Fionna and Cake Return is three of three pilot episodes of Fionna and Cake Return (series).

Synopsis[]

Prince Gumball is captured by the Ice Queen, and it's now up to Fionna and Cake to save him.

Plot[]

Fionna is sleeping under a tree in a sleeping bag when she wakes up and asks Cake what she's doing. Cake tells Fionna she is meditating to connect her mind to the internet. Then she shows Fionna a dance he "downloaded." Just then, Prince Gumball's rainicorn, Lord Monochromicorn, flies by crying. Cake grows and the two follow Rainicorn. Fionna tells him a joke to cheer him up, but it turns into a failure and he just keeps on crying.

They follow him into the Ice Kingdom where Ice Queen starts shooting at Lord Monochromicorn with frozen lightning bolts. Fionna says that Ice Queen is an oxymoron and Cake shrinks. Cake sees that Ice Queen has trapped Prince Gumball. After Fionna puts on a turtle-neck sweater, she asks Cake if she wants her booties and gives them to her. Fionna and Cake yell "Adventure Time!," then jump, slide onto the ice and surf on Penguins. They land into the ice, but they spotted an Iceclops. After they throw snowballs at it, they spot a Snow Golem and they throw snowballs at it as well. Then they see a Fire Elemental who asks for directions to the sun. Fionna gives the directions, then throws a snowball at the Elemental. This makes him upset so he asks how old they are. Fionna says that she's twelve and that Cake is twenty-eight.

They then hear an evil laugh and they look up to see Ice Queen. Cake stretches his legs to boost Fionna up to Ice Queen. Fionna tells her to stop it and Ice Queen tells her to stop meddling and that Fionna and her cat can't harm him. Fionna says that Cake is not her cat but her friend, and then kicks Ice Queen into her house and cave, where there was a drum set and a pair of underwear. They kung fu fight as Cake flirts with Monochromicorn. Fionna asks Ice Queen why she's always stealing dudes. Ice Queen replies that she's going to make one marry her. Fionna says that the queen's idea is stupid, and Ice Queen says Fionna's hat is stupid. Fionna gets mad and kicks her in the face as he screams the highly known words: "My hat is AWESOME!!!." Then she realizes that Cake is not helping him, so she looks out to see him talking to the Monochromicorn.

Ice Queen uses her frozen lightning bolts to freeze Fionna in a block of ice. Then, her mind gets transported back in time and onto Mars, where she meets Mary Lincoln. Lincoln tells Fionna that she needs to believe in herself. Fionna screams "NEVER!!!" as her mind is transported back to the present and breaks out of the ice block. She sees Ice Queen fly away with Prince Gumball who yells for them to help him. Monochromicorn, Fionna, and Cake chase after Ice Queen. Fionna jumps and grabs the prince as they land on Monochromicorn. Then Cake knocks the crown off of Ice Queen's head and Ice Queen falls to the ground. Cake walks away on her outstretched legs.

Fionna and the prince land as Fionna tells him that he is free. The prince kisses and thanks Fionna. Cake comes and asks what is going on and Fionna says nothing is. Embarrassed, Fionna drags Cake away and says that they have stuff to do. Cake denies it and says that they have nowhere to go. Fionna laughs and says that "adventure awaits."Cake says that she doesn't see an adventure going on anywhere and that they should just sit there and talk about their feelings. Fionna randomly points at three Ninjas stealing an Old Lady's diamonds. She says bye to the prince and the prince bids farewell. Fionna and Cake say it's "Adventure Time" again and they run off.
