## Episode summary

The episode begins down at Seashell Beach, where Leeko and his friends are enjoying the summer weather. Meanwhile, up at the castle, King Leonardo and Tommy are coping poorly with the heat, prompting the king to devise a plan to induce colder temperatures across the kingdom. He contacts Nebula Enterprises, requesting they send something that will accomplish this. Through the Monster delivery system comes a tiny Snowzilla, much to Leonardo and Tommy's disbelief. King Leonardo ends up getting a taste of the dragon's power when it exhales cold air in his face and arms, freezing them solid, before running off into the countryside. As Snowzilla gets to work, the residents of Usapia begin to notice a rapid shift in seasons, as the heat wave gives way to autumn conditions, and then snow starts to fall. Having never seen snow before, the kids wonder what is happening, and run home.

As the snow continues to fall, Milly uses a microscope in her room to examine the crystals, confirming it using one of her textbooks to be snow. Meanwhile, Moonlight Man ponders how snow is possible in Usapia's climate. The next day, the whole town wakes up to find the land blanketed in snow. Manny tosses snowballs at Leeko's window to wake him up, and invites him out to play. The rest of Puffy Town are also out enjoying the novel weather, and King Leonardo has set up a ski resort. While Leeko and the villagers enjoy themselves, Milly begins to wonder what could be causing this unusual weather. She throws a brief fuss at King Leonardo as he passes by, suspecting him to be responsible, but Moonlight Man instructs her to be patient.

Meanwhile, Manny and Leeko get off track in the woods, and run into a baby yeti called Frozo. After getting acquainted, Manny introduces Frozo to Milly, and then the group gets involved in a snowball fight with the Puffy kids. During the fight, Leeko goes to make snowballs underneath a set of hanging icicles, and Frozo suddenly gains a devilish streak in his eyes. He tosses snowballs at the icicles, intent on causing them to fall on Leeko, but he unintentionally avoids them as King Leonardo comes sliding past on their skis. Milly sees Frozo do this, but Leeko wanders off with him again, completely oblivious to the danger he is now in. Later on, Frozo attempts to dump Leeko into a frozen pond by breaking the ice, but he ends up falling in too. Leeko manages to recover - as he is unaffected by the freezing cold - and goes to rescue Frozo, still unaware of the snowman's intentions. Milly tries to scold Frozo for his behavior, but Leeko defends him.

That night, Leeko invites Frozo over to his house, prompting Hover to fly off, since Leeko had put out the fire. Hover heads to the castle to tell Milly and Manny this. They run to Leeko's house as Frozo prepares to stab Leeko in his sleep with an icicle, but finds himself unable to complete the task and runs off. Milly and Manny reach Leeko's house and wake him up, and as Leeko realizes Frozo has gone, he runs after the escaped yeti. Frozo heads to his creator, Snowzilla, who has now grown gigantic. King Leonardo and Tommy are there as well, as the king complains to the dinosaur about how Frozo failed in his task. Following Frozo's tracks, Leeko and the kids find Snowzilla, still affecting the weather with its frosty breath. King Leonardo orders Snowzilla to destroy Frozo, which it proceeds to, but Leeko jumps in to save him. From there, Leeko battles Snowzilla.

Leeko attempts to vacuum-mouth Snowzilla, but nothing works. Snowzilla then spots the kids and tosses a snowflake blade at them, but Moonlight Man steps in to save the two. Moonlight Man tells Leeko to vacuum-mouth the snowflake blade, which he does, transforming into Ice Leeko for the first time. Ice Leeko spews freezing breath at Snowzilla, this does nothing to the monster as it retaliates with several snowflakes which hit Leeko. Frozo then steps in, stealing Leonardo's snowmobile and picking up Ice Leeko, then launching him into Snowzilla's mouth, where Ice Leeko proceeds to freeze the dinosaur from the inside. Snowzilla then shatters into pieces, burying King Leonardo and Tommy in ice. From there, the weather rapidly returns to normal. The kids celebrate this, but soon find Leeko standing over Frozo, who is too exhausted to move from the heat. Leeko acts quickly; he carries Frozo to the sea to float away on an iceberg where he leaves him, hoping he may find a way to survive. Frozo tells Leeko how much he values Leeko as a friend before going unconscious and later, Milly and Manny reunite with Leeko using their log boat. Leeko calls out for his lost friend as the episode ends.
