Plot[]
The episode begins with Corporal Pig and his assistants, two Minion Pigs, stealing The Eggs again. This time, they are climbing up the cliff to the top where the Eggs are held. To steal them, Corporal Pig tries to use a net to catch the eggs but they are out of reach.
One of the minion pigs get an idea; vault up onto the structure to steal the eggs using a long pole. He tries to do it near the structure but accidentally hits Corporal Pig with the pole, who angrily orders him to do it further away. Once he does so, he charges at the structure and vaults up to get the eggs. However, they were still out of reach. Thinking that it might been just the first minion pig's fault and the fact that the second minion pig was laughing at the failed attempt, Corporal Pig orders him to vault instead. However, he also fails and the structure was soon moving from the double impact. It turns up to face the pigs, revealing to be Terence waking up from his sleep. Corporal Pig realizes he and his assistants are in real trouble if Terence wakes up. In desperation, he sings a lullaby to put him back to sleep.
Corporal Pig then uses a second plan; shooting plungers to drag down the eggs. The first minion pig misfired, causing Corporal Pig to get mad at him and the second minion pig tries to remove the plunger, just for it to fail. The attempt to remove it awakens Terence again, forcing Corporal Pig to sing the lullaby again, but faster.
Afterwards, Corporal Pig takes the plunger gun and proceeds to aim accurately at the eggs but misses, causing the minion pigs to laugh at his failure. Enraged, he proceeds to fire many plungers which all fires onto Terence, but still misses, making the minion pigs laugh even more. Suddenly, he saw what he could do with the plungers; use them as a stairway for the eggs.
As Corporal Pig climbs the plunger stairway and is about to steal the eggs, Terence awakens and starts to roll down the cliff edge. This results in Corporal Pig avoiding all the stuck plungers in his failed attempt to get off Terence and holding onto the eggs, all the while singing a panicky lullaby to get Terence to sleep. When they reach the edge, the two minion pigs quickly block Terence from rolling off the cliff to ensure that Corporal Pig and the eggs don't end up falling. Despite that, Corporal Pig still ends up tripping and nearly falling off the cliff but saves himself by grabbing Terence's tail feathers with his teeth. The grabbing action awakens Terence fully. Corporal Pig sings an anguished but proper lullaby in the process of making Terence rock back-and-forth and crushing the minion pigs for each motion. As he goes back to sleep, Terence opens his eyes for the last time and winks at the viewers, letting them know he was aware the whole time.
As the credits roll, Corporal Pig continues to sing a lullaby to Terence while he was crying.
