Mung Daal’s Catering has been commissioned to create another dish, though this one required an ingredient that is very dangerous. However, when Chowder consumes that ingredient, he gets sucked into his own mouth and is enslaved by the puckerberry overlords. Now, Chowder must try to find a way to save his taste buds and get back to the real world, lest he’ll never be able to eat again.

Episode Quotes |

Wisdom Tooth: This here’s the story about a man. Well, not so much a man, as a boy. Well, not an actual boy; he’s more of a cat-bear-rabbit thing. So, this here’s the story of a cat-bear-rabbit thing. You know what? Let’s just say he’s a boy; makes things easier. So this here’s the story of a boy, a boy who… (the wisdom tooth coughs) …sorry about that, a boy who would come to save us in our darkest hour. | Chowder: Hey Mung!
(Chowder scares Mung Daal, causing him to scream and drop the puckerberry)
Chowder: I got a question! Why are we hiding behind this wall again?
Mung Daal: Now, Chowder, I’ve already told you how dangerous these puckerberries are. If it had popped, the sour juices of this forbidden fruit could have destroyed us all! But, a good chef always knows how to balance the sour with the sweet. I once saw a man who was bold enough, or foolish enough, to put one into his mouth.
(Chowder picks up the puckerberry and puts it in his mouth, without Mung’s knowledge)
Chowder: What happened?
Mung Daal: Well, let me tell ya’. First, his lips puckered up. Then, his eyes started to water uncontrollably. He got the jitters.
(Chowder begins to experience the exact symptoms that Mung Daal mentioned)
Shnitzel: (scared, pointing to Chowder) Radda radda!
Mung Daal: Next, came the severe flatulence. And just when the poor, poor man thought it couldn’t get any worse, his entire head started to pucker until his whole body finally imploded.
Shnitzel: (scared, pointing to Chowder) Radda radda!
Mung Daal: (watching Chowder as he implodes) Yeah, like that. | (Chowder just imploded and got sucked into his own mouth)
Wisdom Tooth: Now, I know what you’re thinkin’, but stop it and pay attention of the story. Sickos. | Chowder: (referring to his mouth) What is this wonderful place?! Woah! It’s a big cave that smells like feet!
Taste Bud#1: Sweet! Sweet!
Chowder: No, I said feet!
Taste Bud #1: Sweet!
Taste Bud #2: Sweet!
Chowder: Feet!
Taste Bud #2: Sweet!
Taste Bud #1: Sweet!
Chowder: Feet aren’t sweet! Unless you had feet made out of caramel, then I guess they’d be sweet. I wish I had feet made out of caramel. | (Shnitzel is cycling on an egg beater in order to pull Chowder out of his moth, while Mung Daal points at the vortex)
Mung Daal: Come on, man, put your legs into it! We gotta pull Chowder out of his mouth!
Shnitzel: (angrily) Radda radda radda!
Mung Daal: (angrily) I’m not making you do all the work! I’m standing here pointing at the pucker hole, aren’t I?!
(The force of the vortex rips off Mung Daal’s clothes, leaving him naked)
Shnitzel: (disgusted) Oh, radda! | (Frank is forcing the taste buds, as well as Chowder, to march)
Frank: You taste buds walk like my stinkin’ grandma! I got places to be, ya’ know?! Maybe spending the rest of your lives in the overlord’s floss mines will teach you jerks a lesson.
Chowder: Man, that guy’s grumpy.
Wisdom Tooth: (narrating) And so, Chowder and the enslaved taste buds marched toward what seemed like certain doom. Well, maybe not certain doom. More like doom with a strong possibility. Possibilidoom.
Chowder: (to the wisdom tooth) Hey, I know you! Can I have some cheese, Mr. Moon?
Wisdom Tooth: I ain’t the sassafrassin moon, ya’ pickle head! I’m your wisdom tooth!
Chowder: My wisdom tooth?! How’d you get up in the sky?!
Wisdom Tooth: Kid, I’m gonna spell this out nice and slow like. You… Still with me? Are… The only one who can stop these angry sour guys from taking over your mouth.
Frank: Move your round pink butts!
Chowder: How am I supposed to do that?! I’m an eater, not a fighter!
Wisdom Tooth: I don’t know, but if you don’t get on it, pronto, you aren’t gonna have a mouth to eat with anymore.
Chowder: (sadly) No mouth…
Frank: Welcome to the overlord’s sour citadel, you freaks! Lair of the sour king! | Chowder: Why are you guys always so grumpy? Sometimes I get grumpy, when I’m hungry.
Frank: Quiet!
Chowder: Shnitzel is usually grumpy, but I think that’s ‘cause he has to make a poo. Maybe you have to make a poo!
Frank: Be quiet!
Chowder: Sheesh, grumpy!
Frank: Bow before his majesty, the sour king!
Sour Ron: What have you brought me, Frank? It doesn’t look like a taste bud.
Frank: We don’t know what it is, your sourness. I found him out by the bicuspids.
(Chowder grabs a cherry and consumes it)
Chowder: Bleh! Sour cherry!
Sour Ron: Yes, everything is sour here, for this is my domain! I am Sour Ron! Lord of this mouth! | Wisdom Tooth: And so, Chowder found his inner rage. Which would grow even more ragey when he saw what those sour guys had done to his sweet tooth.
Chowder: My sweet tooth?!
Sweet Tooth: Sour… So… Sour…. I can’t take it any more!
(The sweet tooth pulls itself out of place, laughs, and jumps down Chowder’s throat)
Chowder: (sadly) That was my favorite tooth… (angrily) I’m mad! | (Chowder is singing a song in order to battle the puckerberry overlords)
Chowder: Now, when things get kind of sour, like before you take a shower, and you’re stinky from your head down to your feet. There’s just one thing that’ll save you, and that’s when you bring your face to, a great big bowl of something really sweet. Oh, we’re sweet, and our sweetness can’t be beat! While we’re the sweetest sweeties of them all!
Taste Buds: Sweet! Sweet!
Chowder: Oh, we’re sweet…
Sour Guards: …yes we’re sweet…
Chowder: …got it tattooed on my seat! So your empire of sour must fall!
(Sour Ron’s citadel crashes down to the ground)
Chowder: When you feel your lips pucker, and you’re sucking on a sucker, there’s just way too much sourness in your life.
Taste Buds: Sour! Sour!
Chowder: So why not be a honey, with ears just like a bunny, and maybe just sweeten up that sour wife.
(Sour Ron is tossed into his angry wife, but she suddenly becomes happy)
Everyone: Oh, we’re sweet! Yes we’re sweet! And our sweetness can’t be beat! While we’re the sweetest sweeties of them all!
Taste Buds: Sweet! Sweet!
Everyone: Oh, we’re sweet! Yes we’re sweet!
Wisdom Tooth: And to gum, they’re pretty neat!
Sour Ron: And my empire of sourness must fall! | Wisdom Tooth: So, thanks to that little bunny lookin’ feller, the taste buds and the sour guys learned to live in peace and sweetness. But, I’ll bet you’re wonderin’ how the heck he got back home. See, there were so much sweetness in the little bunny feller’s mouth after that song, he just plum unpuckered and popped back out. |

Mung Daal: If it had popped, the sour juices of this forbidden fruit could have destroyed us all.
This is a reference to the Book Of Genesis, the first book of the Old Testament. The “forbidden fruit” was said to have been eaten by Adam and Eve, causing the two of them to lose their innocence as well as their connection with God. | Sour Ron: I am Sour Ron!
This is a reference to Sauron, the primary protagonist in The Lord Of The Rings series, which was created by J. R. R. Tolkien and later turned into a trilogy of films. Sour Ron’s name is a direct play on words, as “Sour Ron” comes from a twist on “Sauron”, though there were several other connections between the two as well. |
