Well, well, well, this is perfect… I guess it's time to test these girls on their karmic trickster wit through the various pranks we are going to pull on them…"
"Alright, Daffy, but we're not using those junior-level practical jokes you brought with us," Bugs said as he left the balcony and walked into Alfea College.
Daffy proceeded to throw the briefcase right into the sky as he followed along with Bugs. Once he caught up with the rabbit, he said in a slightly-annoyed tone, "Alright, Bugs, so if we're not going to use the pranks I brought with us, what do you suggest?"
"I think we're going to start off with the basic pranks first, then we're going to increase the prank intensity little by little as the night goes on," Bugs explained. "Besides, I have a huge list of pranks and practical jokes we could pull right up my sleeve."
"Oh-ho-ho, I like the way you think, Bugs!" Daffy said with a genuine smile. "I can tell that whatever you have in store is going to be good! Whoo-hoo-hoo!"
Inside the Winx Club's dorm room, the girls were all in their pajamas, ready to get this long weekend of the ages started off right. Stella stood in front of the girls and said, "Alright, ladies, it's so great to have you all here with us tonight. You see, as you may know, we have two weeks of Spring Break this year, allowing us to have two full weeks—14 straight days—of non-stop fun, rest and relaxation! So, instead of just having a girls' only slumber party for one night, why not have a girls' only slumber party for an entire weekend? We are going to have so much fun this weekend because we are going to pull out all the stops for this one! This slumber party weekend will have all the elements for a great one: makeovers, pillow fights, party games, truth or dare, movies—hey, we might even get an opportunity to call in some boys to liven things up, huh?"
The girls all looked on in complete amazement over how much fun they were going to have—well, almost all of them, as Ami Mizuno was concerned about whether or not they would have enough time to study for the upcoming exam in one of the classes when they get back to school. Ami M. shyly raised her hand and said, "Uh… excuse me, Stella, but are we going to fit in some time to study for the big exam in Professor Bunny's Basic Wild Takes class?"
Stella proceeded to walk up to Ami M. and said in a reassuring tone, "Ami, will you relax? This is only the first of our two-week Spring Break! Besides, we'll find some time to study for that Basic Wild Takes exam in the following week. For now, we are focused on three main things: fun, rest and relaxation, all in the name of the best girls' only weekend!"
"So, Stel, what exactly is the first thing we are going to do tonight?" Makoto said as she picked up her pillow, sporting a playful smirk on her face as she said, "Are we going to get into the pillow fight?"
Stella could only giggle nervously as she said, "Uh, heh-heh-heh, the pillow fight will be coming later, Makoto. First thing we're going to start off with is… makeovers! Hey, Brandy, do you have that new Glamilicious makeup kit you got for Christmas?"
"Oh, totally, you are going to love this, Stella!" Brandy said as she pulled out the Glamilicious makeup kit and showed it to the other girls. "This stuff will definitely bring out the true beauty that is hidden from within. Who wants to go first?"
"Oh, let me try, Brandy, I could go for a super-cool makeover right now!" Usagi said as she rushed up to the Winx's rotating chair, waiting for her makeover of the evening.
While Brandy and Stella decided to give Usagi the makeover of her dreams, Musa could only giggle as she turned to Rei and said, "You know, Rei, I thought you would've been the first one to jump at the opportunity of getting a makeover through that Glamilicious kit."
Rei could only roll her eyes in response as she said, "Oh, please, Musa, I don't need any makeup kit to make me look more beautiful. I'm already the most-beautiful girl to ever grace the hallowed grounds of the Warner Bros. Cartoon Tooniversity."
Musa just rolled her eyes in response to Rei's comment, but suddenly, the phone started to ring, causing the room to go silent for a minute until Minako spoke up and said, "Hey, girls, were you expecting a phone call right now?"
"No, not really," Stella said as she was putting blush on Usagi's face.
"That's strange," Flora said. "Who would be calling into our slumber party at this time?"
Bloom walked over to the phone and said in a reassuring tone, "Who knows? It's probably Virgil asking us about the homework Professor Bunny had assigned us in English class. Hello?"
When Bloom answered the phone, another voice on the line said, "Yes, hello, this is Count Leopold von Liechtenstein, and I would like to say I got your drawings in the mail…"
Bloom listened on in disbelief, but she decided to humor whoever was calling and said, "Uh, okay, who is this again?"
"Well, thank you for asking, this is Count Leopold von Liechtenstein, world-renowned artiste and artistry extraordinaire," the voice said again. "I have received your drawings in the mail and I must say, you have a keen eye for detail and you have an amazing sense of creativity…"
Bloom was amazed by Count Leopold's assessment of her artistry as she smiled with glee and said with a beaming smile, "Really, do you mean it?"
However, as Bloom said what she said, the voice on the other line started to laugh for a bit until he cleared his throat and said, "Oh, yes, yes indeed, your work is simply exemplary, superb, marvelous, stupendous, serendipitous, magical, amazing, out of this world… and it's good, too!"
Bloom's eyes sparkled with unadulterated amazement and joy, then she heard the snickering and laughing from the other line as she heard another voice say, "Oh, brother, I can't believe she's really falling for this!"
"Oh, you got that right, brother," the first voice said to the second voice. "I told you Count Leopold von Liechtenstein was going to be a killer gag! Whoo-hoo-hoo!"
Soon, as the situation dawned on her, Bloom finally realized that she was being tricked as she raised an eyebrow and said, "Wait a minute… Daffy Duck, is that you on the line?"
She would receive her answer by Daffy's head popping out of the telephone, giving a playful smirk as he said, "Well, who else could it be, sister? I mean, you were expecting, maybe, Courage the Cowardly Dog? Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo-hoo!"
Daffy proceeded to plant a big kiss on Bloom as he 'Whoo-hoo'd' back into the telephone, much to the surprise of Bloom and the other girls in the Winx Club's dorm room. As Bloom hung up the phone and turned back to the girls, Rei asked, "Uh… Bloom, I know it's obvious based on the voice, but did Daffy Duck just pop through your phone and brag about pulling a practical joke on you?"
Bloom blushed for a bit in embarrassment as she cleared her throat and said, "Yeah, I guess so…"
"So, that's what Daffy had planned for his Friday night: a night of practical jokes and full-blown pranks during our special Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend …" Stella said while rubbing her chin. "Hmm… you know what? I think we should go ahead and fight fire with fire on this one!"
Before Stella could put her first set of pranks into fruition, she was stopped by Juniper, who grabbed her wrist and said, "Whoa, hold up for a minute, Stella! I understand you want to get back at Daffy for that prank he just pulled on Bloom, but it was just a harmless phone call prank."
Stella could only recoil in response, raising an eyebrow as she said, "What? June, I don't think you realize how serious this could be. One minute, they are pulling a prank phone call on Bloom, then they are going to mess with our makeup, send us a pizza that would inevitably be eaten by the Tasmanian Devil, switch out our drinks with some kind of shrinking potion—"
However, Stella stopped at the last response as she noticed the looks of confusion from most of the girls in the room, which caused her to clear her throat and give an embarrassed chuckle as she said, "Oh, uh… heh-heh… sorry, girls, I guess I started going off the rails right there, huh?"
Bloom then walked up to Stella and said with a smile, "Hey, don't worry, Stella, it always happens to the best of us."
Meanwhile, at Bugs' house, Bugs and Daffy were busy laughing at how easily the girls fell for their practical joke phone call. After laughing for a good minute, Bugs turned to Daffy and said, "Hey, Daffy, I might have been a bit apprehensive about taking part in this prank war, but things are starting to look good so far."
"See, Bugs? I knew you would have some fun taking part in this thing!" Daffy said while laughing. "Besides, it would be a good way for us to actually get back into our original screwball ways. Now, it's time to come up with another great prank on those girls, but this time… I think you should come up with one."
"Me?" Bugs said, pointing to himself. "Well, gosh, Daffy, I don't know… I mean, what would be such an impressive prank that would knock those girls out of their socks?"
"Well, Bugs, I don't think you should bring out one of your heavy-hitters just yet," Daffy said, grabbing Bugs by his arms. "Just improvise a good one right on the spot…"
Bugs thought about it for a moment, then he finally got an idea for a rather clever prank as he said, "Eh, Daffy, I think I got a real great one, doc!"
After the practical joke involving a fake phone call from Count Leopold von Lichtenstein, the girls got right back into their Slumber Party Weekend by getting into a game of Truth or Dare. After Stella laid down the basic ground rules for this game—as if everyone didn't already know how to play Truth or Dare by now—the girls proceeded to get into the game. Unfortunately, the first contestant Stella chose for this game was Yaten, much to the pleasure of the other Sailor Guardians and her fellow Sailor Starlights.
Yaten could only turn to Seiya and Taiki, almost as if she was asking for help to get out of the line of fire. However, Seiya and Taiki could only giggle in response as Seiya said, "Sorry, Yaten, but you know how this game goes."
"Either you take the heat or you risk being humiliated in front of the other girls," Taiki said, sporting a devious smile.
Yaten is left with the risk of total humiliation as Stella said to her, "Okay, Yaten: Truth or Dare?"
After a few seconds of fear and distress, Yaten finally turned back to her cool and collected self as she sported a devious smirk and said, "Y'know what? I choose Truth."
The girls were amazed by Yaten's choice, sharing mixed reactions of surprise, amazement and overall interest. Stella smirked playfully as she said, "Wow, you're going with Truth, huh? I was sure you were going to say Dare. Alright, well, at least you have the opportunity to answer a really, really embarrassing question."
"Oh, please, Stella, I could handle whatever question you throw at me," Yaten said while smiling. "Go on, Stella, gimme your best shot."
"Alright, then… here's my question…" Stella said, leaning in very close to Yaten, much to her discomfort. "You claim to be the distant one of the Sailor Starlights, but I've been hearing rumors that you were falling in love with one of the guys at the Tooniversity…"
Yaten's cool demeanor was slowly but surely going away as she said, "Wait, what? How is that even possible? Where and how did you even get the word about this, Stella?"
"Ah-ah-ah, Yaten, I'm the one asking the questions in this game," Stella said, still sporting her playful, yet devious smirk. "So, riddle me this, Yaten: who is this boy toy of your dreams and why does he hold such a special place in your heart?"
Yaten surveyed the atmosphere around her, taking note of the reactions of the other girls present in the slumber party: Usagi and Minako were both sighing lovingly as they thought about who Yaten's special guy could be; Rei, Musa and Brandy were snickering among themselves because of how Yaten managed to keep this secret for so long without anybody but Stella knowing anything about it; Ami M. and Flora both sympathized with Yaten's plight because they were stuck in that same situation before; and Seiya and Taiki both looked as if they were five seconds away from laughing real hard.
After taking note of the atmosphere, Yaten turned back to Stella, who was still smiling deviously as she said in a playful, sing-song voice, "Oh, Yaten, I'm still waiting for your response…"
"Uh… sorry about this, Stella, but can I just make a rain check and answer that question later?" Yaten said, sporting a nervous smile on her face while laughing nervously.
"Sorry, Yaten, you know the rules," Rei said while looking at Yaten with a playful smirk. "If you choose 'Truth', you have to answer what is thrown at you. Besides, weren't you the one who claimed that you could handle any question we throw at you, no matter how embarrassing it is?"
Yaten could only palm her face in response as she muttered, "Great, leave it to Rei to use my own words against me."
Yaten then turned to her fellow Starlights, giving them a face that was screaming "Help me out of this mess!". However, Seiya and Taiki were just giggling to themselves upon seeing Yaten in a compromising position, leaving the cynical Starlight even more annoyed than before.
"Uh, Yaten, I'm still waiting…" Stella said.
After a few moments of stalling for an answer, Yaten just groaned as she finally said, "Alright, alright! Fine, you girls wanna know who my secret crush is? My secret crush is—"
However, just as Yaten began to reveal her answer, a knock on the door was heard, eliciting many groans from most of the girls and sighs of relief from Yaten, Ami M. and Flora. Yaten then turned to look at Seiya and Taiki, both of whom gave annoyed looks at their fellow Starlight as Taiki said, "You know what, Yaten? You better be grateful you got off lucky for this one…"
"Hey, at least that knock on the door saved me from a lifetime's worth of constant humiliation from the other girls at the Tooniversity," Yaten said, sticking her tongue out playfully at Seiya and Taiki.
"Aw, man… just as we were about to find out the identity of Yaten's secret crush…" Stella muttered as she walked up to the door of the dorm room. "Who would be lurking around Alfea at a time like this?"
Once she opened the door, she noticed a pizza delivery man standing at the doorway, who looked suspiciously similar to a certain rabbit she knew. Stella could only raise an eyebrow in confusion as she asked, "Uhhh… can I help you?"
"Eh, did anybody order a super-deluxe pepperoni pizza with extra sausage and bacon bits?" The pizza delivery man said in a subtle Brooklyn accent.
"Um, I'm sorry, sir, but I don't remember any of us ordering a pizza here," Flora sweetly said as she walked up to where Stella and the pizza man were. "I think you might have the wrong address."
"Oh, really? Well, that's too bad because I was certain that someone ordered a pizza for this girls only slumber party," The pizza delivery man said, then he began to walk away, saying, "Oh, well, sorry to disturb you, ladies …"
Suddenly, the pizza delivery man was stopped in his tracks by Usagi, who poked her head through the door and said, "Wait! I was the one who made the call! Sorry, girls, I didn't say anything at first because I didn't want to feel indelicate…"
"You're the one who loves eating so much, and now you worry about feeling indelicate?" Rei said with a smirk while raising an eyebrow.
Usagi only glared at Rei in response as Bloom walked up to Stella and Flora, holding her wallet as she said, "Listen, girls, how about we go ahead and pay for the pizza? I mean, I'm sure the other girls wouldn't mind having a slice…"
"Oh, alright," Stella said with a sigh as she turned to the pizza delivery man. "How much is this pizza going to cost?"
"Oh… about $19.95," The pizza delivery man said while shrugging his shoulders.
"Alright then, here's $19.95 right here," Bloom said as she handed the money to the pizza delivery man.
"Thanks, kid," The pizza delivery man said, then he pulled out a surprise pizza as he said, "Hey, how's about an extra pizza for no extra change? It's the least I could do for you ladies."
"Really? Aw, thanks, you're so sweet!" Stella said as she grabbed the pizza, then pinched the pizza delivery man on the cheeks as she closed the door behind her.
Once the girls were out of sight, the pizza delivery man could only snicker to himself as he pulled off his disguise to reveal himself as none other than Bugs Bunny, who took a bite from his carrot as he said to the audience, "Gosh, ain't I a stinker?"
Meanwhile, back in the Winx Club's dorm room, Stella placed the pizzas on one of the tables as she and the others got back into their game of Truth or Dare. While they were getting their heads back into the game, Tecna could only look at the pizza suspiciously as she thought to herself, "This seems strange… why would that pizza delivery guy just randomly give us a free pizza alongside our order? Unless this is all part of an insane practical joke…"
"Who was that pizza delivery man at the door, Stella?" Minako asked curiously.
Stella only shrugged her shoulders in response as she said, "I don't know, but I guess he wanted to make sure that he came to the right place because Usagi had ordered a pizza earlier."
While the other girls continued to grill Yaten for her answer about her secret crush, Usagi decided to get a slice of the pizza delivered to the girls' dorm room. However, once she opened the pizza box, she noticed that the pizza was also topped with a ticking bomb that was counting down fast. After making this discovery, she quickly closed the box, then got a sinister idea in mind as she turned to Rei and said in a sing-song voice, "Oh, Rei, could you come here for a second?"
Rei turned to Usagi and said, "Can't it wait, Usagi? We're just this close to hearing about who Yaten's secret crush is."
"Aw, come on, Rei, this is only going to be quick!" Usagi said in an innocent voice.
Rei just sighed heatedly as she walked up to where Usagi was, then she noticed the huge smirk on Usagi's face as she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Alright, Usagi, why did you decide to call me up here?"
"Oh, I just thought that you would like to have the first slice of the super-deluxe pepperoni pizza with extra sausage and bacon bits," Usagi said as she smiled sweetly. "Y'know, as a special treat…"
Rei could only look at Usagi in surprise, then she smiled lightly as she said, "You really mean that, Usagi?"
"I mean, I know we have our clashes and all, but even then, you're still one of my closest friends, Rei, and I mean that genuinely," Usagi said.
Rei continued to look on in surprise as she thought to herself, "Wow… I guess Usagi isn't as annoying as I once thought she was… maybe she's actually maturing…"
Usagi was getting ready to set up Rei for the ultimate punchline, but once she noticed how happy she was and how she was all smiles, she started to have second thoughts, so she decided to tell Rei, "Uhh… on second thought, Rei, how about I get your slice? You go on ahead and learn about Yaten's secret crush…"
"Why? I thought you said it was a special treat," Rei said while raising an eyebrow. "What's going on, Usagi?"
Usagi just sighed as she looked at Rei and said, "Alright, Rei, let me let you in on a little secret…"
"What?" Rei asked.
Once Usagi leaned into Rei's ear, she whispered that she thought that the pizza might be rigged with a bomb that would cause the ultimate cheesy explosion that the girls have never seen before and she believes that it might have been a practical joke set up by the pizza delivery guy. After Rei got this information from Usagi, she looked at her and said, "So, let me get this straight: you think that the pizza delivery guy planted a ticking time bomb into the pizza you ordered as a practical joke meant to throw off the groove of this girls' only slumber party?"
"Yeah, pretty much," Usagi said nonchalantly, shrugging her shoulders.
For a few moments, Rei could only stand there dumbfounded, then she fell to the floor, laughing at Usagi's explanation, wiping a tear from her eye as she said, "Oh, come on, Usagi! That's impossible! Why do you think that pizza delivery guy would plant a bomb into your pizza as a practical joke?"
"Well, unless the pizza delivery guy was a certain rascally rabbit, who else would try to pull that gag off?" Usagi asked.
"Usagi, listen to me," Rei said as she walked towards the pizza. "You have nothing to worry about. I'm sure that this supposed 'bomb' was just for show; I mean, it's not like the pizza is just going to blow up in our faces at any random—"
However, just as Rei made this declaration, the time bomb inside the pizza finally went off, blowing up the pizza and leaving a cheese-pepperoni-sausage-bacon bits mess in the Winx Club's dorm room. Once the girls wised up to what was going on, Layla was the first to speak up, saying, "Sheesh, I've heard of adding more flavor to your pizza, but this is ridiculous! Was there a bomb in that pizza the whole time?"
"Ugh! All this cheese in my hair, and we just got done with our makeovers!" Ami whined as she wiped the cheese from her pigtails.
Usagi and Rei could only look at each other in complete surprise as Usagi whispered, "Uh… should I tell them, Rei, or do you want to do the honors?"
"Do you wanna wait until after the funeral?" Rei asked.
Stella stood up quick and turned to Usagi and Rei, obviously thinking that the two were the ones behind the exploding pizza prank. She stomped over to them and said, "Alright, you two, I understand you wanted to liven things up for this slumber party, but that is NOT how you're supposed to do it!"
"Stella, I understand that you're annoyed, but we didn't put that bomb in the pizza!" Usagi said defensively.
"Oh, really, then why are you two the only ones near the pizza while we were playing Truth or Dare?" Stella asked, staring both Usagi and Rei up and down.
"First of all, Stell, I only came up here because Usagi called for me," Rei said. "How would I know about that bomb if she didn't tell me about it?"
"So, you did place the bomb in the pizza! Ooh, Usagi, I'm gonna—" Stella said, clenching her fists as she made her way towards Usagi until Rei restrained her.
"Hold it, Stella, Usagi was the one who brought my attention to the bomb in the pizza!" Rei explained. "She noticed it when she was going to get the first slice, then she called me up here for … okay, I think she was trying to trick me into setting off the bomb, but still."
"That's not helping our case, Rei …" Usagi said through gritted teeth.
Suddenly, Frankie Stein noticed that the other pizza box was moving, saying, "Uh, girls, I don't mean to interrupt this little interrogation session, but do you realize that the other pizza is moving erratically?"
"Frankie, what are you talking about?" Stella said as she turned to see what Frankie was talking about. "Wait a minute, I hear somebody's voice in there! Oh no… don't tell me…"
"What? What's wrong, Stella?" Ami M. asked in a concerned tone.
Soon, the person in the other pizza box revealed himself to be none other than Taz the Tasmanian Devil, who popped out of the pizza box and spun around for a moment until he noticed all of the cheese, pepperoni, sausage and bacon bits all over the girls' room. He even noticed that some of the pizza landed on the girls themselves, which made him regain his taste buds as he licked his lips and said, "Ooh, this is Taz lucky day! Pizza for Taz!"
As Taz made his way towards the girls, Star looked around the room and said, "Ok, is anyone thinking the same thing I'm thinking right now?"
"Run!" Brandy said.
"Yeah, that's exactly what I'm thinking…" Star said as all of the girls proceeded to run from Taz, who was in hot pursuit of them.
While Taz and the girls engaged in the greatest chase in the history of slumber parties, Daffy was laughing his tailfeathers off at what was happening as Bugs walked away from Alfea, back to his normal self after dressing as a pizza delivery guy. He and Daffy proceeded to exchange high-fives as Daffy said, "Oh, Bugs, for a second there, I was starting to doubt that the one-two punch of the exploding pizza and having Taz eat the reamins was going to work, but man, did you ever prove me wrong!"
"Eh, what can I say, Daffy? This trickster archetype is in a rabbit's blood," Bugs said.
"Well, I hope you can top that, Bugs, because we have to be ready if the girls plan on pulling any revenge pranks on us!" Daffy said with a devious smile.
Meanwhile, back at Alfea, Makoto managed to make her way out of Taz's sight, relaxing on the balcony of the Winx Club's dorm room. Once she made her way outside, however, she noticed that Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck were laughing real hard, talking about their plans for prank retaliation if the girls decide to get their revenge. Makoto could hear Daffy say, "…for the coup de grace, I have plans of calling up a certain secret weapon who could take things to another level."
"Daffy, I don't think we need to go that far," Bugs said in a reasonable tone while munching on his carrot. "Besides, I learned that the hard way when I tried to prove to the state that rabbits could be dangerous creatures."
"So you ended up doing some time in Alcatraz, big deal!" Daffy said. "This is a new era, Bugs, and nothing is going to stand in our way of pulling off the best pranks the Animation Multiverse has ever seen!"
As Daffy made his way back to the neighborhood to prepare a really good prank, Bugs could only roll his eyes in light annoyance as he said to himself, "Oh, brother…"
After Bugs and Daffy left, Makoto was left dumbfounded for a moment, then she smirked deviously as she said to herself, "Oh, so that's how they wanna play, huh? Alright, if Bugs and Daffy want to pull some pranks, we'll give 'em some pranks!"
Moments after the girls cleaned their room after the situation involving a blown-up pizza and being chased around by the Tasmanian Devil, Makoto walked back into the room while sporting a devious smirk on her face, much to the confusion of the other girls in the room. Yumi was the first to notice the devious look on Makoto's face as she raised an eyebrow and said, "Uh… Makoto, what's up with the devious look on your face?"
Makoto could only giggle to herself, shaking her head as she said, "Well, ladies, would you like to know who was behind those three pranks that were pulled on us?"
"Who was it? Was it Ed, Edd and Eddy?" Milky Way asked.
"Nope," Makoto said while shaking her head.
"Riley Freeman?" Layla said with a smirk.
"Close, but no cigar," Makoto said.
"Haruka, Michiru and Setsuna?" Minako asked.
"You're not even in the ballpark with that one, Mina," Makoto said while rolling her eyes.
"Wait a minute, was it one of the Looney Tunes?" Bloom asked.
"If it was one of the Looney Tunes, it would have to have been Bugs or Daffy," Brandy said.
"Actually, it was both Bugs and Daffy," Makoto said. "They were the ones who pulled those pranks on us."
The room was silent for a moment… that is, until Bloom gave a look of surprise, saying, "Now, wait a minute, you mean to tell me that Bugs and Daffy seriously had enough free time to perform a prank call, give us an exploding pizza and having the Tasmanian Devil chase us around the room after we got covered in that pizza?"
"Bingo, and I just heard that they were going to recruit another person to pull off even more embarrassing pranks on us!" Makoto said, inciting reactions of shock and surprise from the girls. "Unless we counteract that by giving those two a taste of their own medicine, this is going to be one long weekend…"
The girls could only sigh in disappointment, upset that they didn't catch up to the antics of the two Looney Tunes earlier until this point. Now, the girls had to come up with a plan to serve some karmic justice against Bugs and Daffy before they come back with more Bob Clampett-style pranks. Suddenly, an idea came into Usagi's head as she said, "Girls, I think I know who we can call to help us!"
The girls all turned to Usagi, all exchanging looks of interest as Jenny asked, "What did you have in mind, Usagi?"
Usagi could only smirk in response as she said, "Oh, you'll see… Stella, could you pass me my cellphone real quick?"
Stella proceeded to pick up Usagi's cellphone and passed it to her, then Usagi dialed a number and proceeded to make a call, saying, "Hey, Haruka, what's up? Listen, are you with Setsuna and Michiru right now? Oh… well, I was going to let you know that we need your help. See, we had to deal with some pranks from the likes of Bugs and Daffy, so we have to come up with pranks of our own and give them a taste of their own medicine… Really? You girls are on your way up here? Well, when are you—wait, you all are here already?!"
Usagi then rushed to the sounds of a knock on the door, then she opened the door to reveal Haruka, Michiru and Setsuna standing at the door coolly as Haruka said with a smirk, "Did someone call a resident revenge prank service?"
The girls all smiled in amazement as they laughed deviously and Bloom said, "Watch your back, Bugs and Daffy, because the girls are back in town!"
While the girls were getting their revenge plans in order, Bugs and Daffy were back at Bugs' house, setting up their plans for another great prank while waiting for Daffy's new recruit to help them create more pranks to pull on the unsuspecting girls at the Winx Club's slumber party. While brainstorming, the two Looney Tunes heard a knock at the door, then Bugs looked at Daffy and said, "Hey, Daff, could you get the door? I think that might be your secret weapon…"
"Oh-ho! It seems that the resident prank queen has finally arrived!" Daffy said with glee as he walked up to the door, then opened it up as he said, "Well, hello, Haru—wait a minute, I don't see anybody… Whoever's out there, if you think that the old 'Ding-Dong Ditch' gag was a great prank, you must be two decades behind, buster!"
Once Daffy slammed the door shut, Bloom, Flora, Usagi, Haruka, Michiru, Yumi and Clawdeen all popped their heads out from the bushes in Bugs' yard as Yumi glared at Flora and said, "Daffy's got a point there, Flora. What made you think that a 'Ding-Dong Ditch' joke was going to be a good idea?"
"Hey, at least it was something!" Flora said in a defensive tone, then switched to a more sympathetic tone as she said, "I didn't want to hurt our Tooniversity professors, even if they did pull those pranks on us …"
"Come on, Flo, get with the program!" Stella said, then she explained, "Besides, it's not like these pranks are going to be life-threatening in any way, shape or form! After all, even if they were, they're Looney Tunes; they could easily brush off those injuries and turn back into their normal selves within the timeframe of a few seconds."
"Well, Stella, do you have any good ideas for a prank?" Haruka asked while raising an eyebrow.
"Oh, trust me, Haruka, I've got an idea for a really good one," Stella said while sporting a devious smirk, gathering the girls into a huddle and whispering her latest plan for a prank against Bugs and Daffy.
Just as this brainstorm session was occurring among the girls, Daffy made his way back to Bugs to continue with their plans for more new pranks against the Winx Club and their slumber party guests. Just as Daffy walked back to where Bugs was, the rabbit turned to him and asked, "Hey, Daffy, who was that at the door?"
"Ah, it was no one, just some amateur pranksters who thought it was a good idea to do the old 'Ding-Dong Ditch' routine," Daffy explained while shaking his head. "I mean, don't people have any other good ideas for pranks anymore?"
Suddenly, there was another knock on the door as Bugs playfully said, "Well, what do you know, Daffy? Maybe that's somebody who's worthy of pulling off superior pranks."
"Hmm… it could be," Daffy said with a smirk, hiding a lit bomb behind his back as he walked up to the door.
Once he opened the door, Daffy expected a series of pranks to come his way, but he only saw Yumi standing at his doorway with a hand-wrapped Christmas present in her hand. Curious, Daffy raised an eyebrow as he said in a suspicious tone, "Well, hello, Yumi, just what are you up to now?"
"Oh, hey, Daffy, I just wanted to give you an early Christmas present, just so you could have something under the big tree in time for the big day," Yumi said with a smile as she held up the present in her hands.
"Well, thank you, Yumi, I really appreciate—wait just a minute, this isn't one of your stupid, run-of-the-mill pranks here, is it?" Daffy said while glaring at Yumi.
Yumi could only gasp in faux shock as she said, "Why, Daffy, I'm surprised at you! I just wanted to get a special gift for my favorite professor at the Warner Bros. Cartoon Tooniversity and you act as if I tried to pull a heartless prank on you? Why I'm… I'm really hurt by this accusation…"
Playing on Daffy's sympathies, Yumi started to sniffle and tear up a bit, causing Daffy to feel empathetic for the rockstar, turning to the audience and saying, "Y'know, maybe that was a little too harsh…"
He then turned back to Yumi and said, "Aw, I'm sorry, Yumi, I just thought that this would've been one of the revenge pranks set by the Winx Club girls because of what had occurred earlier, but I guess you were being genuine about it. Thanks for the kind gesture…"
"Well, you're welcome, Daffy," Yumi said with a small smile as she sniffled a bit more. "Just don't flip out on me like that again, okay?"
"Alright, alright, I won't!" Daffy said. "Just go on out and enjoy your Spring Break, okay?"
Once Daffy shut the door, Yumi just turned back to her normal self as she said, "Hope you enjoy the gift, sucker!"
As Daffy walked back to Bugs with the gift in tow, Bugs gave a look of suspicion upon seeing Daffy enter with the gift and said, "Eh, Daffy, who was that at the door and where did you get the gift from? It's not even Christmas yet!"
"Oh, that was Yumi at the door," Daffy said with a smirk. "She just stopped by and dropped this gift off for me, just so I could have something special for myself before the big day. It was pretty random, but I appreciate the effort."
As soon as Daffy placed the gift on the table, there was yet another knock heard on the door as Daffy started to get annoyed, saying to himself, "Oh, brother… who could it be now?"
After hearing the third knock on the door for the evening, Daffy rushed up to the door and shouted, "Listen, if you girls are out there trying to pull more pranks on us for the rest of the evening, you will have another thing coming! So, take your pathetic pranks and practical jokes back to where you all came from!"
Although Daffy expected to see a "pathetic prank" from the girls at the Winx Club's slumber party, he was surprised to hear a certain voice saying, "Uh… I don't know about any pathetic pranks or practical jokes, but I can totally see why they call you 'Daffy'."
Upon hearing the voice, Daffy's eyes widened for a bit, then he looked up at the person who possessed such a voice. The person in question was a catlike, tall and slender young woman who wore a bright red coat, black pants, white boots, a white scarf, and a pair of goggles wrapped around her hair. Once he took a good look at the woman, Daffy just gulped in response as he smiled and chuckled sheepishly, saying, "Oh, uh… heh-heh… hello, Haruko."
Once he heard the commotion, Bugs walked up to where Daffy and Haruko were, saying to the duck, "Wait a minute, Daffy? How did you get in contact with Haruko?"
"Oh, hey there, Bugs, it's been a while," Haruko said while sporting a smirk.
Haruko's comment to Bugs surprised Daffy, causing the rabbit to roll his eyes as Daffy said, "Forget asking how I got in contact with Haruko, Bugs! My question is how did you know about Haruko all this time!"
"We had an encounter while I was working on one of those new Looney Tunes cartoons a while ago," Bugs said while taking a bite from his carrot.
"Wait, are you trying to say that you… and Haruko…" Daffy said, trying to put two and two together.
However, Bugs quickly quelled Daffy's suspicions as he said in a reassuring tone, "What? Daffy, I don't know what you were thinking about, but it wasn't even like that! She was trying to sneak onto the set and tried to act as one of my usual rivals. I quickly saw through her ruse, but I just played along… for as long as most 6-minute cartoons could go, anyway."
"I wouldn't say 'sneak', you sly rabbit," Haruko said playfully, batting her eyelids while leaning towards Bugs.
"Eh, I hate to be rude here, Haruko, but it wouldn't have worked out between us," Bugs said as he coolly pushed Haruko away from him. "Besides, I already have a girlfriend and Daffy's taken, too."
"Can we just get back to the topic at hand, please?!" Daffy said in an annoyed tone as he walked back into the house. "We've got a full book of pranks just waiting to be pulled."
As Daffy walked back inside the house to prepare for the next set of pranks, Haruko and Bugs followed suit as Haruko just rolled her eyes and smirked at Daffy, saying, "Sheesh! Talk about pushy, Daffy. Listen, why don't you just cool your jets here, Daffy, and let the prank mistress show you how it's done?"
Daffy's eyes widened in surprise as he said with a huge smile, "You mean to tell me that you have a huge set of pranks ready from the get-go?"
"Oh, come now, that's just like asking if Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player who ever lived!" Haruko said with a smirk as she pulled out a bag containing a huge set of practical jokes and pranks, much to the surprise of Bugs and the amazement of Daffy.
As Haruko opened the bag and revealed its contents inside, Bugs and Daffy saw that the various pranks included were hot sauce, an explosive can of jelly beans filled with snake plushies, invisibility spray, prank holograms that could produce exact replicas of any cartoon character or famous celebrity in the universe, and even a mind-control device that could make any character do whatever was asked by the person in control.
"Wow, Haruko, you really pulled out all the stops for this one!" Daffy said while sporting a devious smile and rubbing his hands deviously.
Haruko could only smile in response as she blew her nails and rubbed them, saying, "What can I say? I'm just chock full of surprises!"
Bugs also took a look into Haruko's bag of tricks as he said in an amazed tone, "Yeah, I definitely see your point there, doc…"
"So, Haruko, where should we start?" Daffy said eagerly.
Haruko just giggled in response as she said while sporting a playful smile, "Well, with so many gags to choose from, why don't we start with the hot sauce?"
However, before the group could get this prank war started, Haruko took note of the gift on Bugs' table, picking it up as she asked the rabbit, "Hey, Bugs, why do you have a random Christmas gift on your table? It's not even the holidays yet."
"That's not my gift, Haruko," Bugs said. "It's Daffy's; Yumi gave it to him earlier this evening."
"Oh, really?" Haruko said, then she shook the box, noticing that it sounded like a ticking time bomb was inside.
Not wanting to miss out on a classic opportunity of seeing Daffy's gift blowing up in his own face, Haruko put on a sweet façade as she walked up to Daffy and said, "Um, Daffy, I think it would be best if you opened the gift now. I think that Yumi girl really knows a lot about what you like."
Daffy chuckled warmly in response as he took the gift from Haruko and said, "Well, alright, Haruko, if you say so."
Once Daffy proceeded to unwrap the present, however, everything ended up blowing up right in his face the moment he opened the box. After the explosion had occurred, Daffy was left disheveled and very annoyed, much to the enjoyment of Haruko, who proceeded to laugh at Daffy's predicament as she walked up to the duck and said, "You see, Daffy? This is why you have to be wary of the things these other Toons would do to you. You never know what they have in store when it comes to revenge pranks, so you have to keep a close eye out. Besides, you don't wanna get caught slipping out there, do ya?"
While Haruko and Bugs proceeded to get the pranks in order, Daffy just took one look at the audience and muttered to himself, "That girl's unspeakably despicable!"
Back at Alfea College, the girls were at the Winx's dorm, discussing the prank Yumi had pulled on Daffy and the possible after-effects. After Yumi explained what she had put into her gift for Daffy, Star Butterfly asked, "So, Yumi, do you think Daffy will be annoyed once he figures out what's really in that box you gave him as his early Christmas present?"
"Who knows, but it will be worth it in the end!" Yumi said while sporting a devious smile. "Besides, it would at least teach that duck a thing or two about pulling off these kinds of pranks during our Slumber Party weekend."
"Well, now that we got our revenge against Daffy, what are we going to do about Bugs?" Roxy said while rubbing her chin. "After all, he was the one who managed to get in the one-two punch of delivering the exploding pizza, then getting the Tasmanian Devil to chase us all around the room to get a taste of said pizza."
Rei could only shudder in response as she said to Roxy, "Roxy, please don't remind me of that. I already had to wash my hair out because of Taz chewing all over it just to get to the pepperoni."
"Well, don't worry about a thing, Roxy," Michiru said, placing a hand on Roxy's shoulder. "I'm positive that we'll have a big surprise in store for that rascally rabbit as the night rolls on."
While the girls engaged in laughter over the pranks, there was suddenly a knock on the door, leaving the girls confused as they weren't expecting any sort of company this late in the evening. However, amidst the curiosities, Ami M. decided to step up and see who it could be as this time of the evening. Once she walked up to the door and opened it, however, the girls were all surprised to Alfea's headmistress, Miss Faragonda, standing at the doorway… or at least the woman they thought was Miss Faragonda.
"Miss Faragonda?!" The Winx Club girls all said in simultaneous surprise.
"Girls, I think we need to have a talk…" "Miss Faragonda" said in a stern tone, trying to hold back the actual voice of the woman in question.
Meanwhile, Bugs and Daffy were busy covering the steps with slippery goo, then setting up the tar and feather machines at the bottom. Daffy could only look at Bugs as he asked, "Bugs, why did Haruko think it was a good idea to just paint the steps with slippery goo? Does she really think she can lure the girls out of the dorm room and get them to come down here, slipping all the way down the stairs, so they could be tarred and feathered?"
"Don't look at me, Daffy, you were the one who mentioned that Sylvester tried this trick on Elmer Fudd once—aside from the use of tar and feathers, that is," Bugs said while smirking at the duck.
"Well, true… but you get where I'm coming from, right?" Daffy said, sporting a hopeful smile.
"I'll have to get back to you on that one, doc," Bugs said with a smirk.
Before Daffy could come up with a response to Bugs, however, the two Looney Tunes heard the voice of "Miss Faragonda" leading the girls to where they were, so they decided to hide from the group until the prank had occurred. Once "Miss Faragonda" led the girls to the slippery steps, and where the tar and feather machines were located, Yaten and Flora were among the few who were suspicious of the presence of "Miss Faragonda", as well as if the woman in question was the real Miss Faragonda, as Yaten whispered to Flora, "Y'know, Flora, I seriously doubt that this woman is the real Miss Faragonda …"
"I can see what you mean there, Yaten," Flora whispered in response. "Her voice sounds different, she decided to come to our room for no important reason and she seems rather… mischievous than usual."
"Now, ladies, if you want to improve your endurance, you all will have to go through this obstacle course I have set up for you…" "Miss Faragonda" said to the girls while sporting a cat-like smile.
Once the cat-like smile appeared on her face, it seemed to be the point where the girls finally realize that this woman was not the real Miss Faragonda. Bloom jumped up to the front and said, "Pardon me if I come off as rude, but … who are you, exactly? Oh, and don't say you are Miss Faragonda because the real Miss Faragonda doesn't act this suspicious without reason."
When she realized that the girls had become savvy to her tricks, the woman finally switched out of her "Miss Faragonda" disguise while saying to the girls, "Well, I was waiting for you to finally wise up and realize the truth, sister… I may not be Miss Faragonda, but I think it would be better if you ladies referred to me as …"
Once she finally spun out of her "Miss Faragonda" disguise, the woman revealed herself to be Haruko Haruhara with a declaration of, "The screwiest adversary you girls will ever had the honor of battling with!"
After Haruko revealed her true self to the girls, most of the girls expressed shock at the fact that Haruko was the one behind the "Miss Faragonda" practical joke, though the Sailor Guardians were surprised that it was Haruko as Usagi was the first to shout, "Haruko? You were in on this prank the whole time?!"
"Well, my dear Usagi, are you and your friends surprised to see me again?" Haruko said while sporting a devious smirk, then she proceeded to pull the rug from underneath the girls as she added, "Well, I bet you all won't be too surprised when I put you through this little obstacle course that Daffy, Bugs and I set up!"
Once she pulled the rug from the girls, all of the girls slipped for a bit until they started to tumble down the stairs one-by-one, each slipping on the slippery goo painted by Bugs and Daffy, then after slipping on more goo present on the floor, the girls continued to slide until they ended up crashing into the wall. After the crash, Haruko called out to Bugs and Daffy, "Okay, fellas, proceed with the tar and feathering!"
"With pleasure, whoo-hoo-hoo!" Daffy said as he and Bugs respectively turned on the tar and feather machines, causing each of the girls to get covered in tar first, then get covered in feathers.
After the girls were tarred and feathered, Haruko, Bugs and Daffy could do nothing but roll in hysterics as Bugs said, "You know, I would normally never go this far when it comes to practical jokes — unless it was Yosemite Sam —but this was actually hilarious!"
"See, Bugs? I told you that you would have fun during this prank war!" Daffy said, wiping a tear from his eye amid all of the laughter that was occurring.
After The Trio calmed down after their raucous laughter, Haruko stood up and dusted herself off as she said, "Come on, guys, let's go back and see what other pranks we can pull."
After Haruko, Bugs and Daffy left the premises of Alfea College, the girls slowly but surely started to get up from this embarrassing predicament, all covered in tar and feathers. While they would be used to the antics of the Looney Tunes, this prank was just too humiliating for them to take this lying down! Although they were feeling uncomfortable due to the tar and feathers covering them, the girls were still reeling in embarrassment and seething with vitriol. Stella was the first to voice her discomfort, saying, "Okay, I can take the prank phonecalls, the exploding pizza gag… heck, I can even take having the Tasmanian Devil chase us around our room, trying to get a taste of said exploding pizza… but having this Haruko girl disguise herself as our headmistress and try to trick us into engaging in an embarrassing obstacle course that would end up in us getting tarred and feathered? That's definitely the last straw!"
"Honestly, Stella, I would've thought that Taz chasing us around was actually the last straw," Makoto quipped while rolling her eyes.
"I wouldn't try to start a debate over this, girls," Clawdeen said. "Once we get these feathers off of us and wash this tar off, we definitely have to start ramping up our pranking efforts!"
"Well, how are our pranks going to compete against what they did to us?" Minako said. "I mean, think about it: it's literally the clown prince of the Looney Tunes and the most-invincible hero of all Looney Tunes characters teaming up with someone known for her quirkiness and over-the-top antics!"
The girls tried to think about it, but it quickly dawned on them that there is strength in numbers. Haruko, Bugs and Daffy may have more experience in pulling off these kinds of tricks against their adversaries—in Bugs' case, in a karmic fashion—but the girls have got the brains and more resources compared to what The Trio might have. Once they walked back into their room and cleaned the tar and feathers off of them, they immediately got to work on preparing their next set of pranks on The Trio of Bugs, Daffy and Haruko. However, they would be ultimately surprised when they figure out what those Toons are capable of…
After the obstacle course prank that was said to be the straw that broke the camel's back, the girls proceeded to ramp up their efforts when it comes to the pranks while Bugs, Daffy and Haruko decided to keep up and top whatever pranks the girls came at them with by responding with something that was even more over-the-top than usual. While Bugs, Daffy and Haruko was busy setting up their next prank, Makoto and Yasmina quickly baked a carrot pie with a dash of tabasco sauce and added in a certain secret ingredient. The two girls giggled after making said carrot pie as Yasmina said, "Oh, I can't wait until Bugs sinks his teeth into this one!"
"Yeah, it's going to be such an explosive experience!" Makoto said in-between her giggling.
As Yasmina placed the carrot pie next to where Bugs was standing, the scent of the pie had charmed Bugs enough that he decided to take a slice of the carrot pie and ate it in one go. Tasty enough … that is, until Bugs' mouth felt like it was on fire, causing the rabbit to hop around all over the place, trying to put out the flame until he rushed to a nearby water fountain and tried to douse the flames in his mouth.
Daffy and Haruko were confused as to why Bugs reacted that strongly to carrot pie until Haruko investigated the pie and found the secret ingredient that was placed inside.
"Huh, a red hot chili pepper," Haruko said coolly, investigating the secret ingredient in her hand. "Oldest trick in the book."
A moment later, the girls were busy engaging in a pillow fight, all while Haruko snuck in from the ceiling, holding a bottle of honey in her hand and poured it all over the girls, then she took out a can of fire ants and shook it all over the honey. The girls were initially unaware of the honey and fire ants, but once they felt the ants chewing all over themselves, they all screamed out in pain as they rushed out of the room, just as Bugs and Daffy engaged in raucous laughter.
All while the prank war was ensuing between the girls and The Trio, Marvin the Martian had stopped by Bugs' house to drop off a package for Daffy. However, he realized that neither Bugs nor Daffy weren't at home, but he noticed that there was a note left at the door. Marvin took the note off of the door and proceeded to read it:
To Whom It May Concern:
We are currently not home at the moment. Daffy and I are currently embroiled in an ongoing prank war against the Winx Club girls and their guests at their Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend. If you have stopped by for a visit or have come to drop off a package for either Daffy or myself, please leave a message and we'll get back to you… hopefully.
Sincerely,
Bugs Bunny
"An ongoing prank war, huh?" Marvin said, raising an eyebrow. "I wonder what led to the ensuing prank war in question. I wouldn't be surprised if Daffy decided to drag Bugs into this and eventually had to recruit a secret weapon to help them pull off even more over-the-top pranks and practical jokes. Maybe I should go down to Alfea College and see what's up. Hopefully, the pranks haven't been too extreme…"
As Marvin made his way to Alfea College, the pranks were just getting wilder, crazier and… even loonier, to say the least. From anvils being dropped like nobody's business to buckets of water being poured on unsuspecting victims, it seems that this prank war looked as if it had no way of ending. However, as the night rolled on, though, both groups seemed as if they were genuinely enjoying their night of pranks, which seemed to be better than what they had originally planned for their respective evenings.
After a particularly-successful prank that involved bombs disguised as basketballs being sent to Daffy and Bugs, the girls were back in the Winx Club's dorm room, engaging in laughter as they not only got back at Bugs and Daffy again, but they were growing to enjoy the evening of pranks that had occurred. Even the most-reserved of the girls, Ami M. and Flora, were enjoying themselves as they pulled these pranks on The Trio.
"Oh, my gosh, this evening has been so awesome!" Jenny said with a smile.
"I guess Bugs and Daffy didn't see those pranks coming, let alone expecting that kind of Looney Tunes energy coming from us girls!" Setsuna said while laughing.
While they were engaged in laughter, the girls realized that they had to come up with one more prank to wrap up the evening, but it had to be something bigger than what Bugs, Daffy and Haruko would have as their final prank for the evening, so they immediately proceeded to come up with a plan for what they would consider to be the "ultimate prank". Unbeknownst to them, Marvin had peeked into their room to see what they would have in store as a prank. While surveying their room, Marvin noticed a can of cake frosting laying near the door, then surveyed the can after picking it up, saying, "Hmm… I don't know what these girls would do with this cake frosting, but it wouldn't hurt."
After picking up the can of cake frosting, Marvin left the girls' dorm room and decided to see what The Trio was up to. Once he caught up with The Trio, he noticed that their prank was going to involve disguising themselves as big, scary monsters, hoping to scare some sense into the girls. While looking at their arsenal of pranks, Marvin noticed some leftover sticks of dynamite around the premises. As he picked up a couple of them, he proceeded to walk off as he said, "If these earthlings want to see some serious pranking, they'll surely be surprised once they've seen what I've come up with!"
After both groups had come up with their final pranks for the evening, they had decided to put them to the test as they regrouped at the battlefield. For their final prank, the girls decided to disguise themselves as spooky ghosts to scare The Trio, but The Trio decided to one-up that by disguising themselves as superpowered versions of the MonStars, even making themselves seem even more intimidating and threatening than the original MonStars. However, before both groups could engage in this scare prank war, they were suddenly stopped by the presence of Marvin the Martian, who said, "Why, hello there, everyone! I see that you all are enjoying your prank war for the evening…"
"Marvin, is that you?" Bugs said, taking off his Monstar costume as he was surprised to see Marvin.
"Well, of course, it's me!" Marvin said. "Who did you expect? Elmer Fudd?"
"Oh, come on, Marvin," Bugs said with a smirk as he took a bite from his carrot. "You're still using that joke from our old Hare Jordan commercials?"
"Oh, like you don't say 'What's up, Doc?' everyday, Bugs?" Rei said while sporting a playful smirk, inciting an annoyed reaction from Bugs.
"Now, look, everyone, I would like to go down memory lane and talk about the predecessors to Space Jam as much as the next martian, but I have something important to show you!" Marvin said as he led both groups to the Coup de Grace of the prank war.
Once Marvin led both groups to the exact location of where his prank was, both groups were amazed at what Marvin led them to: a gigantic Acme-brand cake with sticks of dynamite serving as candles. Although both groups were impressed at what Marvin managed to do in such a short amount of time, Haruko was even more impressed as she said, "Wow… I gotta say, Marvin, in all of my 19 years of life, this is probably the most-impressive cake I have ever seen!"
"Yes… as a matter of fact, why don't you all go ahead and give it a…" Marvin began to say until he was interrupted by both groups rushing up to the cake. "…taste."
While both groups were enjoying the cake, Marvin decided to pull of the prank to end all pranks by holding up a remote that lit the sticks of dynamite, then he ran off to a safe spot as the fuses were slowly lit on each stick of dynamite. Before the inevitable explosion, Marvin looked at the audience and said, "Yes, I know such pranking is beneath me, but it's fun! I can't wait to see the looks on their faces!"
Once Marvin took a look at his watch and counted down from 10, the cake had finally exploded, leaving the girls and The Trio covered in a cake frosting-filled wonderland! Upon seeing this prank go off without a hitch, Marvin hopped out from the bushes as he said, "Yes! It worked! It worked! It really worked! I have solidifed my status as the ultimate prank king of the world!"
The girls and The Trio all popped out of the cake frosting in complete surprise as Rei said, "Wait a minute, Marvin, you mean to tell me that this cake was a huge practical joke this whole time?!"
"Why, yes, I heard about your ongoing prank war that was going on tonight, so I decided to jump in on the fun," Marvin explained. "I only had a few limited resources—the cake frosting, the sticks of dynamite—but it managed to be worth it in the end."
While Marvin continued laughing, the girls, Daffy and Haruko were especially annoyed by how Marvin played them like a fiddle. While they all gathered around the martian and do something unspeakable, Bugs quickly stepped up in the martian's defense, saying, "Wait a minute, folks! Listen, I know that Marvin's prank was a little over-the-top, but let's be honest here: a lot of our pranks that we pulled on each other was over-the-top. I mean, c'mon, the exploding pizzas, the obstacle course, the hot-and-spicy carrot pie… every single prank that we had pulled on each other was no better than what Marvin did. However, we still had fun amidst all of that. It was all wrapped up in such a fun evening filled with pranks, practical jokes and a few classic Looney Tunes in-jokes. Listen, ladies, I know you girls might've been upset about the pranks Daffy and I pulled on you all earlier…"
"All of a sudden, you just toss me to the side like a windshield wiper," Haruko muttered to herself.
"…but you have to understand: Daffy just wanted to liven up your Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend with something that would be fun," Bugs said, much to the surprise of Daffy. "I know it must be embarrassing to see your own Tooniversity professors act like their old, screwball selves for this evening—and believe me, it probably won't be the first time—but we're still Looney Tunes at heart, so I just hope you girls aren't too sour about what had transpired. If you girls are mad at us, then I understand… Anyway, sorry we messed up your first night of this Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend you had set up…"
Just as Bugs started to walk away, however, he and Daffy ended up getting hugged by Makoto and Minako as some of the other girls laughed and Usagi said, "Are you kidding, Professor Bunny? This was the best night of our Spring Break so far!"
"It was?" Bugs and Daffy said in simultaneous surprise.
"Yeah, I mean, it was annoying and a little embarrassing at first, but as the night rolled on, it was so much fun to just cut loose and be wild!" Stella said with a smile. "Besides, it was pretty funny seeing you guys utilize your classic Looney Tunes knowledge to good use."
"I mean, the fact that you guys had invited Haruko Haruhara to help you out with some of the more extreme pranks only added more to the entertainment factor," Haruka said with a smirk.
Haruko was surprised that the girls were taking this all so well, but she eventually gave a genuine smile when she saw how impressed they were by their pranks.
"Well, thanks, ladies, but you girls did pretty well with the pranks yourselves," Bugs said with a smile. "I guess it just proves that we taught you well, but I still wanna know who gave you the idea to do the old 'Ding-Dong Ditch' gag…"
The girls initially turned to Flora, who just blushed red until she said, "Well, don't look at me! Professor Porky Pig had mentioned a gag like that in class one day!"
"He said he saw Daffy do that kind of thing once…" Roxy said, leaving Daffy feeling pretty embarrassed.
"Well, anyway, ladies, how about we go ahead and continue our Spring Break Slumber Party Weekend?" Bloom said as the girls all cheered.
Once they rushed back into Alfea College, Bugs, Daffy, Marvin and Haruko all sighed with relief that the girls not only took all of the pranks so well, but actually had so much fun pulling pranks themselves and had a good sense of humor to boot. Soon, Bugs and Marvin left Alfea College to return to the suburbs, leaving only Daffy and Haruko. Daffy looked up at Haruko and said, "Say, Haruko, I just want to thank you for giving Bugs and I a helping hand when it came to pulling off those pranks."
"Aw, don't mention it, Daffy, it's the least I could do," Haruko said as she proceeded to leave the scene as well, only confusing Daffy.
"Hey, wait a minute, Haruko! Where are you going?" Daffy asked.
"Oh, Daffy, I forgot to tell you that you had left that fake jellybean can filled with plush snakes in the Winx Club's dorm room, so you might wanna go ahead and run off as fast as you can!" Haruko said as she proceeded to run.
Once Haruko made this declaration, Daffy was confused at first, but then he realized that he did leave that fake jellybean can in the Winx's dorm room at one point. When Star opened the aforementioned can, creating a giant explosion of plush snakes in the process, and upon seeing the crowd of plush snakes amidst the accompanying shrieks from the girls, Daffy could only look at the audience and say, "Well, I guess one thing is clear: never leave a fake can of jellybeans filled with plush snakes in the room of a prank victim. I should've given them some pies for extra leverage instead! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!"
As Daffy bounced and 'Whoo-hoo'd' his way out of Alfea College, the girls had all rushed out of the dorm room to chase after Daffy, hopefully getting an opportunity to pull off a revenge prank against the screwball duck.
After the screen fades to black, the signature Looney Tunes red rings appeared on the screen as Bugs Bunny popped up through the rings, munching on a carrot as he said to the audience, "…and that's the end!"
Finally, an update for the Animation Multiverse series! Sorry for the long wait for this chapter to be completed: I had just gotten caught up with some schoolwork and preparing for the last two weeks of class before finals week, then it is Christmas break! Hopefully, I will be able to work on some more episodes during that time, but as for now, only time will tell…
Anyway, I was hoping to get this episode done earlier than intended, but I am finally done with it now! This episode features the series debut of Haruko Haruhara from FLCL; you might be seeing her take the lead in some later episodes, so stay tuned for that. This is practically a new-and-improved version of a similar episode concept I had back in 2016 that involved a similar slumber party prank war, but the subplot that had involved Sam, Clover and Alex teaming up with Yakko, Wakko and Dot was getting pretty tricky to write. To be honest, this episode was pretty fun to write, actually taking a first shot at writing for Haruko Haruhara and utilizing some interesting interactions among the female characters of the cast. Anyway, as always, "Stay Tooned" for the next episode and thanks for reading, folks!
