Plot[]
In Pig City during the evening, King Pig had insomnia. He screamed in frustration, making the noise go over all of Pig City. So he called the guards, Professor Pig and Corporal Pig to help him. King Pig explained the situation to Professor Pig, and he made a plan to make King Pig sleep. While Professor Pig was making an idea, Corporal Pig has a mallet to knock the king out, but Professor Pig stopped him, much to his dismay.
The first plan was to listen to relaxing sounds. At first, King Pig liked the nature sounds and tried to fall asleep, but a water sound suddenly happens (much to one of the guard's discomfort), making King Pig rush to the toilet to pee. Afterward, he came back out and destroyed the phonograph. Corporal Pig showed up with the mallet again, but Professor Pig denied his idea.
The next plan included Professor Pig singing a quiet lullaby to King Pig. Unfortunately, it caused the guards sing loudly (and terribly). To make matters worse, an orchestra appeared with the Tenor Pig singing the lullaby loudly. A Piano Pig dropped from the roof into King Pig's room to play a noisy and off-key piano. King Pig then threw a shoe at Piano Pig who then fell into the piano, showing his annoyance at the Minion Pigs' actions. Professor Pig looked at the shoe then to King Pig, who looked very angry over the fact that it didn't work. Once again, Corporal Pig asked if they could use the mallet on King Pig, but Professor Pig still wasn't on board with it.
The third plan was to use sleep gas to make pigs to sleep. They test it on a minion pig and it worked. They then proceeded to use it on King Pig, but Corporal Pig used too much gases on King Pig. King Pig thought Professor Pig and Corporal Pig in his imaginary dream that they were the toy dog from Dogzilla and a crab that has a coconut tree on his head respectively. They gave some replicated eggs which King Pig ate (was chewing the blanket in reality). After that, he saw a golden egg in the sky, but at the same time, the golden environment became a hellish red hue and the toy dog and the crab became monsters that made King Pig super scared, waking him up in horror. He was now super fed up with Professor Pig, yelling at him and raging.
Now angered, Corporal Pig came again with the mallet. Professor Pig quickly grabbed the mallet since he knew there was no other choice but to use it. Not wasting time, he hit the mallet on King Pig's head so hard, resulting in a knockout, causing Corporal Pig and the Minion Pigs to cringe from the pain. The episode ended with Professor Pig putting the blanket on King Pig while he was sleeping.
