Synopsis[]
Stu installs cameras around the Pickles' house to monitor the babies, which he can view on his TV as he also watches a sci-fi marathon. When he falls asleep, and Dil inadvertently changes the channels back and forth between an alien invasion movie and the monitor cameras, the Rugrats think the aliens have their sights set on them. Can Tommy, Chuckie and Kimi stop the attack? - Description from Klasky Csupo
Summary[]
Tommy, Chuckie, and Kimi are playing hide and seek as Tommy is looking throughout the house for any sign of Chuckie and Kimi. He looks in the closet and down the basement stairs but still can't find them until Spiffy finds them for him (they were hiding under the dresser in the living room). Spiffy drags Chuckie out from under the dresser by his pants as Tommy congratulates Spiffy for finding Kimi and Chuckie. However, as Tommy does this, Kimi and Chuckie take off running as Tommy follows after them, saying it is Spiffy's turn to hide.
The kids then run by Didi, who is studying for an exam and has books and papers everywhere; Kimi accidentally steps on one of her papers while running and the babies send papers flying as they run by. Didi then tells Stu that she needed him to watch the kids while she studied.
Trivia[]
- Didi is studying for an exam, implying she has gone back to school for her master's degree.
- Chuckie is wearing pink polka-dotted underwear in this episode.
- Stu falls asleep while watching the babies, just like his dad, Lou, often does.
- This particular cartoon could explain Dil's obsession with aliens in the eventual sequel series, All Grown Up!.
Quotes[]
Chuckie: It's an alien inflation! They're stealing all the toys and turning all the mommies and daddies into alien mommies and daddies!
