Dr. Fuzzleglove makes a grilled cheese machine, but things go awry as he accidentally sets it to the "Super Duper" setting, creating a powerful blast, resulting in six ordinary bunnies all over Important City becoming anthropomorphic and receiving superpowers. Afterwards, Dr. Annabelle, the bunny with intelligence, finds Stumpy (who was unnamed at the time) and takes him to meet the other bunnies, Handsome Steve with the power to fly, Midnight Bun Bun with shadow powers, Bex with electric powers, and Derek with the power to grow. The bunnies give Stumpy his name, since he used to live by a stump in a park, but is unaware of what power he has. The bunnies go to get tacos for the first time, but is approached by Dr. Fuzzleglove, demanding them to join him in evil, but they blatantly ignore him. He showcases his mind-controlling helmet and gets a large sea monster to mess with their lunch, setting the bunnies (except Stumpy) up for their first fight. However, they fail and get captured. Just as the sea monster begins to smush the bunnies, Stumpy stretches his arms and grabs the sea monster's tentacle, realizing his power is elasticity. After too getting captured, Stumpy distracts Fuzzleglove and steals his helmet, and making the sea monster flick him far away. The bunnies celebrate Stumpy's new powers and are applauded by the citizens of Important City as the Super Duper Bunny League. With his super strength, Handsome Steve struggles to get the miniature golf ball into the hole. Later on, a worker finds the missing part of a staff held by a wizard sculpture. When he puts the part together, the wizard, named Lord Sourman, comes to life and seeks vengeance by "souring" Important City with his dragon Sourbreath. The Super Duper Bunny League try to stop him but his sourness is too powerful. It's all up to Handsome Steve to get the "Sourstone" off of the staff before Important City is soured forever. | |||||||
