Plot[]
Once upon a time in the Rocket Room, Annie introduces herself in a singing tune without her microphone, stating that she and her friends are looking for a book on Rocket's bookshelf because they love reading stories. Rocket finds a book about a musical beanstalk, and Annie begins to narrate the story while everyone listens. The story is about a Golden Goose who has a lovely singing voice, just like Annie, and who lives with her family.
But one day, a thundering Forte Giant—singing the tune of "Symphony No. 5" and shouting "Fe Fi Fo Fum! Fe Fi Fo Fum!"—climbs down his musical beanstalk and snatches the Golden Goose. The giant locks the Golden Goose in a cage with a password of "Fe Fi Fo Fum! Fe Fi Fo Fum!" and goes high up to his castle in the clouds. The Forte Giant wants to keep all of the Golden Goose's music for himself.
It's up to Annie and the crew to rescue the Golden Goose. The team runs to Rocket as Leo pulls out his baton to start their fairy tale adventure. They all run to Rocket and... BLAST OFF!
They see the beanstalk and begin to go up through the clouds, spotting the castle as they enter. They must find their way through a castle created entirely from Van Gogh paintings. They go through the kitchen and hide from Forte to avoid being seen. Then they head into the giant's bedroom and hide when he comes in and sits in his chair, blocking the exit to the tower where he keeps the goose.
But Quincy spots a green harp and decides to play soft, soothing music to put Forte to sleep so they can get past him. They make it to the tower and see the Golden Goose in the cage. Rocket tries to open the cage, but it's locked with the giant's password. Annie and the goose sing the password together in forte—as loud as they can! The cage door opens all the way, and the goose is finally free!
Suddenly, they hear loud forte singing, which isn't Annie, but the giant himself, who has woken up from his nap! The room shakes from Forte's loud singing, and the team and the Golden Goose are shaken! The team and the Golden Goose all run to Rocket and escape super fast to the beanstalk so they can get away from the Forte Giant!
As they fly right past the giant, he spots them getting away. They make it to the bottom of the beanstalk, and the team gets out along with the Golden Goose. Annie sings a quiet song to make the beanstalk tiny, and the Forte Giant is blown away with the clouds! The goose family embraces the Golden Goose now that she's back, and they all live happily ever after! Mission Completion!
