Happy Tree Friends is an animated series created and developed by Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro, and Warren Graff for Mondo Media. A total of six seasons of the series have been released: five seasons on the internet, and one season on television.
In 1999, the crew began the series with a pilot episode, named "Banjo Frenzy", which featured a blue dinosaur, a sky blue squirrel, a yellow rabbit, and a purple beaver. The first official episode was named "Spin Fun Knowin' Ya!", which aired on Christmas Eve of that same year, and featured later versions of the dinosaur, rabbit, squirrel, and beaver, and – from that point on – the crew began introducing new characters to the show. It quickly became an internet phenomenon featuring millions of visits per episode. In 2006, the Happy Tree Friends television series aired on G4 in the United States. It also aired on G4 and Razer in Canada in 2007.
A prequel spin-off called Ka-Pow! debuted in September 2008. In 2010, after airing fifteen episodes for the third web season, a hiatus began, in which there were only Break shorts airing with a subliminal message at the end of each, reading "Happy Tree Friends is dead!". This situation concerned many fans because they thought that the series were going to end soon. The writers confirmed that they were playing a joke on the fact that the characters die a lot, making a pun phrase with the word "dead". The hiatus ended on December 8, 2011, allowing the series to return once again with the fifteenth episode of the third season, named "Clause for Concern".
In addition to the show's five seasons and a spin-off, there have been some special episodes and shorts. These include eleven "Smoochies", ten "Kringles", thirteen "Break" shorts, five "Love Bites", and sixteen other irregular episodes that are unindexed. The "Smoochie" shorts involve three different items being dropped next to a main character, only for them to be killed in three different ways, each regarding the item. These have been adapted into the Happy Tree Friends website where one can choose an item to drop.[1] The "Kringle" shorts are Christmas-themed shorts that feature the main characters doing various Christmas-related tasks, only to be killed in various ways.[2] The "Love Bites" were Valentine's Day-themed shorts, that went with the basic structure of a Happy Tree Friends episode. The "Break" shorts were produced in 2008, when no new episodes were produced until the following year. A new break short debuted in 2009.

He answers the door to find Giggles in a Girl Scout outfit selling cookies. A gust of wind blows Lumpy's towel off his body, exposing his private area to Giggles. Lumpy doesn't notice this as he ponders whether or not to buy some cookies, but Giggles catches a disturbing eyeful of his privates and shrieks in complete shock, bringing Lumpy back to reality.

Splendid looks at the bear trap clamping on his right arm and attempts to open it so he can get it off of him. Unfortunately, the bear trap slips from his hands and it clamps down on his arm, causing his arm to fall off, and a large quantity of blood to pour out. This makes Splendid gasp in sheer shock, and Lumpy to scream in pain. Acting quickly, he ties the severed arm like a balloon knot to stop the blood from spilling out, saving and calming Lumpy down.

While bowling, Handy (somehow) manages to knock down nine pins, leaving one pin standing which does not seem to satisfy him. He angrily walks away as Sniffles steps up for his turn. Sniffles has difficulty lifting his ball, so he lifts it by sucking it onto his nose.

When he's out of soda, he looks closely at the neck of the bottle, only to have Sniffles' head hit the back of his head. Handy jerks back his head in anguish as the bottle is now lodged into one of his eye sockets. Inside the bottle, Handy's eye rattles around. His nubs try in vain to remove the bottle from his head, but unfortunately, all he can do is scream in pain. Moral: "Laughter is the best medicine!" | ||||||
25 | 25 | "Snow What? That's What!" | Rhode Montijo | Mark Fiorenza, Warren Graff, Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro & Paul Allan | April 7, 2001 | |
Giggles is building a snowman on a snowy day when suddenly, she gets hit on the back of the head by a snowball. She turns around to find Cro-Marmot standing next to her with a stack of snowballs at his side. Giggles says hello to him and decides to play along. She makes a snowball and throws it at Cro-Marmot. Unfortunately, the amount of pressure causes Cro-Marmot to slide down a nearby cliff. Realizing this, Giggles screams in horror and runs down to stop him. Down the cliff, Petunia can be seen making a snow angel, when suddenly, Cro-Marmot slides by and runs over her. This causes Petunia's lower body to rip off (which causes several of her organs to rip off as well), leaving only her upper body intact. Giggles then comes by and quickly runs over her remains. Further down the slope, Lumpy can be seen relaxing on a hammock, apparently getting his holidays mixed up when he's wearing beach attire. Cro-Marmot slides by, and causes his hammock to wrap around him tightly, squeezing out a large quantity of blood. When Giggles passes by, she unravels the hammock and when it opens, a mangled-up Lumpy begins to groan in pain. Giggles manages to catch up with Cro-Marmot and screams in horror when she realizes that Cro-Marmot is heading straight towards a tree. Running at full speed, she moves right in front of Cro-Marmot just before hitting the tree. Giggles gives a big sigh of relief, and laughs it off when suddenly, some snow falls on top of her nose. She looks up to find icicles about to melt off. Giggles screams, as two average-sized icicles impale her eyes, and a third, rather large icicle crushes her entire forehead. As she still stands, Cro-Marmot throws one last snowball at her. Moral: "Never eat the last cookie!" | ||||||
26 | 26 | "This Is Your Knife" | Rhode Montijo | Mark Fiorenza, Warren Graff, Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro & Paul Allan | April 14, 2001 | |
On a clear, starlit night in the middle of the woods, Cuddles, Giggles, and Flaky are sitting around a campfire, apparently on a camping trip. Cuddles watches the fire, Giggles eats a sandwich, and Flaky roasts marshmallows on a stick. Moments later, Flippy walks by, and the gang greets him. Cuddles then encourages Flippy to take a seat and enjoy the fire. However, the moment Flippy sits down and begins to warm his hands with the fire, some sparks fly out, and nearly hit Flippy. Flippy stares into the fire, and since this bright energy reminds Flippy of the war, Flippy emerges into his evil side, Fliqpy. Seeing Flippy flip out, Cuddles laughs nervously and says hello to Fliqpy again in hopes that he will turn back into Flippy. Unfortunately, Flippy's evil side still remains, Fliqpy jumps through the campfire and slashes Cuddles' face away with a rock, knocking out two of his teeth as well as one of his eyes. Giggles, who is still eating her sandwich, gets Cuddles' blood splattered all over her body, making her scream in shock. As Cuddles sits on the ground, dead, Fliqpy uses his Bowie knife to cut a large hole on Cuddles' stomach and pulls out Cuddles' intestines. Fliqpy then uses these intestines to snag Giggles by her neck, and he continuously yanks on the intestines up to the point where Giggles gets strangled to death. Flaky, having witnessed Cuddles and Giggles' deaths, lets out a shriek of panic and takes cover in her sleeping bag. As Flaky hugs her knees in fear inside her sleeping bag, she notices that she is getting lifted into the air. Outside, it turns out that Fliqpy is raising Flaky into the air. Fliqpy lets out an evil chuckle and tosses Flaky's bag into the campfire. Flaky begins to scream loudly as the fire slowly burns her body. Fliqpy then begins to laugh evilly, just before bringing out some marshmallows on a stick, and holding it over the fire, not caring about Flaky's screams of pain. Moral: "Plant a tree!" | ||||||
27 | 27 | "Happy Trails" (Part 1) | Rhode Montijo | Mark Fiorenza, Warren Graff, Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro & Paul Allan | October 20, 2001 | |
The characters are riding in a school bus, and having a lot of fun. Petunia needs to use the bathroom and asks the driver, Lumpy, to stop the bus. Lumpy orders her to sit back down. While doing so, the bus runs over a bump in the road. A window closes while Cuddles is leaning out of it, slicing Cuddles in half. The bus hits another bump just as Mime tosses a peanut up into his mouth, causing him to choke. Mime fails to get a napping Sniffles' attention, so he tries waving to Lumpy for help. Not noticing that Mime is choking, Lumpy gets up from the driver's seat while the bus is still in motion and reprimands Mime for causing a disturbance. As Mime suffocates, Petunia warns Lumpy that the bus is headed for a cliff. Lumpy and Petunia embrace each other in fear as Petunia urinates herself all over the floor in fright. The bus runs over the Cursed Idol, which causes Petunia to lose her balance and fall on the gear lever of the bus, impaling herself. Lumpy tries to shift gears, but only causes Petunia more injury. As Lumpy is unable to stop or even slow the bus, it flies off the cliff, hitting two birds, flinging Toothy out the window, and leaving the rest of the characters' fates ambiguous. Moral: "Keep your promises!" |

28 | 1 | "Happy Trails" (Part 2: Jumping The Shark) | Rhode Montijo | Mark Fiorenza, Warren Graff, Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro & Paul Allan | September 1, 2002 | |
After the events of the previous episode, the survivors are stranded on a deserted island. The bus is in shambles, the ocean is shark-infested, and many have died in the accident. Flippy creates small graves for those who died in the crash, while the others look on mournfully. The next day, Giggles happily catches a fish in the ocean for food, using a long pointed stick as a makeshift spear. A jellyfish swims by and zaps her left foot, causing her to shriek in pain and curiously observe the bump on her foot. Later that day; during the night, Giggles is suffering from extreme chills, wrapped in a blanket, and her stung foot is incredibly swollen before she dies from the jellyfish sting. The scene cuts to Flippy sadly pounding down another grave with Giggles' bow tied around it, indicating that she died of hypothermia. When Flippy is done pounding in Giggles' grave, Lifty and Shifty reveal they have an inflatable raft the group can escape on. As the group sails away from the island as Lifty and Shifty paddle with their hands, everyone is relieved and in good spirits. Unfortunately, as Flaky sits down, her quills pop the raft, causing the raft to start sinking as a shark swims along. The group hurriedly swims back to the island, but Lifty and Shifty are taken and eaten by the shark. As everybody catches their breath, Flaky looks on nervously at her fellow members, Flippy is evilly angry at her for popping their only ride home. As the scene changes to night, Flippy and Lumpy is evilly angry as he pounds Flaky's grave into the sand, while the others watch in the background with evil expressions, implying that at least one of them Hated Flaky. The next day, the school bus and the tree on the island are gone and in their place stands a rocket ship made up of the bus parts. The group boards their creation with makeshift helmets made of coconuts, and they lift off, Eventually, the rocket stops moving upwards. They throw several weighty objects out of the rocket, one of which being Lumpy, and the rocket continues upwards. Miserably, now the rocket moves too fast and it is headed towards the sun. Sniffles' brain explodes as they get closer to the sun, while Handy and Flippy are suffering from second and/or third-degree burns. At that time Lumpy is on Earth and makes the best of his situation by relaxing in a chair and holding his sock over a fire. A "puff!" suddenly appears in the sun, indicating that the rocket ship made contact with the sun, without Lumpy even noticing. As the episode ends, Lumpy begins applying sunscreen to his arm. Moral: "Give but never give up!" | ||||||
29 | 2 | "Eye Candy" | Rhode Montijo | Warren Graff, Rhode Montijo & Kenn Navarro | September 8, 2002 | |
Toothy is cheerfully running through the forest, holding a large yellow lollipop in front of him. His happiness ends soon as he trips over a log, causing the lollipop to get lodged in his eye socket. Screaming, he pulls on the lollipop's stick, causing his eye and the optic nerve, still connected to his head, to fly out of his eye socket and get tangled around a tree branch. Toothy tries pulling on his optic nerve but fails to get his eyeball down from the branch. Whining and wailing in pain, he begins climbing the tree. When he reaches the branch his eyeball is resting on, we get a view of how difficult it is for Toothy to see with both of his eyes pointed in different directions. Toothy reaches for his eye, but unfortunately, a woodpecker lands on the branch and starts pecking his eyeball. Recoiling from the pain, Toothy loses his balance and falls off the tree, which is revealed to have been located on the edge of a cliff, causing Toothy to dangle from the branch of a tree off a cliff from only his optic nerve (which acts as a bungee cord). Toothy tries climbing back up his optic nerve, but he loses his grip and slides down again. Ultimately, Toothy's brain is pulled out from his eye socket, followed by his other eye as Toothy falls to the ground a few feet below him. Before the episode ends, the Woodpecker defecates on Toothy's head. Moral: "Keep your eye on the prize!" | ||||||
30 | 3 | "Rink Hijinks" | Rhode Montijo | Mark Fiorenza, Warren Graff, Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro, Paul Allan & Jessica Teach | September 15, 2002 | |
Flaky enters a roller skating rink, but she seems to have some trouble with her footing. Flaky nearly falls over, and she hugs the wall for safety. But when someone quickly skates past Flaky, she gets filled with determination and lets go of the wall. Flaky begins to get the hang of it, but not for long, as Disco Bear skates in and carelessly pushes Flaky aside. Elsewhere in the rink, Lumpy is seen cleaning the rink with a floor buffer in his underwear. Suddenly, Flaky comes by, and she falls under Lumpy's floor buffer. As Flaky gets sucked in, her body begins rubbing against the floor at a fast speed that kills her, and soon her quills begin to fly all over the place. As Disco Bear skates along, Flaky's quills suddenly come in and puncture Disco Bear all over his face and torso, which kills him. Meanwhile, Lumpy can no longer contain the malfunctioning buffer, and the brushes get cemented to the floor. Because of this, Lumpy is now getting twirled all over the place just before he gets flung away. At the arcade of the rink, Cub can be seen playing at a claw machine. Suddenly, Lumpy comes in and his body crashes through the machine. As a dazed Lumpy regains consciousness, he notices the claw machine's hook hovering over his body. It comes down, punctures his chest, and pulls out his heart. As Lumpy screams at the loss of his heart, he suddenly passes out and dies. Lumpy's heart falls into the prize slot, and Cub immediately grabs it. At first, Cub seems confused by his "prize," but once it throbs, Cub gets fascinated and hugs it. Moral: "What goes around comes around!" | ||||||
31 | 4 | "Flippin' Burgers" | Rhode Montijo | Warren Graff, Rhode Montijo & Kenn Navarro | September 22, 2002 | |
At a small burger joint in the middle of the woods, the Happy Tree Friends enjoy lunch. Petunia is hard at work cooking the burgers, while Cuddles and Giggles are eating together. Cuddles tries to squirt some ketchup on their fries, but he accidentally squirts it on Giggles. At just that moment, a happy and hungry Flippy opens the door. He sees Giggles covered in ketchup and suddenly goes into a trance. Though Cuddles and Giggles laugh about the incident, Flippy believes that she has been injured, causing him to react and as a result, he sees Giggles dead with blood all around her in the background as Flippy flips out and shows his scary, evil face at the audience, now turned into Fliqpy. Fliqpy jumps over to their table and flips it over, causing fries to fly everywhere. Cuddles turns his attention to Fliqpy, but he doesn't seem too worried as he continues sipping on his drink through a straw. Fliqpy grabs Cuddles' straw and uses it to stab him in the heart. Blood starts pouring out of the straw and, in a panic, Cuddles drinks his blood through the straw to get the blood back into his body, but this doesn't work, and he soon dies. Giggles screams and looks around the room, having lost sight of Fliqpy. He emerges above her and shoves a ketchup bottle in one of her ears and a mustard bottle in the other. He squeezes both bottles as hard as he can, causing ketchup and mustard to pour out of her nose, killing her. Next, Fliqpy goes behind the grill where Petunia is standing. He grabs her by the back of the head with her screaming and shoves her face down on the burger grill, causing her to scream in anguish. Laughing, he pulls her head up and we see that the grease has melted her face onto the grill, exposing the nerves of her face. As Petunia is still screaming, Fliqpy shoves her face back onto the grill, burning the exposing nerves of her face with her screaming. Outside the building, Petunia is heard screaming but stops (indicating that she had died). Pop and Cub get ready to enter. Before they can open the door, however, the front of the building explodes, crushing the two beneath the door. Fliqpy lands on the ground, just before the fries. Seeing a pool of Cuddles' blood, Fliqpy grabs a fry and dips it in the blood, mistaking it for ketchup. Fliqpy eats the fry and sighs contently upon tasting the blood. Moral: "You are what you eat!" | ||||||
32 | 5 | "Get Whale Soon" | Rhode Montijo | Warren Graff, Rhode Montijo & Kenn Navarro | September 29, 2002 | |
Russell happily sits in his boat, humming and holding a harpoon. As he looks through his telescope, he realizes he's floating in the open mouth of a giant whale. Having no time to react, Russell gets eaten, plunging him into darkness. Inside the whale with darkness surrounding him, Russell lights a match to light up his surroundings. He finds a road-raged Lumpy sitting in his car and honking his horn, unaware that he is in a whale's stomach. Lumpy turns on his car's headlights and they both see that they have no way out. Russell, however, gets an idea. They bundle some sticks together and Russell pulls out a box of matches. Looking inside, they see there's only one match left. After several unsuccessful attempts, Russell manages to light the match, only for Lumpy to sneeze it out, angering Russell. Next, Lumpy lifts Russell up to the whale's uvula. Russell stabs it and pulls on it with his hook, making the two laugh. This only succeeds in making the whale vomit all over them. Disheartened, Russell and Lumpy find new hope when they look up and see the whale's blowhole. Russell throws his harpoon towards the blowhole, but unfortunately, he misses and the falling object accidentally pierces Lumpy's head, killing him. Russell starts to go insane and begins using his hook to slash the inside of the whale's stomach. The whale, feeling the pain of Russell's hook, fires Russell out of its blowhole. At first, Russell is still laughing and slashing around like a maniac while in mid-air, but he rejoices upon learning that he's free. Sadly, Russell falls from the sky and his head gets impaled on the mast of a nearby ship. The whale then comes and swallows the ship to add insult to injury. Moral: "Don't bite off more than you can chew!" | ||||||
33 | 6 | "Snip Snip Hooray!" | Rhode Montijo | Warren Graff, Rhode Montijo & Kenn Navarro | October 6, 2002 | |
Cub happily sits in his highchair as Pop brings in a tray containing a comb, a pair of scissors, and an electric shaver. Cub sees the shiny scissors and tries to reach for them. Pop slaps his hand away, forbidding him to touch them. Pop removes Cub's beanie to reveal that Cub has a full head of long, flowing hair. Pop begins cutting Cub's hair with the scissors, but stops when he accidentally cuts Cub's right ear off. Cub begins to scream and cry in pain and Pop starts panicking as blood spurts out of Cub's wound. The scene fades to black. The scene then fades back to Cub happily licking a lollipop while wearing bandages over the right side of his head. Pop proudly looks at Cub and then looks for the electric shaver, which he has apparently misplaced. He hears a buzzing sound and looks up to see a laughing Cub, who now has a flap of skin detached from his forehead, holding the shaver, while Cub appears not to care about his loss. A panicked Pop rushes over and grabs the shaver, quickly turning it off. Pop then cautiously combs and pushes down on the loose flap of skin on Cub's head without any cries or protests from the child. Satisfied, Pop tries to turn the shaver back on, but to no avail. He sees that the shaver has become unplugged, so, setting the shaver down next to Cub, he goes to plug it back in. Cub starts playing with the shaver, and puts it in his mouth to suck on it. Pop plugs the shaver back in, and it starts tearing the inside of Cub's mouth, throat, and eventually his esophagus to pieces. Cub falls face down on his highchair deadly, while an oblivious Pop searches for his scissors. Locating them, Pop cuts a lock of Cub's hair, brushes some loose hair from his head, and places Cub's beanie back on his son's head, still unaware that his son is dead. Moral: "Don't run with scissors!" | ||||||
34 | 7 | "Eyes Cold Lemonade" | Rhode Montijo | Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro, Jeff Biancalana & David Winn | October 13, 2002 | |
Giggles and Petunia happily sit at their lemonade stand, awaiting customers. Petunia sighs contentedly, and Giggles pours her some lemonade. Petunia gladly drinks it. Giggles notices that they are out of lemonade, so she grabs a knife and a lemon so she could make some more. She gets ready to cut into the lemon, but she makes sure to move her finger to avoid accidentally cutting herself. After slicing the lemon in half, Giggles notices that a nail from the lemonade stand's sign has fallen off. She looks up to see that part of the sign has become detached from the stand. The sign swoops down in front of her, slicing her face off. Giggles screams in pain, causing Petunia to spit out her lemonade all over Giggles' face in shock. The citric acid from the lemonade burns the inside of Giggles' face, and she screams in pain, again. Later on, we see that Petunia has reset the sign, only now with far more nails than before and in a sloppy manner. Satisfied with her work, Petunia starts squeezing lemons again. Meanwhile, Giggles, who has bandages wrapped around most of her face, including both of her eyes, ignores her injury and continues to work. She blindly reaches for a lemon and manages to slice it in half. Another nail falls from the sign, only now from the other side. The sign begins sliding downwards towards Petunia. Petunia notices this, but unfortunately for her, not fast enough. The sign crushes her head against the side of the lemonade stand, killing her. One of Petunia's eyeballs comes loose from her head and rolls over to Giggles. Giggles picks up the eye, thinking that it is a lemon, and slowly cuts it in half. She then juices the fluid out of the eye and pours the liquid into a glass. Giggles takes a sip and obviously does not like the taste. She adds some sugar to the concoction, drops some ice cubes in, and places a slice of Petunia's eye on the rim of the glass. Moral: "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade!" | ||||||
35 | 8 | "Milkin' It" | Rhode Montijo | Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro, Jeff Biancalana, David Winn & Alan Lau | October 20, 2002 | |
Lifty and Shifty are seen running out of a barnyard, carrying a cow, while Lumpy the farmer shouts and chases after them. The thieving brothers toss the cow into a hot air balloon, untie the anchor (rope), and fly away with their prize. Lumpy grabs onto the rope hanging down from the balloon, only to get dragged across the ground. His farm clothes are torn off, his stomach gets scraped, and he is dragged through the circular opening of the pivot the balloon was tied to. This tears the skin off the upper half of Lumpy's body and compresses his body, killing him. Lifty and Shifty tease and laugh at Lumpy, but they then turn to find that the balloon is headed straight for a power line. A bird lands on the power line and is instantly vaporized, leading Lifty and Shifty to lighten the load of the balloon to float above the wire to avoid being vaporized. They begin by throwing multiple heavy objects out of the balloon. This doesn't have any meaningful effect however and the balloon is still on a direct course for the power line. Lifty and Shifty begin to debate on who has to milk the cow to lighten it. Eventually, Lifty begins milking the cow while Shifty pours the milk out of the balloon with a bucket. Eventually, the cow becomes emaciated and is out of milk, but they are still headed for the power line. Lifty shrugs, unsure of what to do, but Shifty has a devious plan to steer clear from the power line. Shifty cold-heartedly throws Lifty out of the balloon, where he is gruesomely impaled on a pine tree through his mouth, spreading his organs on the branches like a Christmas tree. The balloon makes it over the power line, and Shifty begins jumping up and down in celebration. The basket he's jumping on breaks, however, causing Shifty to grab onto the cow's udders for dear life. Shifty sees that the balloon is headed for a fast-moving windmill, and because he is hanging below the basket, Shifty begins getting cut by the blades, shredding his entire lower body, making him scream and groan in pain. His intestines get caught on one of the blades, and his spinal cord is torn by his refusal to let go of the cow. Shifty accidentally lets go of the cow's udders and is spun around the windmill several times before he finally stops, dead. The cow gets out of the balloon, which lands nearby, and begins eating some grass. Before the episode ends, the cow's udders slightly swell up. Moral: "Don't cry over spilled milk!" | ||||||
36 | 9 | "Out of Sight, Out of Mime" | Rhode Montijo | Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro, Jeff Biancalana & David Winn | October 27, 2002 | |
At nighttime, the Happy Tree Friends are enjoying Halloween. Mime walks to a home with a bag and rings the doorbell. The Mole answers the door as Mime shows his bag. The Mole shuts the door, making Mime sad. As he leaves, Giggles, Lumpy, and Flaky arrive at the Mole's home, while Mime rushes in to join them. As the Mole prepares to hand out candy, he drops it and a group of rats eats it. The trick-or-treaters get scared and run away, with Lumpy's scythe accidentally severing Mime's head. The Mole picks it up and slices a hole in the top. He then pulls Mime's brain off and then takes Mime's head out, revealing a candle in his mouth. A rat takes one of Mime's eyes before the episode ends. Moral: "Keep your chin up!" | ||||||
37 | 10 | "Class Act" | Rhode Montijo | Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro, Jeff Biancalana & David Winn | November 3, 2002 | |
In a theater, many animals sit down in their seats. The stage has Nutty sleeping in a bed. The director, Lumpy orders Toothy, who is holding a candle, to arrive on stage. A spotlight turns on, with the Mole manning it. He points it towards Toothy. Lumpy orders Lifty and Shifty to shake Flaky, making her dandruff fall and creating the illusion that it is snowing. Lumpy then orders Toothy to sing "O Christmas Tree", with Sniffles as a candy cane, Giggles as a present, and Cuddles as a Christmas tree. Nutty gets excited when he sees Sniffles' costume and bites off the right side, along with Sniffles' body, mistaken for a real candy cane. As Lumpy orders Toothy to continue singing, Sniffles runs into a rope, causing a weight to drop down and cause Giggles' costume to slice off her face. As it falls off, Toothy continues singing, although tearfully, but Giggles slips on her face and causes it to fly into the Mole's face. He moves the spotlight over to Lifty and Shifty, who get blinded by the light and drop Flaky. She falls down the chimney, causing her quills to get stuck in it, before hitting the ground, skinned. Toothy and Cuddles now scream, and noticing that Lumpy has escaped the building, try to leave. Toothy accidentally drops the candle he was holding and causes the theater to burst into flames. Cuddles tries to escape, but his costume prevents him from leaving. The audience also plans on escaping, pushing Cuddles so hard that his face falls off, presumably killing him. Everyone escapes, although harmed. Toothy prepares to sing, and everyone holds hands around the burning building. However, the theater unexpectedly explodes, sending everyone flying.

Lumpy is seen driving his car through the road. He adjusts his rearview mirror and shaves. Lumpy sees ducks crossing the road and swerves to avoid them, accidentally cutting himself in the neck. As a result, blood covers the windshield. Lumpy turns on the windshield wipers, unaware that the blood is on the inside. The car hits a bump on the road and loses its rear wheel, slowing down to a stop. A tow truck arrives with Handy at the wheel. Handy gets down and lifts Lumpy's car up with a jack. Lumpy starts to pass out from blood loss as he cleans the windshield. After Handy fixes the car, Lumpy waves him goodbye. Lumpy puts the car in reverse and accidentally rams into Handy, crushing him against his tow truck. Handy's tail touches the spinning wheel which causes him to lose his organs and get spun around by the wheel. The car is now filled with blood, and the ducks swim in it. Before the episode ends, one of the ducks picks up Lumpy's razor. Moral: "One good turn deserves another!" | ||||||

Splendid is seen baking bread in his home. Meanwhile, Giggles happily skips in a field of flowers, but she falls. Splendid hears her screaming and flies out of his home to rescue her. As he catches Giggles, he accidentally breaks her back. Splendid soon finds a leaking oil tanker that is covering various animals with oil. As he flies to the boat, Giggles' eyes pop out of her eye sockets. He uses his laser vision to fix the leak, but this causes a spark that ignites the oil and incinerates the animals. Splendid hears someone else screaming and flies away. The screaming turns out to come from Toothy who is panicking over a meteor. As Splendid flies toward the meteor, Giggles' face peels off. He punches the meteor and puts Giggles next to Toothy. As Toothy thanks Splendid, meteorites fall down on the ground, with one of them hitting Toothy. Splendid comes back to his home, only to find that his bread is burnt. He decides to rewind time, causing everything that happened in the episode to return to the start, including the bread becoming unburnt. Giggles falls again, but Splendid ignores her screaming and turns the volume up on the radio. Moral: "Time heals all wounds!" | ||||||

He kicks it away and then asks for a volunteer. Cuddles decides to take part in the act. Lumpy gets a box ready, and Cuddles jumps in the box. He saws Cuddles in half, but this turns out to injure him. Cuddles and Lumpy end up in an ambulance. As Lumpy lays on the doors, they fly open. Lumpy grabs on Cuddles' lower half as it flies out with Lumpy grabbing Cuddles' legs. He pulls on Cuddles' spinal cord, causing his front half to leave the ambulance. They end up at a hospital. Now, in an emergency room, Cuddles is stitched up with his blood being collected in an IV tank. Lumpy decides to entertain Cuddles with some tricks. First, he pulls a bouquet of roses out of his hat. After this, he pulls out a newspaper but doesn't know what to put in it. He finds the IV tank containing Cuddles' blood and removes it from its hanger. He squeezes the blood into the newspaper and makes it disappear. Unfortunately, this trick made Cuddles pass out from blood loss. Shocked at what happened, Lumpy gets a potion and throws it on the ground, leaving a cloud of green smoke. However, it turns out that the potion made Lumpy fall on the floor, with his body being set on fire. Moral: "Two wrongs don't make a right!" | ||||||
41 | 14 | "Shard at Work" | Kenn Navarro | Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro, Warren Graff & Ken Pontac | May 4, 2003 | |
Handy eyes a burned-out lightbulb on the top of a ladder. He reaches for it, but due to the fact that he has no hands, he cannot do it. He decides to use his teeth to unscrew the lightbulb, but the ladder falls, shattering the many lightbulbs on Handy's toolbox. Handy's teeth end up shattering the lightbulb, causing glass shards to cut his mouth. As Handy goes to a first-aid kit, he steps on a glass shard, causing him to step backwards in pain and knock over a table. A fishbowl gets sent flying into Handy's head, causing him to suffocate. Handy bumps into a shelf, destroying it and its contents. He then bumps into a wall, causing a hole to appear. As he keeps slamming his head into the wall, various objects on a shelf come crashing down. Eventually, Handy drowns, and a feather shatters the fishbowl. The fish that was inside the fishbowl is now swimming in the blood inside Handy's mouth. Moral: "The glass is always half full!" | ||||||
42 | 15 | "Water Way to Go" | Kenn Navarro | Rhode Montijo, Kenn Navarro, Warren Graff & Ken Pontac | May 11, 2003 | |
Pop and Cub are at the beach. When Pop is about to step down the wooden steps after Cub, the cooler he is holding slips from his hands and ends up bouncing down said steps. Thankfully, nothing else goes wrong, so Pop picks up the cooler again and continues on. After he sets down the cooler, Cub suddenly wants something to drink, but the soda can has to be opened first. Pop is more than happy to help, only for the can to squirt its contents into his face and press into Cub's face. Later, the now-bandaged Cub is drinking the soda when Pop offers him to play in the sand. After burying the baby bear up to his neck, Pop sees an ice cream truck driving by, so he asks Cub to wait while he buys some ice cream. After buying, however, Pop is horrified to see his son's cap floating above the water. Cub is revealed to be stuck underwater due to the tide washing over him, but Pop does not see him during his search. Pop then tries using a boat to reach the cap. Little did he know that he unknowingly scraped his son's face when he was pushing the boat into the water. Things get worse when Pop turns on the boat's engine, causing the propeller to completely shred poor Cub. Of course, Cub is nowhere underneath the spot where the cap is floating. Meanwhile, Cub's shredded remains become a free meal for the seagulls. Moral: "Keep your head above water!" | ||||||

Lumpy is cutting down a huge tree, only to end up getting one of his legs stuck between one of its branches and the ground when he is running away from the toppling tree. Obviously, the tree is too heavy to lift, so Lumpy tries to cut off the branch instead, but the axe's head ends up flying off when he prepares to swing. Lumpy begins rummaging through his pocket for something else to use. He has a button, a spoon, and a paperclip. He decides to use the spoon — not on the branch, but on his stuck leg. The agonizing process goes on for hours. By the time night falls, the cut area of the leg has been reduced to a bone. The bone is too hard to cut, so Lumpy tries to force his spoon through with the help of a nearby rock. After another cringe-inducing effort, the bone is finally cut, and Lumpy is relieved. Unfortunately, he soon finds out that he stupidly cut his free leg instead of the stuck one. With the spoon bent and unusable, he has no choice but to go through the whole pain all over again with a paperclip. Moral: "The bigger they are, the harder they fall!" | ||||||

Flippy takes a seat at a movie theater. Mime is "eating" loudly nearby, bothering him. Meanwhile, Lumpy walks into the theater with a lot of snacks. This causes him to accidentally bump into the projector. The theater screen begins to flash, triggering Flippy's PTSD. Mime, who is now "drinking" (also loudly), ends up as his first victim as the deer ends up being ripped apart by the seat. Petunia is next as her head is shoved into the popcorn machine, where it is heated to produce popcorn-sized pieces of her brain. After that, Fliqpy chases Flaky. Between flashes, the whole ordeal goes from Cuddles noticing Fliqpy's attack, to getting clubbed by Flaky's body, to finally being left as a corpse alongside the decapitated Flaky. A scared Toothy backs up near the projector, not knowing that Fliqpy is behind it. The poor beaver ends up having his head impaled by said projector thanks to Fliqpy, with one of his eyes stuck on the lens, giving the audience a view of Toothy's eye as it burns away. Lumpy boos at the "movie", not knowing that he is the next victim of Fliqpy. Moral: "A picture is worth a thousand words!" | ||||||

Sniffles is reading a book of math divisions while eating a slice of bread. A baby ant happens to show up in front of him, picking up bread crumbs. Of course, Sniffles does not miss this opportunity to eat him. After that, the anteater leans back to nap. Inside him, the baby ant fires his flare gun to get help from his family. Next thing he knows, Sniffles has been pinned to the tree he leaned onto. The ants begin their rescue mission by breaking through Sniffles's teeth with a battering ram. They tie a rope to his uvula to climb down, but it soon gets ripped off by the ants' weight, making Sniffles scream in pain. However, the ants immediately go for Plan B — Sniffles's heart. One of the ants ties up one of the arteries, causing the blood flow to get blocked and the heart to expand. Soon, Sniffles's heart cannot take it anymore, and it explodes, leaving a large hole in his body. A yellow inflatable slide pops out, and the ants happily slide out. Moral: "Follow your heart!" | ||||||
46 | 19 | "Let It Slide" | Kenn Navarro | Kenn Navarro, Warren Graff & Ken Pontac | September 28, 2004[nb 1] | |
At a water park, Cuddles, Flaky, and Lumpy are standing atop a water slide. Lumpy slides down first, popping out one of the bolts on a part of the slide in the process. He ends up unknowingly slicing an unattended Cub in half. He also ends up losing his swimwear, freaking Giggles out when he exits the pool. In a panic, he grabs a nearby towel hanging on a valve to cover himself, causing the valve to rotate and turn off the water at the slide. A nervous Flaky is next but is unsure about going down the slide. Cuddles begins to pester her to slide down, but despite her refusing, she ends up being pushed into the now-dry slide by the bunny. Her quills begin poking out the slide as she is flayed on the way down. The rest of the bolts finally pop out, causing a section of the slide to lower itself. The bloody Flaky reaches the water, where her body sinks, leaving what is left of her skin to float up. Lumpy soon realizes his mistake and turns the water back on. Cuddles takes his turn, and he enjoys the slide until his body is sliced in half by the lowered section of the slide. Lumpy now uses Flaky's skin to replace the towel, not knowing that it does not even cover his lower half, causing Giggles to scream yet again. Moral: "Don't forget to wear sunblock!" | ||||||
47 | 20 | "Icy You" | Kenn Navarro | Kenn Navarro, Warren Graff & Ken Pontac | September 7, 2005[3][4][nb 1] | (ekd)|
Nutty jitters into a convenience store before realizing that he has no money. Fortunately, clerk Lumpy happens to be in trouble himself — his tongue is stuck in the hot dog rollers. With the clerk unable to watch the store, Nutty uses this opportunity to grab all the sweets for himself. He suddenly comes across a slushy machine, making him drop the sweets he was carrying. He tries a few cups, but those are not enough for the sugar-crazed squirrel. He decides to just drink straight from the machine's nozzle, all while his vision begins to blur. Soon, he finds his lips frozen on the nozzle. Attempting to pull himself away results in him ripping off his lips instead. He stumbles backwards in pain and ends up getting poked by a candy holder. Nutty ends up gruesomely flying around the store as if he were a burst balloon. He stops when he slams into the store's automatic doors. The poor squirrel can only moan in pain before the same doors forcibly close down on him, splattering his crushed remains everywhere. Back in the store, Lumpy (still stuck to the rollers) is mopping up Nutty's mess. During the closing iris, he ends up slipping and falling to the floor. Moral: "Feed a cold, starve a fever!" | ||||||
48 | 21 | "Hello Dolly" | Kenn Navarro | Kenn Navarro, Warren Graff & Ken Pontac | October 3, 2004[nb 1] | |
Petunia is pushing a baby carriage containing her teddy bear when she notices something shiny in the nearby bushes. Turns out it is the cursed idol. Petunia replaces her doll with the idol, not knowing that its presence causes two birds to fall to the ground, dead. She first passes by Pop, who is reading his newspaper, and Cub, who is playing with the fire hydrant. The idol's presence causes the hydrant to blast Cub into the wall, where he ends up reduced to a red paste and a few stray organs (plus his hat). Next, Petunia passes by Disco Bear, who is dancing to some disco music playing through his headphones. Suddenly, the music starts reaching deafening levels, causing Disco Bear's head to explode. Petunia finally arrives at her home, where she prepares to go to sleep. Not long after she turns off the lights, a noise is heard, causing her to turn them back on. She is horrified to see her heart popping out from her body on a bedspring. She tries pushing it back in, but more of her organs pop out stuck on springs. The poor skunk dies, and the lamp turns off. Moral: "All that glitters is not gold!" | ||||||
49 | 22 | "Remains to Be Seen" | Kenn Navarro | Jeff Biancalana, David Winn & Alan Lau | September 27, 2003 | |
A group of costumed Happy Tree Friends (except the Generic Tree Friends, whose costumes are invisible so we cannot see them) are out trick-or-treating, while Flippy is driving a truck carrying barrels of radioactive goo. He stops to let the critters cross the road when suddenly, his car backfires, causing him to flip out. He steps on the gas, killing everybody present, including himself. Later, Lumpy has finished burying all the dead critters. He then notices Nutty's foot still exposed above the dirt, so he pushes it in, but Nutty's arm pops out instead. Lumpy pushes said arm, then another foot, then another arm, before Nutty's head pops out with a moan, prompting Lumpy to bury him in a large mound. He is not out of the woods yet though, as the rest of the dead critters, not just Nutty, rise from their graves as zombies. The moose panics for a while before he decides to run towards his tool shed and grab a lawnmower, using it to destroy the zombies. His lawnmower is suddenly stopped by a pair of hands. Zombie Fliqpy rises from his grave, then leaps onto Lumpy, biting his arm. The poor moose shakes Fliqpy off, tearing off his arm in the process, before running away while letting out a girlish scream. Zombie Fliqpy has no lower body, but he happens to spot zombie Handy, whose upper half is then torn off by him, leaving the legs free for him to use. Lumpy runs back into the shed and has to decide on a tool to replace his missing arm. He picks one, and attaches it to the stump... and it is actually a leaf blower that does not affect Fliqpy at all. That is, until Fliqpy leaps toward him again, causing the leaf blower to get lodged in his eye. Lumpy detaches his arm from the tool and watches as Fliqpy's head inflates and then rips open, exposing his inflated brain, which attracts the rest of the zombies. The apocalypse ends when zombie Toothy bites down on Fliqpy's brain, causing an explosion that leaves a large crater where the zombies end up buried once again, this time for good. Lumpy feels relieved after all that trouble until his arm suddenly attacks him. Turns out, his torn arm has been zombified. As Lumpy looks at it in confusion, the arm punches him out. Moral: "Live and let live!" | ||||||
50 | 23 | "Stealing the Spotlight" | Kenn Navarro | Kenn Navarro, Warren Graff, Ken Pontac, David Winn & Jeff Biancalana | November 9, 2003 | |
Lumpy enters a one-sided competition with Pop on who has the better Christmas decorations after noticing the latter setting up his own decorations with the help of Cub. As for the father-son duo, Pop has just climbed down his ladder and is about to move it somewhere else when he accidentally smacks Cub into the snow with it, causing one of his teeth to fall out. Pop tries to place it back by himself to no avail. He ends up deciding to use his hammer to, well, hammer the tooth back, with unsettling results, though Cub is happy. Back at Lumpy's place, the moose is carrying a ball of Christmas lights when Nutty happens to jitter by from his usual sugar rush. The squirrel notices the lights, mistakes them for sweets, and proceeds to eat them. This causes his organs to get pulled out when Lumpy tugs and forcefully pulls the lights. Meanwhile, Pop is hammering some nails on the roof to tie the lights around, not noticing that the bucket containing the nails is sliding down the roof until it finally falls. By the time Pop looks down, the bucket has landed on Cub's head, with the result too horrific to be seen. The episode cuts to Pop trying to remove all the nails stuck in Cub. He soon finds one nail that refuses to budge. Hammering it back in only makes things worse, but there is nothing else he can do to remove it anyway. After all that trouble, Pop takes Cub outside and plugs the electricity in to turn on all his Christmas lights. The decoration manages to wow Giggles and Petunia, who happen to be passing by, as well as Lumpy. Bothered by this, he decides to do something that he feels can surpass Pop's work. The result is an unholy abomination consisting of various light-generating objects stacked on top of his trailer, including a lighthouse. Lumpy puts his goggles on before turning on his decoration. The night is suddenly filled with light as if it were daytime. Of course, the intense light leads to fatal results: Giggles catches fire, Pop is boiled to death, Cub explodes, and Toothy and the rest of the critters end up vaporized. The light is so deadly it even generates a moon-destroying beam. After the showcase, the burned Lumpy takes off his goggles, revealing that even his eyes have fallen victim to his own lights. The Mole, who even managed to shield his blind eyes earlier, gives Lumpy's decoration a (flaming) thumbs-up. Moral: "Always look on the bright side of life!" | ||||||
51 | 24 | "Ski Ya, Wouldn't Wanna Be Ya!" | Kenn Navarro | Kenn Navarro, Warren Graff, Ken Pontac, Aubrey Ankrum, David Winn & Jeff Biancalana | January 4, 2004 | |
After Disco Bear accidentally bumps into Flaky, causing her to get caught on a ski lift, she must face her fears and ski down a mountain when she gets stranded at the top. She ends up suffering from a foot pierced by a nail on a board, an outstretched arm, an avalanche going after her, and another foot also getting pierced, only this time as her only chance at survival. She eventually crashes through a chain link fence surrounding a cabin. Disco Bear opens the cabin door, showing Flaky shortly before she breaks into numerous little pieces. The cabin is finally hit by the avalanche, covering everything in snow. Disco Bear pops out seemingly fine, only for the board that Flaky was riding on to hit him in the face, the nail piercing his skull. Moral: "Put your best foot forward!" | ||||||
52 | 25 | "Blind Date" | Kenn Navarro | Kenn Navarro, Warren Graff, Ken Pontac, David Winn & Jeff Biancalana | February 22, 2004 | |
After doing some shaving, Mole begins his date. However, being blind, he ends up at the wrong house, causing him to unknowingly date the oblivious Lumpy (who is only interested in his chocolate) and miss his actual date, Giggles. On their way, a semi-trailer truck blocking the road is being fixed by Handy. Of course, Mole ends up running over the orange cone before driving through the truck, causing its hood to close in on Handy and cut him in half. Meanwhile, the roof of Mole's car got taken off and the top of Lumpy's skull got ripped off, exposing his brain and leaving him vegetative. A bird lands on Lumpy's brain and starts pecking it, making him twitch. The two first arrive at a drive-in movie theater, and then at a restaurant. At the latter, a second bird lands on the rotting Lumpy. Elsewhere, on a cliff, Disco Bear is dancing in his car to seduce the visibly uncomfortable Petunia. When he tries for a kiss, he gets sprayed in the face, burning his eyes. Mole's car finally arrives at the spot, and he obliviously bumps Disco Bear's car off the cliff. There, one of the birds picks out a piece of Lumpy's brain. This results in Lumpy's arm spontaneously flying up to slap Mole in the face. Back inside Giggles's house, the still-waiting Giggles hears her doorbell ring. She excitedly opens the door, only to be left confused by the sight of a rotting Lumpy holding a flower, again a mistake by Mole. Meanwhile, an egg is now present on Lumpy's brain. It starts to hatch. Moral: "Love is blind!" | ||||||
53 | 26 | "Suck It Up" | Kenn Navarro | Kenn Navarro, Warren Graff, Ken Pontac & David Winn | February 22, 2004 | |
Sniffles is lying sick on his bed. The baby ant manages to take his cookies because of this. His inability to use his snout does not stop Sniffles from devising an idea to eat the ants yet again, this time in the form of a suction machine worn over his face. At first, it goes well, managing to suck up a bowling ball and then hurl it to the ants' home. He even manages to get his cookies back. That is until the boy ant decides to use a box of nails, which promptly get sucked up and injure Sniffles. The baby ant takes this opportunity to take off the control knob, causing Sniffles to be unable to stop his machine. Sniffles first ends up getting his snout burned off by acid, then falls backward from slipping over a test tube. When he gets up, the machine's tube is stuck on one side of his head. Of course, with the machine still active, it tears a hole in his head and sucks up his brain. The baby ant returns and places the knob back on the device, setting it to blow. This causes Sniffles to be completely sucked into his machine before being blown as a chunk of meat. As the ant family celebrate their victory, the baby ant suddenly sneezes. Moral: "Follow your nose!" | ||||||
54 | 27 | "From A to Zoo" | Kenn Navarro | Kenn Navarro, Warren Graff, Ken Pontac, David Winn & Jeff Biancalana | December 15, 2005[nb 2] | |
Lumpy struggles to keep track of the rascally tree friends when they intentionally run away from him at the zoo. Cuddles and Toothy tease a baboon before running away. Sniffles asks Lumpy to take a picture of him with a said baboon, only for things to go horribly wrong as the anteater gets attacked. While breaking a glass case to get a tranquilizer dart to stop the baboon, Lumpy ends up accidentally injuring Petunia with the broken glass shards. Worse, the first tranquilizer shot ends up hitting her instead, causing her to fall into a snake exhibit, while the second one jabs Lumpy's throat, causing him to pass out. At that point, it is too late to save Petunia. Meanwhile, Cuddles and Toothy tease yet another animal, a rhino. After burning the rhino with a branding iron, Cuddles promptly ditches Toothy before Lumpy can catch him. However, Toothy requests to see the rhino, so Lumpy obliges. He suddenly hears a scream. One head turn later, and Toothy's head gets impaled on the rhino's horn without Lumpy realizing it. Lumpy finds a scared Flaky surrounded by chicks. He makes things worse by accidentally stepping on one, causing Flaky to become even more hysterical. They eventually end up covered in chick blood after Lumpy accidentally slips and crushes more chicks while trying to take Flaky away from the area. As for Cuddles, after playing with some helium, he encounters the baboon again, now free from its cage. When Cuddles tries to run away, he ends up jabbing his eye on the helium tank's nozzle, inflating his other eye like a balloon. Lumpy tries to calm down Flaky with a balloon, but she ends up fainting when she notices that said balloon is Cuddles's inflated eye, with the rabbit himself still attached. In the end, every student but Flaky (who is now traumatized) is dead, with the baboon taking Sniffles's place. As the bus leaves the zoo, a camera flash occurs, followed by the baboon's screech and a bus crash. Moral: "Don't bite the hand that feeds you!" |
