Plot
In a cold opening, a "silence your cell phone" movie theater PSA is playing until laughing gas filled the air of the video and everyone is unconscious with hideous grins. The Joker walks the room and shoots the PSA's narrator dead. He takes his seat and addresses the audience that there's no point of getting a refund on your movie tickets because we have your money now and you can't do anything about it. He noticed on he's got the wrong ticket for his movie. He leaves the theater and ask if Harley can demand the theater employees for a refund.

The film begins at the 1970s, 16 year old Carrie Toon was walking to school with her little sister Nettie. Carrie is failing art class and has to make up for it. During lunch, she witnesses Nettie being bullied by the popular girls, led by Shae Leonard. Carrie steps up for Nettie by making Shae fall into the trash can. Carrie gets detention for harassment and has to spend her Saturday detention at working on an art project if she wants to pass the class.

At Saturday detention, she is the only one there. While she's there, obviously bored, she looks out the window and wishes that she can escape her old life and venture into a new one where everyone loves her, sure her family does, but it's not enough (One Day I'll Fly Away). As she wonders what to do, she finishes her project. But when her father, Jeremaih (Simmons), walked in, he's shocked that she finished her work. Impressed, he tells Carrie that he's proud and that she has a bright future ahead of her, much to her delight.

As the years ago by...

In the Present Day, at a large, dimly lit space in a warehouse, Jacob Arbogast (Crowe), the president of Cartoon Network, has been called on by a secret international cabal of animators called The Syndicate, led by a mysterious figure. The Syndicate is disturbed because Carrie Toon has still not been found since she was kicked out of the network back in 2007. Arbogast wonders why bother her again since once she was thrown out, The Syndicate got what he wanted: The Network destroyed by a mass produce of poor content. The Syndicate direct Arbogast to try to find her because if she resurfaces, she's gonna find out the "real" reason why she was kicked out. Arbogast agrees, but ask what to do with her once she's found, The Syndicate instructs him to wipe her memory of who she is, permanently.

Cut to Monday morning, Jack Morton (Scott) is heading to work on his first day as a studio executive at Cartoon Network Studios. He walked to Arbogast who's talking to his lawyer Danny Dollar (Bennett) about Cartoon Network. Jack walk in and introduce himself to Abrogast, Abrogast greet and welcome him kindly to the Cartoon Network Studio Family. He's planning to have an upcoming gala to celebrate the yearly anniversary of Cartoon Network with celebrities invites.

...

When he gets home, Jack notices that his niece Hayley (List) at the doorstep with his sister, Emily, (Hahn) who's telling him that Hayley's staying for the summer, much to Jack irritation. Emily leaves and Jack doesn't know what to do with Hayley.

And the days feel like years when I'm alone

And the bed where you lie

Is made up on your side

When you walked away I count the steps that you take

Do you see how much I need you right now

When you're gone

When you're gone

The words I need to hear to always get me through the day

And make it OK

I miss you


 * Carrie (singing):

I've never felt this way before

Everything that I do reminds me of you


 * Nettie (singing):

And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor

And they smell just like you,

I love the things that you do

When you're gone

The pieces of my heart are missing you

When you're gone

The face I came to know is missing too

When you're gone

The words I need to hear will always get me through the day

And make it OK

I miss you...
 * Carrie: You really mean it?
 * Nettie: Yes! Yes, I do.

Come what may

I will love you until my dying day
