Peg, Cat, and the Pig are at the farm, planning to have a picnic with pie. Peg talks about how everybody has a piece of pie the right size for them, but then she notices that there is one extra slice of pie. She does not like the idea of no one eating the pie, but Cat brings a chicken over to take the last slice. However, the rest escape and begin to run amok. This is trouble because the farmer (who is out in his cornfield) outright said not to let them escape.
They try to carry chickens back into the coop but can only bring ten back. Peg tries calling the rest but they don't listen. She decides to make them race into the coop, but the ten ones in the coop race out instead.
They wander into the barn, where Ramone is making a liquid that makes corn stalks grow taller. Peg asks Ramone for help with the chickens and he brings out two wheelbarrows and a pram, then sings to them to come in. They do, and then Ramone leaves. They try to push the wheelie things but they're too heavy, so Peg has her freak-out. She then notices Cat with a slice of pie and has an idea: organize the wheelie things by size like they organized the pie. This works and the episode ends with the farmer joining in on their picnic.
