OW: The gang is in the toy box, trying new plans to get played with. Every one of their plans fails miserably.
The Call: Andy is going to college and he puts Woody in his box for college. He puts the rest of the toys in a bag for storage, but they think they are getting thrown away. So they decide to put themselves in a box that is being donated to Sunnyside. Woody is trying to tell them that they were being put in storage but they don’t believe him.
Refusal of the Call: Woody refuses to go with them to Sunnyside but then Andy’s mom closes the car door and starts the car. So he really doesn’t have a choice and is forced to go with them. Woody also refuses to stay once at the day care.
The Mentor: The mentor they meet is the Chatter Phone. He is the one that helps them to escape the day care. He has been in there the longest and knows all the ropes and guidelines they need to follow.
Crossing the Threshold: Woody decides to return to Sunnyside to save his friends. He found out that it is not a good place and that they were all in trouble. "How did you escape Sunnyside?" "Well you know, it wasn't easy-wait, what do you mean escaped?" said Woody. Then Chuckles tells the story.
Tests, Allies, Enemies: First we have Lots-O-Huggin' Bear. This is one bad guy. He is very deceitful. He appears to be a friendly bear that just loves huggin'. We find out that this is not true. He is the main enemy that has taken over Sunnyside. Next we have Big Baby. Big Baby is Lots-O's assistant. He is faithful to him until the end. Next we have Ken. Oh Ken. What to do with this one... He is also working for Lots-O. He seems like a brain-dead person.
Ken: Okay, now you start.
Barbie: I...
Ken: Love...
Barbie You! Oh!
Ken: See? That time I said "love"! Okay, now me first.
Ken: I...
Barbie: Love...
Ken: You! You see what I mean? It changes everytime!
Barbie: You are so smart!
We also have allies. There is Buttercup, Trixie, Chuckles, and Mr. Pricklepants. They are the friends from Bonnie's room. Chuckles tells Woody how evil Lots-O is. We also have Spanish Buzz. He is... one of a kind, but a friend no doubt.
Approach to the Inmost Cave: This is where Woody meets up with the gang at Sunnyside and tells them they are getting out. The make the plan of a lifetime. Woody tells them all the ins and outs of, well how to get out!
Chatter Phone: Well... if you're gonna get out, first things you're gonna get through is the doors. Locked every night, inside and out, keys are left on a hook in the office.
Woody: Got it. What else?
Woody: Got it. What else?
Chatter: Lotso has trucks patrolling all night long. Hallway, lobby, playground...
Woody: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but what about the wall?
Woody: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but what about the wall?
Chatter: Eight feet high; cinder block; No way through it. You go over, or under.
Woody: That's it? Id doesn't seem so bad.
Woody: That's it? Id doesn't seem so bad.
Chatter: It's not. Your REAL problem's the monkey. The Monkey's the eye in the sky. He sees everything... classrooms, hallways, even the playground. You can unlock doors, sneak past guards, climb the wall, but if you don't take out that monkey you ain't going nowhere. You want to get out of here... GET RID OF THAT MONKEY!
Pretty intense stuff.
Pretty intense stuff.
The Ordeal: Now to carry out the plan. It is a hard night for all the toys, capturing Buzz, getting the key, getting rid of the monkey, getting past Lots-O, and finally getting to the trash can which then leads to the dump. They get stuck in the incinerator and Lots-O abandons them all to burn. The three aliens save all the gang with the claw.
The Reward: Their freedom and all of them are together.
The Road Back: Woody and the gang drive a trash truck back to their home, but they have to hurry before Andy leaves for college to get Woody in that box. They make it just in time.
The Resurrection: Woody realizes that he can't go to college with Andy and that his friends all deserve a better place to live rather than the attic. So he donates them all to Bonnie and Woody joins them. Andy has a hard time letting go, especially of Woody, but he does. He gives them all away to Bonnie. The gang lives happily ever after. The End!
