Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers 2022

In a vibrant world where both fictional characters and humans coexist, two chipmunks, Chip and Dale, embark on a heartwarming journey that begins in their elementary school, where they forge a strong and inseparable bond. As they mature, they relocate to Hollywood, where their comedic talents shine through in their hit television series, “Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers,” during the 1990s. However, their deep friendship takes a darker turn when Dale stars in his own show, “Double-O-Dale,” which leads to a fallout and ultimately the cancellation of both series.

Fast forward thirty years, we find Chip now living a life of disillusionment as a successful insurance salesman, while Dale has embraced CGI surgery, reveling in attending fan conventions. Their mundane lives are jolted into action when they get a surprise visit from Monterey Jack, their former co-star, who is in dire straits due to his addiction to stinky cheese and a debt to the dangerous Valley Gang. He brings alarming news about a sinister operation where cartoon characters are being kidnapped, altered, and shipped off to create bootlegged versions of their beloved shows, trapped in a life of obscurity.

That evening, chaos ensues as they learn Monterey Jack has gone missing. They team up with Captain Putty and Officer Ellie Steckler, who also happens to be an avid fan of their show. With law enforcement unable to take the lead, Ellie proposes that the chipmunks conduct their own investigation. Their first stop is to consult Bjornson the Cheesemonger, Monty’s cheese supplier, hoping to uncover deeper insights about the gang.

Their search leads them to the uncanny valley of town, where they encounter the villainous leader, Sweet Pete, a twisted take on Peter Pan, who attempts to ensnare them. Nevertheless, Chip and Dale cleverly evade his clutches and later meet with Ellie, who opens up about her contentious relationship with Captain Putty after a botched raid on Nick Jr. Channel.

With renewed determination, the chipmunks and Ellie infiltrate a bathhouse to snag Pete’s fitness tracker. Following its signals, they uncover a macabre warehouse used for modifying cartoon characters, revealing several eerie alterations, including Monty’s mustache. This shocking revelation ignites their plan to rescue Monterey Jack and dismantle the villainous operation for good.

A brewing conflict at the police station culminates in Bob and Chip grappling with escalating tensions, all while the tantalizing scent of Monty’s cologne lingers ominously in the air. The chipmunks grow increasingly aware that Putty or Ellie may be in cahoots with Sweet Pete, the devious mastermind behind their troubles.

In a race against time to rescue their friend, Chip and Bob reach out to Ugly Sonic’s FBI connections, only to be thwarted by Sweet Pete and his gang who have been tracking Dale’s social media activity. The ensuing chase becomes a spectacular cacophony of events, leading to Bob being captured and imprisoned in the Valley Gang’s lair.

Meanwhile, Ellie finds herself trapped by Putty, only to uncover that she’s been unwittingly protecting Sweet Pete all along. In a clever twist, Sweet Pete instructs Ellie to call Dale, intending to lure him into another trap. However, Ellie uses her resourcefulness to send a secret message to Dale, referencing their shared adventures from Rescue Rangers.

Sensing the urgency, Dale reconnects with his former comrades, seeking assistance from Gadget Hackwrench and Zipper. They rally together and devise a plan that includes a daring firework distraction, disrupting Pete’s operations and ultimately leading to a confrontation.

Amidst the chaos, Ellie engages in an electrifying showdown with Captain Putty and triumphs as she subdues him. Meanwhile, Sweet Pete’s mental state deteriorates as he pursues Chip and Dale until they cleverly redirect him toward the docks. This clever maneuver involves using tactics straight out of their old Rescue Rangers playbook.

Just in time, the authorities, led by Ugly Sonic, arrive to arrest Sweet Pete and the Valley Gang. In a climactic moment, Pete aims a cannonball at Chip, but Dale selflessly leaps to protect him, with a hidden golden pog saving the day.

As calm returns, the chipmunks celebrate their victory, freeing all the captive toons, including Monterey Jack. They take this moment to welcome Ellie into the Rescue Rangers, encouraging her ambition to start her own detective agency. With Sweet Pete incarcerated, Dale convinces his former colleagues to revive the Rescue Rangers, leading to their much-anticipated reboot that captures the hearts of audiences everywhere.
