Premise
The evil rabbit-hungry Bear (Brad Garrett) has been dying to feast on a small rabbit for a long time, to no avail at every attempt. Finally, he manages to lay his clutches on a whole species of rabbits with the help of a demonic bear-resembling extraterrestrial race who plans to use the rabbits as their sustenance. It's up to one of the remaining rabbits, Bellybutton (Josh Gad), to save his species from the race's gluttony, and the rest of the inhabitants from the extraterrestrial leader's (Frank Welker) true plan.

Plot
Bellybutton Lint (Josh Gad) sets off through his home forest to meet his girlfriend Jellybean (Grey Griffin), but along the way is confronted by a giant bear, eponymously named Bear (Brad Garrett), who plots to take him and Jellybean in for nourishment. Bellybutton tricks Bear into stucking himself in a barrel (which is covered with explosives) and ignites the fuse creating an explosion which sends the barrel shooting towards the sky and taking the bear stuck inside with it. Arriving at Jellybean's house, Bellybutton finds Jelly delighted to see him but having lost her sanity after a vivid dream centering on the events of the newly published science fiction novel The World Sizzles Before the Grizzles, and decides to purchase an audiobook from Inkblot's (Joshua Rush) record store in hopes of helping her recover.
