[frogs croaking]

[villagers murmuring]

- [baby crying] - Okay, guys. Listen up.

We are here today to recruit volunteers to join the Resistance.

Join us today and give Amphibia a fighting chance.

Are there any perks?

Besides saving your world? Well...

There sure are!

And allow me to tell you all about ’em.

Oh, frog, no.

This plant was grown underground

in our very own hydroponics-based resistance garden.

Join us, and you, too, can take part in a horticultural revolution!

- Oh, no. We’re losing ’em. - Anne, code blue!

Wait a second, everyone.

If you join today, you could eventually look like this.

[grunts]

- [cheering] - All right! Sign me up!

[sighs]

Resistance forces detected.

Tracking device activated.

Wowza. Almost half the caravan signed up.

Here’s to another successful recruitment.

[cheering]

Baa.

What’s wrong, Hop Pop?

Sometimes I feel like I’m the only person

who actually appreciates cultivating nature.

I mean, farming is cool.

- Totally. - Of course.

Super cool.

I just wish I could be surrounded by people

who love what I love for a change.

[wind whistles]

Did we take a wrong turn somewhere?

I have no idea where we even are.

[thuds]

[all screaming]

[wind whistles]

[gasps]

What happened? Am I dead? Where are the kids?

What in the--

Kids, wake up!

Huh? Where are we?

And why are we all wearing dresses?

[all gasp]

[children giggling]

[all murmuring]

What ho, friends.

So you’re awake.

Name’s Horace.

Welcome to the hidden village of Gardenton.

Gardenton?

That wasn’t on any map.

We don’t like drawing attention to our little slice of paradise.

A place were every frog is a highly-skilled horticulturist.

Our plants are treated with the love and respect they deserve.

I don’t believe it.

This place is full of frogs just like me!

Oh, do I sense a fellow plantophile?

Guess who has two green thumbs and loves the smell of fertilizer.

This guy!

- Ooh! [chuckles] - [all laughing]

Clever, clever. You do have the thumbs.

A village of horticulturalists? Now we’re talking.

Let’s recruit ’em. I’ll take point!

I don’t know, HP.

Does the Resistance really need plant people?

Yeah, the last village made catapults.

I don’t exactly think horticult--

I’m doing it.

Horace, my friend, we’ve got a proposal,

and, as head of this town, I think you’re gonna wanna hear it.

Oh, I’m afraid I’m not the head of this community.

Oh, well, can you take us to your leader?

But of course.

Follow me to the greenhouse.

Say, Horace, have you seen our snail or wagon?

They’ve been stored safely.

Now come along.

[giggling]

I’m officially creeped out.

[birds chirping]

Horace, this place is incredible!

These parsnips are prodigious!

Ghost orchids?

The balance of heat and humidity must be perfect!

And this-- this is just a big cucumber!

I’m glad you like it, but it wasn’t always like this.

In fact, the land before you used to be barren and lifeless.

But then he appeared.

And with his guidance, we were able to become one with nature.

- [crunching] - Whoopsie-daisy.

[screams]

[all sobbing]

[all sobbing, groaning]

[screams]

[screaming]

Uh, is it insensitive if I say this feels like an overreaction?

Please, guests, be careful.

These plants are as much members of our community as we are.

My apologies, Horace.

Some of us don’t respect nature.

[sobbing, groaning continues]

[distorted chanting]

[Horace] We have arrived.

You must be the mayor. Put her there!

[clears throat] Not a toucher, eh? That’s okay. Not everyone is.

[clears throat] Uh, we’d be mighty obliged

if you and your green-fingered friends joined our little resistance.

We’ve got hydroponics like you wouldn’t believe.

Uh, we also have casual Fridays and bagel Tuesdays...

Kids, am I forgettin’ anything?

Hey, is this guy asleep or some--

[all] Oh, my frog!

[distorted cackling]

Well, well, well, if it isn’t Hopediah Plantar.

[gasps] Jeremy the Beetle?

No, up here, you idiot.

It’s me, Apothecary Gary.

[all] Apothecary Gary?

[groaning]

Zombies!

Ha ha! Guess those muscles were just for show.

I-I don’t understand. You’re extinct!

I saw to it myself!

I nearly was,

but thanks to Jeremy here, I was able to survive

and make my way out of Wartwood.

Problem was, I was weak

and needed to find a place to regrow my strength.

It’s a harsh world out there for a little spore and his beetle host.

Then I was taken in by these folks,

and together, we formed a true symbiotic relationship.

You see, these frogs wanted my spores because it made them better gardeners.

It wasn’t mind control. Not this time, really.

And with this power, we turned Gardenton into a paradise.

I’ve never had willing subjects before.

And let me tell you, it makes a big difference.

- [growling] - [screaming]

With Gary’s spores, we can feel the very needs of the plants we cultivate.

We’re one with nature! It’s perfect harmony.

[all] Perfect harmony.

[whistles]

Well, this has all been very educational.

Kids, now!

[all screaming]

[grunts]

After them!

We can’t let them escape and lead others to Gardenton!

[all groaning]

We need to find Bessie.

[chirping]

[grumbling]

Hang on, girl!

- [Apothecary Gary] Not so fast. - [all gasp]

[screaming]

You have to admit this is all pretty cool.

See how versatile plants can be?

[all] Not the time, Hop Pop!

Well, Plantars, are you ready...

- [beeping] - ...to be fertilizer?

Hold on, can anyone hear that?

Kind of an obnoxious beeping sound?

Resistance base located. Extermination team deployed.

Oh, hey. When did that get there?

Extermination team? What the heck is that?

[rumbling]

- [both scream] - It burns us!

[all screaming]

Our precious plants! No!

I know a golden opportunity when I see one.

Come on, guys!

[villagers screaming]

Well, that worked out.

Yeah, sure did.

[sighs]

You wanna go back and help them, don’t you?

- Yes, please. - [groans]

Don’t hurt me. I’m just a cute little beetle!

[grunts]

Hyah!

Plantars? You’re back?

Yes. Burn!

[screeching]

We’ll help too!

Charge!

[groaning]

[groaning]

[all panting]

Dang, Gary. That was some incredible coordination.

Thanks. It comes with the whole hive mind situation.

You and your kids fight well too.

What can I say? We’ve had a lot of practice.

Okay, well, I think, um...

We’re still going to try and kill you guys.

Yeah, let’s just go with that. Attack!

Gary, wait! I know we’ve had some bad history.

You tried to enslave my hometown,

and I violently murdered you that one time.

Yes. Yes, you did.

But your skills as a botanist and farmer are undeniable!

[chuckles] Oh, stop. You’re making me blush!

My whole life, I’ve been lookin’ for folks who care about farming as much as I do.

And, well, here you are!

Won’t you join our Resistance and help us take down King Andrias?

Well, I don’t know...

Gary, if we don’t do something, the village will always be under threat.

That’s right! They know the location of your village now.

That’s a good point.

And Gardenton is so isolated, I had no idea how bad it was out there.

Well, Hopediah, you can count on us!

Let us know when and where to be, and we will be there.

- I cannot believe this is happening. - Ditto.

Hey, Gary, one more thing.

Andrias has been using these mind-control collars,

and we think they’re utilizing spores similar to yours.

Huh? Then that means there must be at least one more of me out there.

Oh, that’s amazing!

And who knows? Maybe it’s a lady mushroom.

That’s not a thing.

Yes. [chuckles] Well, everyone knows that.

Okay, see ya around!

[wind whistling]

[clears throat] So, anyone else lovin’ the feel of these dresses?

- Oh, yeah, absolutely. - Heck yeah!

- Mm-hmm. - A guy can really breathe in these.
