Vanellope, Judy, Beth, Hank, and Lawrence go underground and approach the Savanna. Lion, Giraffe, and Elephant are looking for their herd of antelope to which Vanellope makes a deal with them: If they help find the herd, he, Giraffe, and Elephant can join the quest. A pack of hyenas attacks the herd, but Vanellope, Witherspoon, and Lion manage to protect it.
In the Rain Forest and Tropics, Vanellope, Witherspoon, Judy, Beth, Hank, Lawrence, and Lion collect Monkey and Parrot and see a shocking evidence: Monkey's house has been ripped to shreds. They question Jaguar, and she explains that Spide hired carnivorous animals to kill them. True to form, a python chases Vanellope, Witherspoon, Judy, Beth, Hank, Lawrence, Lion, Jaguar, Monkey, and Parrot out of the Rain Forest and Tropics, though they defeat it. They reach the Outback and collect Kangaroo, Koala, and Dingo. Suddenly, a tasmanian devil comes to bring them to Spide. Vanellope manages to defeat the Tasmanian devil. After reaching the Polar Regions. On land, Beth gets cold, and they warm her up by a fire, drawing the attention of Seal, Polar Bear, and Penguin.
Spide kidnaps everyone and takes them inside her lair, announcing the purpose of her plan and leaving them to die. Vanellope frees herself, puts on a parachute, and jumps down to safety. The others assume Vanellope died, but is given a message that she is still alive. Spide's evil plan involved making things her way forever; the only way to do so is to turn all wild animals into Spider zombies. They go to find Vanellope but are intercepted by the animals who have been transformed. Vanellope arrives on the scene and chastises Spide for forcing her views on everyone. She then proceeds to steal Spide's scepter and smashes it, snapping the possessed animals out of their Spider zombie state.
With her plan foiled, Spide places blame on Vanellope for destroying her perfection and her tribe's survival. A giant black widow spider attacks Spide's lair. Vanellope tells Spide to let go of her anger, reminding her that is not necessary to destroy animals and their habitats and that all animals should get along, no matter how different and far apart they are. A remorseful Spide apologizes to Vanellope and Witherspoon and accepts their offer of friendship. The lair crumbles as the giant spider continues attacking. As everyone evacuates, Spide destroys her lair with a lightning blaster, crushing and sinking the monster.
