Plot[]
Fionna and Cake in their house, and BMO sitting against the wall with an apple on its head. Fionna tosses an axe at BMO, splitting the apple in half. Fionna says that she needs to do something with her day, as Prince Gumball's missions tend to be lame. She spins around and throws another axe at the wall, just as Prince Gumball arrives. The axe barely misses him, slicing his hair. He disregards the accident and offers Fionna a tray of creampuffs as a reward for her most recent mission, which Fionna politely declines.
A sudden noise startles Fionna and a blur passes through the house, stealing all the creampuffs. Another noise is heard on the roof and Fionna goes to investigate in the rain, carrying an umbrella and Prince Gumball on her back and Cake under her hat. On top of the roof, Marshall Lee is playing his guitar, and greets casually says hello to Fionna and makes and exaggerated sarcastic greeting to Prince Gumball, taunting him while drinking the red from the jam of a stolen creampuff before throwing it in Gumball's face. Gumball retreats back inside while Fionna, Cake and Marshall Lee (in his Giant Bat form) fly off to Lumpy Space Prince's party in the woods.
After arriving, they get on a stage as Marshall Lee prepares to sing a song for the crowd. Fionna sings along with him as Cake grows from under her hat, making Fionna's long hair tumble free as Cake takes Fionna's shape so she can dance with Marshall Lee. Cake takes over singing as Fionna and Marshall Lee discuss whether Marshall Lee is bad or not, and why Fionna wants to spend time with him. Their discussion leads to playful fighting which gets a little too rough, causing Cake to step in and break it up. Marshall Lee dismisses Cake, shoving her off the stage into the bushes. Fionna rushes off angrily to check on Cake.
They both leave the party with Marshall Lee following behind, trying to get her to come back, but his mistreatment of Cake not something Fionna will put up with. Marshall Lee then grabs Cake from Fionna and flies off, to prove how much of a bad boy he is. Fionna catches up with him at a graveyard, where he summons an army of skeletons who help him fight Fionna and provide beatboxing for another song.
Fionna defeats the skeletons while a giant Cake and Marshall Lee's Giant Bat form fight with each other. Fionna rushes over and pulls Cake away from Marshall Lee, causing him to fall over onto a spear protruding from the ground. He reverts to his human form, moaning in pain as the sun rises behind him burning his skin. Cake provides shielding from the sun as Marshall Lee states that this is it for him, and asks for Fionna to admit that she loves him before he dies. Fionna tears up as she angrily accuses him of messing with her head even at a time like this, and demands that for however long they have left, that he stop messing around and be honest with her.
Startled, Marshall Lee sits up admitting that he wasn't actually dying, that the spear missed him and stabbed the stolen creampuffs under his shirt. Fionna punches Marshall Lee on the cheek, laughing and crying at the same time as she advances on him with her fists raised.
