Bunnies on the Moon

Not to be confused with Sunny Bunnies On The Moon.

**"Bunnies on the Moon"** is the fifth episode of the first season of *Sunny Bunnies,* and the fifth episode overall.

## Official Description

A solar eclipse interrupts the Sunny Bunnies' play. The sun has stopped working. To solve the mystery, the Bunnies urgently set off for the Moon!

## 5D Description

On the park lawn, the bunnies were playing. With a big colorful beautiful ball. Alas, disaster came! The Moon eclipsed the Sun! And darkness sowed the fear in the eyes! For there were both the light and heat. They were here first, but now they're gone! The moon stands still. What is the reason? Perhaps, the lunar drive is "made in China"?! The bunnies jetted to the moon at once. They want to bring the sun back to the earth. The power house is hard to get into. But not for those who are gay and varmint! The gear-wheels are all in position, but nothing moves. The problem should be solved without delay! What will it be? The darkness or the light? Just watch - and you will learn the answer!

## Plot

The bunnies are relaxing and playing around with a beach ball in a park, when the moon pulls up and covers up the sun. Worried, the bunnies head to a telescope, and use it to head up to the moon and see what's going on. The telescope then teleports the Bunnies to the moon to accomplish their mission.

After landing on the moon, they head through a crater to search the mechanical insides of the moon (you can hear Big Boo’s sound, not his voice). There, they find that an actively-beeping satellite ball has gotten stuck in one of the gears. The Bunnies try to pull the satellite ball out. After trying to take the satellite ball, Hopper shoves it out, allowing the system to immediately start back up and the gears to start spinning and working again into their normal selves so the solar eclipse goes away and they all can go back to earth and relax again. They rush their way out and bring the satellite ball back to Earth pronto before they could get injured.

The bunnies go back to relaxing in the sun now that the moon's out of the way. While the satellite ball is wearing the same sunglasses as the bunnies and listening to music next to them. But then, Hopper falls off his lawn chair and all the bunnies, including the satellite ball look over at him. Hopper giggles, thinking that he’s fine.

## Film Differences

This episode is entirely based off of the second of the series' two 5D pilot films, *Sunny Bunnies on the Moon*. There are several differences made to adapt the story to feel less standalone, and to work with the limited time slot of the series:

* The opening scene zooming into Sunny Park is left out.
* The entirety of the Lunar Bubble Pinball scene is removed, having the bunnies enter the moon through a crater nearby where they landed instead.
* When Hopper falls off his lawn chair at the very end, the rest of the bunnies and the satellite ball look over at him to end the episode, where in the film, they all continue dancing even after Hopper falls over.

## Fun Facts!

The satellite is modeled after Sputnik, the first satellite in space.

The music which they got inside is In the Hail of the Mountain King by Edward Greig.
