Plot[]
The episode starts with Mr. Cat peacefully reading a newspaper in his lawn chair. Olaf comes by with Olga and demands that Mr. Cat drop to his knees before his "emperor" and "empress". Mr. Cat ignores him and simply kicks him away, sending him flying. Olaf yells about wanting to send Mr. Cat to the gulag. Kaeloo scolds Mr. Cat saying that he shouldn't kick auks. Olaf returns to the scene and angrily clarifies that he is an emperor penguin, not an auk. Olaf leans into Olga, and "hears" her saying that he should decapitate Mr. Cat. The latter offers him a chainsaw to do it with, but when Olaf grabs the chainsaw, the blade hits the ground and it drags him away.
Kaeloo says that she believes that beneath his imposing exterior, Olaf is really a timid person, but he always refuses to play with the others so they can't get to know him better. Mr. Cat suggests stealing Olga so Olaf will have to play with them to get her back. Kaeloo thinks that this may be a little too extreme, but she changes her mind when Olaf, still dragged by the chainsaw, yells that he will exterminate both of them.
That night, Olaf opens the door to Serguei and puts Olga inside, unaware that Kaeloo is watching him from a tree on top of a nearby hill, dressed as a gentleman thief. Olaf then leaves.
Stumpy, wearing a pair of underwear over his head which covers his eyes and a pair of sunglasses, emerges from a bush next to the tree where Kaeloo is and starts yelling, but Kaeloo tells him to be quiet and act like a spy. She effortlessly leaps through the air and reaches Serguei. Stumpy, who can't see because of the underwear on his head, trips over a rock and falls down the hill. He crashes into numerous objects and finally into Serguei's back. Olga slides out into Kaeloo's hands, and Kaeloo commends Stumpy, thinking he did it on purpose. Just as they leave, Olaf shows up to call Olga to bed, but he finds her missing and starts crying and screaming.
The next morning, Olaf is still searching for Olga and crying. Mr. Cat emerges from a cat flap, annoyed by the noise. Olaf starts lamenting about how Olga left him, her husband, and Mr. Cat incredulously asks if Olaf is married to an ice cube. Olaf explains what a wonderful person Olga is, and Mr. Cat continuously makes sarcastic remarks to the audience.
Olaf sees Quack-Quack putting some of his yogurt inside Serguei, and he yells at him not to put yogurt into Serguei. Mr. Cat notices a letter stuck to Serguei with a fridge magnet, from Olga's kidnappers. The letter is signed by the "gentlemen thieves" (written phonetically as if the writer had a lisp), and a cross (suggesting that the second writer could not spell their own name). Quack-Quack continues to put yogurt inside Serguei, to Olaf's frustration, and he yells at him again.
Mr. Cat realizes, from his conversation with Kaeloo the previous day and from the way the note is signed, that Kaeloo and Stumpy were the ones who stole Olga. He tells Olaf that he will help him find Olga. Olaf says that if he does, he will make him a dignitary when he becomes emperor, but Mr. Cat says he just wants money, to which Olaf agrees. Olaf sees Quack-Quack putting more yogurt into Serguei and asks Mr. Cat if Quack-Quack is always like that, to which the latter responds that he is.
Mr. Cat dresses as a police officer and he, Quack-Quack and Olaf drive off in a police car to search for Kaeloo and Stumpy. Kaeloo looks out of the door and sees them coming, and she excitedly tells Stumpy that Olaf is coming to play with them. Mr. Cat and Quack-Quack get out of the car and decide to leave Olaf inside, to his annoyance. Stumpy panics, but Kaeloo tells him to stay calm; gentleman thieves never lose their calm. Mr. Cat bangs on the door, and Stumpy grabs Olga and hides her behind his back.
Mr. Cat kicks the door open and barges in with Quack-Quack. Kaeloo greets them with a creepy expression on her face. Mr. Cat sits on the couch and informs Kaeloo that Olaf's wife has disappeared. Kaeloo asks how she and Stumpy could possibly be the culprits, seeing as they have an alibi and excuse letters from their parents. She then asks Stumpy to get Mr. Cat and Quack-Quack some drinks, and Stumpy asks if he should put ice cubes in them or not. Seeing the expression on Mr. Cat's face after he says this, he quickly slips out the door under the pretext of going to the bathroom. Mr. Cat calls Quack-Quack to follow him.
Meanwhile, Olaf is trying to open the car door when he sees Stumpy come out of the door holding Olga. The two stare at each other awkwardly for a few minutes before Stumpy runs away. Olaf tries harder to open the car door, which still won't open. Everyone else walks out of the room and Kaeloo greets Olaf without doing anything to help him. Olaf continues to try to open the door, now screaming about sending everyone to the gulag, but it doesn't work.
Stumpy starts digging a deep hole to bury "the evidence", but everyone else walks up to the hole and sees him. Olaf keeps trying to open the door, and Serguei finally opens it for him from the outside. Olaf awkwardly realizes that the door opens outwards, not inwards. Stumpy tries to tell Mr. Cat that aliens were responsible for the kidnapping when suddenly, Olaf and Serguei show up.
Olaf orders Serguei to attack the main four. Serguei very nearly hits Mr. Cat, but the latter is able to jump out of the way. Kaeloo tries to tell Olaf that this isn't necessary and that it was just a game, but he says that people shouldn't play games with Olga. He then makes Serguei attack Kaeloo, and she is sent flying into the air. Mr. Cat and Stumpy stare in shock for a few minutes before saying that Olaf must be "new around here" if he dares to do something like that.
Kaeloo lands on the ground unharmed, transforms out of anger, and runs towards Olaf, surprising him. It looks like Bad Kaeloo is about to punch him, but instead Bad Kaeloo lightly touches him and turns it into a game of tag. Olaf chases Bad Kaeloo around while the others stare in confusion. Stumpy asks Quack-Quack and Mr. Cat if they want to hear a joke, but the joke he says is lame and they walk off, annoyed.
