## Episode summary

The episode begins out on Seashell Beach on a warm sunny day, as Leeko and his friends are playing. A moment later, dark clouds begin to suddenly roll over the land, and the seasons rapidly change. much like they did in Snowed!. As the people notice this, they wonder what could be causing the sudden cold, and whether or not it may be another Snowzilla. Milly and Manny head to Castle Leonardo and demand to know if King Leonardo is responsible, but he claims to have no part this time, and Tommy proves it by showing Milly their notice from Nebula Enterprises that they cannot order any more monsters due to unpaid bills. That night, the weather turns to snow and the residents of the castle find it difficult to cope with the cold. The next day, the Usapians awake to find themselves within yet another winter wonderland scenario, and take advantage of the snow as they did before. After getting knocked around for a bit by King Leonardo on a snowmobile, Leeko stumbles across a new creature he has not seen before. Tommy and King Leonardo soon spot more of them.

These new penguin-like visitors soon stumble across the other denizens of Usapia and interrupt their activities. Later on, Milly, Manny, Leeko, and some of the adult Puffies head down to the sea to get a better look at the new visitors, and discover a massive iceberg just off the coast. They are soon addressed by Emperor Pengu from the iceberg, flanked by other Pengus carrying spears. Emperor Pengu explains that his people wander the world using their iceberg and are looking for a place to stay and recuperate for a while. Mayor Bay and Chief Gordy agree to let them stay for the moment, and the Pengus begin to mingle with the Puffies in town. Meanwhile, King Leonardo desires to meet up with the Pengu tribe as well, but Sir Pathogen informs him that the Viruses are not adjusting to the cold very well and are all sick, which causes Leonardo's mood to sour.

As time goes by, Emperor Pengu starts to hint that the Pengus' stay may not be so short after all. As the Pengus become more and more intertwined with the town, Milly starts to have doubts about their motives for staying. Milly questions Emperor Pengu directly about this as well as the sudden change in the weather, but he brushes her off, making her even more suspicious. Later on, Milly concludes that the Pengus must be hiding something in their iceberg, and invites Manny and Leeko to investigate with her. They sneak past the guards and enter a seemingly empty room, but Leeko accidentally finds a hidden passageway and the others follow him through it. After ascending more icy stairwells and halls, the group discovers a massive air conditioner atop the iceberg which they conclude is responsible for changing the weather. However, they end up getting caught by Emperor Pengu and his guards. Later on, Emperor Pengu makes them an example of them in front of the Usapians by freezing them up to the neck in ice cubes and dragging them with ropes through the town. Emperor Pengu then berates the Usapians by asserting that their wasteful use of energy had caused their original home to be destroyed via global climate change, and that the Pengus are now getting their revenge by turning Usapia into a permanent tundra. The Puffies object to this, but Emperor Pengu retaliates by using his frost breath to freeze them all solid.

The Pengus then proceeds to head for Castle Leonardo, intent on taking it over. Meanwhile, King Leonardo is using copious amounts of fuel to keep his own private quarters warm. He is shortly interrupted by Emperor Pengu, who makes quick work of Leonardo and Tommy by freezing them solid. Shortly thereafter, the entire castle is coated in ice, signifying the Pengus' takeover, and all of the notable denizens of Puffy Town are tossed into the jail cell in the police headquarters. While in the cell together, Marvin knits together three Pengu costumes for Leeko, Milly, and Manny to wear, and using the excuses they need to use the bathroom, the Pengus let the kids out. They proceed to change into their costumes while in the bathroom and then walk out with the Pengus none-the-wiser. From there, the three make their way to Castle Leonardo, where they are stopped by one of the Pengu guards. After a brief moment, however, the guard reveals himself to be Moonlight Man, who is also wearing a Pengu disguise. Meanwhile, King Leonardo and Tommy are forced to work as janitors in their own castle, which enrages the former, though he is unable to do anything about it, and finds himself actually wishing for Leeko to come in and save the day. At that moment, Leeko and his friends come in to save the day.

The reunited group enters the throne room and challenges Emperor Pengu to a duel with Leeko, which he accepts. He blows his frost breath at them, and Leeko vacuum-mouths it to get the Ice Copy Ability. After a brief ice breath duel, however, the group realizes that Leeko cannot win this way, as the ice only makes Emperor Pengu stronger. King Leonardo decides to try and order a monster from Nebula Enterprises to help out, but he cannot order one due to his overdue bills. Instead, Gene sends King Leonardo a bottle of hot sauce while Milly calls for the Shooting Star to help Leeko out. Milly then hands Leeko the bottle and tells him to go to Big Boom Volcano. Once there, Leeko pours the hot sauce straight into the caldera in a nonchalant fashion while humming to himself, and then flies off as the volcano begins to erupt. As the lava comes oozing down, the climate rapidly changes back to a warm condition, which forces the Pengus to give up their occupation of Usapia. They quickly retreat to their iceberg and set a course to other lands as the Usapians watch from the shore. Having apparently learned nothing, King Leonardo and Tommy lounge outside with several air conditioners pointed at them, and Milly spoils their lounging by pouring water on them, much like the Pengus did earlier. She tells them they have to start conserving energy, and the episode ends as Leeko proceeds to soak in a small tub.
