The Rugrats and Lou Pickles are at a drive-in movie theater (which the babies refer to as a "parking lot movie"), watching a Reptar movie called Runaway Reptar (the same title as the episode). Their friend, Susie Carmichael, and her parents and two older brothers, are also there to watch the Reptar movie, while Susie's also talking to Angelica Pickles on their two-way walkie-talkies. While they watch the movie they figure out that Reptar is helping his enemy Dactar. The reporters in the movie are also wondering why he is helping Dactar. Tommy says they should go to Tokyo ("Pokyo" as Tommy puts it) to help Reptar become good again. So he takes out his Reptar car and they all get in except Chuckie and turn on three engines before Chuckie finally gets in. They turn on the last engine and fly into the movie, as Angelica says "Who drooled on my cookies?!" In the car, Chuckie asks if they are going too fast, and Tommy replies by stating that everyone ran away when Dactar and Reptar came and they are the only people in the street. So then Lil says "'Cept for the big butterfly!" the babies see that Dactar is flying over their head and scream.
