Plot[]
The birds are relaxing in their hideout. A butterfly arrives and disturbs Red, who is taking a rest on his folding seat, and Bomb, who is busy eating ice cream. The Blues are also around, but the butterfly doesn't disturb them. The ground suddenly shakes with the appearance of El Porkador (Fat Pig). He sings while the Minion Pigs and Corporal Pig brought him with the use of a wheelbarrow because he was unable to walk to the hideout to get the eggs on his own. Corporal Pig gives commands to the Minion Pigs and El Porkador. El Porkador then makes a loud singing cry making a slight ground shake to even The Eggs!
Red gets angry and rushes straight to the Slingshot to launch and hit El Porkador. He hits him but gets stuck to him because of El Porkador's fluffy and soft body, making El Porkador laugh. Afterwards, he sings again, launching Red back to his hideout, knocking Red out.
The Blues then rush to attack. Instead of using the Slingshot, they ran towards El Porkador but not before leaving their shades and caps. El Porkador pulls them by sniffing a large potion of air using his big nose. After he sniffs them, he blows them back to their hideout with his nose. Bomb sees that The Blues would hit the ground hard so he uses himself as a cushion to soften the impact.
Bomb gets angry uses the Slingshot to launch and blow up El Porkador. He lits his fuse just as he is about to reach El Porkador, but El Porkador blocks his attack with a racket, which causes Bomb's explosion to backfire and occur on the ground, trapping him on the ground in the process.
El Porkador and the pigs begin to approach the eggs, knocking down the slingshot out of their way, while Red and The Blues stand behind the eggs in a last attempt to protect them. El Porkador then suddenly bumps into Terence, the Big Brother Bird. The pigs don't notice him arriving. When the pigs see him, Corporal Pig orders to push the wheelbarrow (where El Porkador sat) on Terence to hit him and pass over him, but Terence is too strong. They push the cart three times but get pushed back by Terence. Terence gets angry and uses his weight to smash the ground. The resulting ground crack extends to the wheelbarrow's wheels, making El Porkador imbalanced. As a result, he falls off and rolls down a cliff. The pigs try to ran, but are hit by him. El Porkador rolls, while continuously singing in panic, towards Pig City, destroying parts of it. He sings even louder when he hits King Pig's Palace.
As the credits roll, El Porkador coughs, sings in sorrow and cries because his plan failed.

Errors[]
- There is a change under the Slingshot when Red and Bomb extends the elastic band of it.
- When Red and the blues make a last attempt to protect the eggs, they look very beat up. When they stand behind Terence, however, they do not look beat up anymore.
- In the ending scene, Pig City is mirrored backwards.
