Synopsis[]
When Angelica takes a taste of the cake her mommy makes, she imagines eating the entire thing. Then she imagines her mommy taking her to perform in a special talent show, where not only does she win, but she gets to show up Susie Carmichael (1991). This is followed by a feeding frenzy inside a candy shop, and a journey inside the assembly line of a multi-national corporation that makes endless supplies of Angelica dolls and toys. Too bad it was only a dream... or was it? - Description from Klasky Csupo
Recap[]
Charlotte bakes a cake, and Angelica reaches for the cake. Charlotte moves the cake, telling Angelica that it took her all morning to get the flowers right on the cake. When Charlotte leaves the room to do her business, Angelica puts her finger in the cake, tasting it. Then she pulls the cake back, and starts eating handfuls of it. Charlotte walks back into the kitchen, seeing that Angelica had eaten the whole cake. Charlotte decides it's not a big deal, and just makes another cake.
Angelica thinks, and walks outside, where the babies are eating cookies. She brags about how she ate a whole entire cake, and then Tommy tells her she can have his cookie. All of the other babies proceed to do so. Charlotte asks Angelica to come see her inside, and Angelica tells her that she was sorry she ate all of the cookies. But, Charlotte tells her that she is a contestant in the Super Special Kids Talent Show.
Angelica wins the contest and Susie comes in second place. Susie starts to cry when she lost. But Charlotte, Tommy, Chuckie, Kimi, Phil & Lil sit in the auditorium seats. Angelica receives a super shopping spree, and a trip to Grammy Ginger Snap's Sweet Shop. At Granny Ginger Snap's Sweet Shop, Angelica comes out of a limo on a horse, and walks in. She asks Grammy Gingersnap where the chocolate marshmallows are, and Grammy points. Angelica eats some, eats a bite of chocolate cake, eats a scoopful of gumballs, eats some more chocolate marshmallows, then eats some button-shaped candies, as Chuckie, watching along with his friends from outside the shop, comments on how good things happen to good people. Grammy tells Angelica that she should share with her friends outside, so she grabs a handful of wrapped candies, and throws them out the window above the front door, where the babies are watching.
Angelica proceeds to eat chocolate muffins, while Grammy complements that Angelica is a smart kid, and she says thanks. Then, Grammy comments that Angelica's the only person that she's seen with a sweet tooth like her, and decides to give her the whole Granny Ginger Snap's Sweet Shop franchise.
Angelica, the Rugrats, and some others work at the main factory. Angelica asks Kimi (who looks like a business woman with glasses taking notes) to have more posters of her on the walls. Then, she tells Kimi that her name should be on everything, especially pens. Charlotte gets a job there, and walks in, telling Angelica that what she loves more than corporate domination, is corporate domination with her number one girl.
Angelica then walks up to Phil and Lil, who are operating the sticker conveyor belt, telling them that her head isn't big enough. Another baby hears this, and proceeds to make the doll's heads bigger, too. Then, Angelica tells the babies to put her name bigger on the Angelica Home Game. She also tells Kimi that she wants to make an Angelica CD, so that people can listen to her beautiful voice every second of every single day.
She then tells everybody to produce the items faster and makes them do so. The workers are unable to turn off the doll machine, which eventually starts to flood the factory with Angelica dolls. Chuckie says they're doomed, and this is all because of Angelica eating the cake. Angelica says she had just wanted to make the world a better place, and then snaps out of it, revealing it was all just a daydream. Angelica starts to apologize to Charlotte for eating the cake, which in reality has not been eaten, and has just finished being decorated by Charlotte. She asks if Angelica wants a slice. Angelica then runs out of the room, saying the order of events that had just happened and screaming.
