When Flik gets his ant colony in trouble with a bunch of mean grasshoppers, who they gather food for, its up to him to get them out. He finds a group of what he thinks are warriors, but ends up with just clowns. Always optimistic, he sets up a plan to trick the grasshoppers into leaving. When the plan falls apart at the last minute, will anybody still listen to Flik, and follow him to freedom?
