Hansel and Gretel like the gingerbread house so Hansel ate the lollipop and Gretel ate the candy cane stick. Then, a mean witch came to the gingerbread house and trick Hansel and Gretel by using her magic wand to lock Hansel and Gretel inside the gingerbread house. While, they conclude their story, they heard to Hansel and Gretel who trapped inside the gingerbread house. So Leo and Annie respond to June, Quincy and Rocket and tell them that Hansel and Gretel are trapped inside the gingerbread house after the witch play a trick by using the witch's magic wand to latch the door. Then, Leo remembered that they left the music note trail and June told that she can use her telescope and soon, they saw some music note trail inside the forest in Germany, so Leo put out his baton and told that they've got a mission about rescuing Hansel and Gretel from the gingerbread house! So they all head to Rocket, buckle their seatbelts, do the pat sequence and blast off.
After they blast off, Annie uses her microphone and sang about rescuing Hansel and Gretel and soon, they arrived at the Black Forest in Germany and saw some music notes along the trail which lead to Hansel and Gretel who is still trapped inside the gingerbread house which belongs to the witch. So Rocket lands at the starting point of the music trail and they all head out of Rocket. Soon, they heard a witch who is pointing at the music note trail which makes all of the music notes to disappear and do the evil happy dance. Soon, they heard a bunny who play short, short, short, long hop. Then, Annie ask the way to Hansel and Gretel and whole team follow the bunny by doing the short, short, short, long hop and soon, they came to three path in Forest in Germany. So the whole team listen to the first path, but the bunny didn't go down the first path. So the whole team listen to the second, but the bunny didn't go down the second path either, so they all listen to the bunny down the third path and the third path is the bunny hop song, so the whole team head down the third path while doing short, short, short, long song and soon, they found the bunny and the bunny leads them back to Hansel and Gretel's music note trail. Annie thanks to the bunny. Soon, they heard Hansel and Gretel which mean they're getting closer and then, Annie sing Hansel and Gretel song once again.
Soon, they arrived at Rhine River and the music note trail goes over the Rhine River Bridge then, the witch reappear on the other side of the Rhine River Bridge who use her magic wand to levitate the bridge. Then, Quincy told that Rocket can take over the Rhine River, but unfortunately, the witch uses her magic wand to levitate Rocket and did her happy dance again. Then, Annie got an idea about descending the bridge and Rocket, so she holds out her new microphone and soon, Rocket and the Rhine River Bridge starts to descend and Annie continues to sing we can sing low as Rocket and the Rhine River Bridge and descend more and Annie continues to sing we can sing low as the Rhine River Bridge and Rocket descend even more and soon, Rocket and the Rhine River Bridge are back on the ground and the whole team walk across the Rhine River Bridge. Soon, they heard Hansel and Gretel as they're getting even closer. But they also heard the witch who's also going to the gingerbread house. June told they had to get to the gingerbread house quickly before the witch does and the team head back to Rocket.
And now, They will have to fly Super Fast! And when they're ready, the team is buckling their seatbelts and using thumbs up while Rocket activates his Backup Booster, the speedy meter activates with music gas. First, they have to start at adagio as they have to pat the beat on their lap slowly. Then, they're going to moderato as they have to pat the beat on their tummies a little faster. Then, they're going to allegro as they have to pat the beat on their shoulders even faster! And finally, the music speed has finally made it to Presto, which means they are ready to reach their arms to the sky and shake their whole bodies! But unfortunately, Rocket's having trouble fitting through those trees and Leo becomes desperate. So Rocket forces to retract his super fast power and land so that Leo and Annie head out to rescue Hansel and Gretel from the gingerbread house, Leo says that he can go all by himself, but Annie told him that she can go with him. So Leo and Annie head out of Rocket and hold their hands while singing Hansel and Gretel song. While singing the Hansel and Gretel song, they see many cuckoo clocks. Then, they resume singing the Hansel and Gretel song while walking and holding their hands. Soon, they reached the end of the music note trail because the gingerbread is near the end of the music note trail.
Finally, they arrived at the Gingerbread House and Leo unlatch the latch and open the gingerbread door and Hansel and Gretel are free from the gingerbread house. Soon, the witch is back and used her magic wand on herself to make her big by conducting a crescendo! Then, Leo got out his baton and uses his baton to conduct a diminuendo to make the witch smaller. But the witch conducts a crescendo again, and Leo uses his baton to shrink the witch even quieter and soon, the witch is now minuscule and Rocket uses his breeze blower to blow the witch far away from the gingerbread house. Then, Quincy and June head out of Rocket to pick up Hansel and Gretel for the trip back home. And they all lived Happily Ever After. Mission Completion for Leo and Annie!
