In every episode, Kelly, Chica, Mr. C and Mrs. C tend to what the customer at the Costume Coop that episode needs. Things often go wrong in this part due to Chica, so Kelly tries to teach Chica the lesson of the episode. Then, the cuckoo clock (which is shaped like Mr. C,) goes off and Kelly tells Chica that the coop is closing, but they decided to have more fun. Afterward, Mr. and Mrs. C lock up the Coop while singing a song. After, two eggs with legs hop out of the cuckoo clock and Kelly, Chica, Stitches, and Bunji magically transform into cartoon characters. Kelly then says "Time to dress up and play!" and the cartoon segment is shown, demonstrating the lesson that Chica learned. After the cartoon, Chica and Kelly immediately pack up and leave the Coop.
