Synopsis[]
YouTube[]
Talking Hank's just got some bad news – his favorite TV show is ending. He'll do anything to stop it, even cross dimensions!
IMDb[]
Talking Hank's worst nightmare is coming true - his favorite TV show, Bongo and McGillicuddy, is coming to an end. Determined to save the show, Hank takes a leap into the unknown - literally crossing dimensions and entering the world of the show. Will his crazy plan work? And will he ever be able to find his way home?
Plot[]
Hank is seen crying and hugging the television due to his favorite show being cancelled. Ben says it could be possible to get into the television to convince Bongo not to retire. Hank mishears the statement, and literally jumps into the television, only to bump his head onto the television.
Ben builds a remote that could open a portal to the television world. Ben isn't willing to let Hank into the television until it was tested for safety, but Hank impatiently takes the remote and jumps into the television breaking the remote in the process.
Hank lands hard in the two-dimensional world of Bongo & McGillicuddy. Hank finds them and begs them not to retire. Bongo recognizes him as Hank from Talking Tom and Friends, pointing at a television playing a video of Tom and Ben. Meanwhile, back at the garage, Angela and Ginger notice that Hank was on television.
Hank begs them to continue their careers, but Bongo refuses, claiming he was too old. He submits their badges to their chief. Meanwhile, Ben's desk disappears mysteriously; the garage's dimension got linked into Hank's world, and if they didn't do something about it everything would be sucked into the television world. The friends figure only Hank could solve the problem, and sit down to watch the show, only for the couch to disappear.
Hank asks Bongo for the television transporter they had in a specific episode. According to the fan guide the transporter was stolen by Dr. Technology and was never recovered, and that the doctor had escaped jail. Bongo takes back their badges and sets out to catch him. They all search for Dr. Technology and find him in an apartment, then takes him in for questioning.
They interrogate him about a toothbrush that was found in his cell. The doctor denies involvement, and claims the electric toothbrush was nothing more than a device used to brush his teeth. However, Hank notices that his teeth are far more yellow than normal. The doctor tries to escape into the real world with the toothbrush, but Hank quickly turns it off, and the doctor bumps his head.
He is arrested, and Bongo agrees not to retire. He gives Hank an honorary detective badge. However, he is supposed to get in trouble with the chief for illegally allowing a civilian to investigate but is proud that he got results. Hank thinks of staying there permanently, but then an armchair appears. Hank realizes he had to get the real world before his world gets cancelled. He takes the toothbrush and jumps into the television.
Hank wakes up to find it was all a dream; he was comatose after hitting his head. However, he finds a toothbrush and a police badge on the floor, to which he thanks Bongo and McGillicuddy.

- The title "The One with all the Thievery" may be a nod to the episode naming convention of Friends.
