Characters Present[]
Plot[]
The Rugrats are eating spinach together at the table for dinner. Angelica hates spinach, and would rather play with the Reptar Wagon, which is broken. Didi says that Stu might fix the wagon for Angelica, but she needs to eat her dinner first. Angelica protests that she doesn't want to eat the "yucky" spinach, but her aunt tells her that, if Angelica wants to be a big girl, she has to eat like one. Angelica asks if she can stay a little girl for just a while longer, and have Reptar cookies instead of the spinach. Didi tells her that cookies aren't for dinner. Angelica retorts that her Grandpa Lou has cookies for dinner, to which Lou claims that he doesn't know what his granddaughter is talking about. Didi decides that it's best for both her niece and her father-in-law if she hides the cookie jar; she puts it in the garage and locks it. After Didi has hidden the cookie jar, Angelica orders the Rugrats to get the cookie jar and bring it back to her, claiming she will starve if they don't find the cookies in time. She says that she will let each of them have a cookie if they follow through.
Their mission becomes a prehistoric fantasy, where the Rugrats, now "cavebabies", find Dil (Diggle), the "Wise Cave Baby", so he can point them in the direction of the cookie jar, or "Cookiesaurus". However, as greedy and selfish as she is, as soon as the toddlers retrieve the cookie jar, Angelica goes back on her promise of a cookie for each of them and keeps all the cookies for herself. She starts eating them until she is caught red-handed with her hand in the cookie jar. Eventually, Angelica is busted by her Aunt Didi for eating cookies behind her back. As a result of her disobedience, Didi makes her niece eat the rest of her spinach before she can have any more cookies. To Stu's surprise, the Reptar Wagon is fixed (thanks to the Rugrats who, during their fantasy, ended up reassembling it).
