Plot[]
A woman is seen taking care of her baby in the park and putting it to sleep. A man, nearby and sitting on a bench, claims that babies get to sleep all the time and jokes that he doesn't have time to eat. But Bebeping appears nearby to turn the man into a baby with her magic rattle! The man — now turned into a baby — starts to cry, which gets the attention of the nearby woman and some other townsfolk. One of them decides to call the police, with Bebeping wanting to turn them into babies too.
Meanwhile, Lena is seen playing basketball with Hani, Cindy, Dylan, Romi & Marylou. Lena readies to shoot a free throw, but the sound of a baby crying throws her off and she hardly makes the shot. Lena complains to the woman trying to take care of the baby, telling her to leave. Romi, Marylou, and Dylan argue that she shouldn't have blamed the baby since all it knows how to do is cry, and Lena leaves with Hani & Cindy.
Hani & Cindy ask what that was about, and Lena points out that she hates babies since all they do is cry all day and all night, and put everything in their mouths, even though Lena now has a baby sister... A woman approaches with a stroller (with Bebeping inside) and Hani & Cindy exclaim over how cute it is, while Lena says she hates them. Bebeping, offended by Lena's remarks, uses her magic to turn Lena into a baby. The stroller leaves and Hani & Cindy wonder where Lena is.
Hani & Cindy take the baby they found to Heartrose Bakery and try to ask Romi what to do. Romi recognizes that the baby sort of resembles Lena. Hani & Cindy left Romi to take care of the baby to go look for Lena much to her shock. The Royal Teeniepings arrive to tell Romi that it is the work of Bebeping, and Chachaping explains that Bebeping once turned the denizens of Emotions Kingdom into babies to make them remember what it was like to a young, happy baby. Romi opts to stop Bebeping's trouble-making by enlisting Lalaping to transform with her, while she leaves Baby Lena to the others. Jun arrives to see the baby, but quickly leaves when the Teeniepings ask if he could help take care of it.
Romi & Lalaping arrive at the park on Romi's bike to meet Bebeping, and they transform into Princess Melody together. Bebeping launches three streams of Tinkle Puff in Romi's direction, but Romi dodges them. But Bebeping's magic comes with a twist; it reverses in the direction it was supposed to go and hits Romi, turning her into a baby, much to the shock of Lalaping.
Meanwhile, in Romi's bedroom, the baby is seen crying as Dadaping brings it some milk, but the baby refuses. The baby then has an accident in her pants meaning that it's time to change her diaper. But as Dadaping & Gogoping try to leave (realizing what they'll have to do), Baby Lena winds up sitting on the two boys.
Things aren't looking up for Baby Romi & Lalaping, as Romi gets distracted by a butterfly. Lalaping tries to chase her around, but Romi won't stop for anything. She continues to follow the butterfly onto a park bench until she reaches the edge of it and starts to fall. Lalaping tries to catch Romi but ends up getting squished. Fortunately, Romi is okay as she continues to follow the butterfly, but unfortunately Lalaping lies on the ground dazed after trying to catch Romi.
Back in Romi's bedroom, Baby Lena is all cleaned up now as Heartsping & Chachaping compliment it, but she half awakes and suddenly grabs Heartsping and starts sucking on her mouth much to everyone's horror. Dadaping realize it's the baby's time to eat, and Heartsping pleads for help. Dadaping & Gogoping attempts to do nothing and ditch the two girls, but Chachaping smacks them from behind and orders them to get a bottle of milk for Lena.
Meanwhile, a little girl is seen riding her scooter, with Baby Romi walking in its direction while still chasing the butterfly. Lalaping uses her magic to move the scooter out of the Romi's way, saving her. Bebeping tells Lalaping she should be more careful as she can't take her eyes off babies and must watch them, to which Romi responds in babbles. Unfortunately, Bebeping can't understand so Lalaping uses her microphone to translate what Romi's saying. Romi says someone should also be looking out for Bebeping as she is a baby herself. Bebeping, realizing she doesn't know where her mother is, starts to cry. This makes Romi cry too, so Lalaping tries to cheer them up by singing. Unfortunately, Lalaping sings really bad which gets both of them to stop, and gives Romi the chance to catch Bebeping, remarkably while she's still a baby. Bebeping admonishes Lalaping for her horrible singing, and Romi then turns back to her normal self again. Meanwhile, Lena is in Romi's bed drinking a bottle of milk when she also turns back to her normal self again, realizing where she's at and what else has just happened, with the Teeniepings all exhausted after taking care of the baby.
Meanwhile, Lena and the other girls are seen drawing with Mr. Dayne, and a baby is seen crying as a man tries to comfort it. Cindy starts to grow annoyed but Lena, uncharacteristically, tells her to be patient as it's the only thing a baby knows how to do. Romi jokes about Lena having this change of heart about babies...
