In the movie, [[TheYellowIndex Greg]], [[PaintTheIndexRed Murray]], [[BlueTropes Anthony]] and [[PurpleIsTheNewTrope Jeff]] embark on a journey to find Dorothy the Dinosaur after she takes chase to an amateur [[StageMagician magician]] named Wally the Great, who steals Greg's magic wand in an attempt to become a better magician. Meanwhile, Dorothy feels sad, as she thinks that The Wiggles (and everyone else) have forgotten her birthday, but in fact they're planning a surprise party for her at a circus tent that same night. The Wiggles and Dorothy also run into [[FunnyOctopus Henry the Octopus]], [[ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything Captain Feathersword]] and [[BigFriendlyDog Wags the Dog]] on their separate journeys, as Dorothy becomes increasingly worried about whether anyone will remember her birthday at all.
