Plot[]

Every one hundred years, at strange moon called the Hundred Year Moon occurs, when it the night of the moon begins, it has the ability to make the Wolves more vicious and uncontrollable whenever it happens, at the Wolf Camp, Laval and Eris are there to warn Worriz and the others about the moon but being Wolves, they already know about the moon and are fully prepared for what happens, like Wonald has a full basket of fruit for example to help him prepare. Windra on a Pack Tracker, who is already under the effects of the moon speeds through the camp wrecking it, but Worriz is able to snap her out of her trance and toss her out of the Tracker to be restrained, Laval then suggests to Worriz that they should warn the other tribes about the Hundred Year Moon. They warn the Beavers, Rhinos, Bears, Ravens and then the Crocodiles, Worriz warns Cragger not to try any of his tricks during the night of the moon as he doesn't want anyone to get hurt and he then leaves the Crocodile Swamp back to their Camp, Crooler then tells Cragger that she has an interesting idea involving the Gorillas.

In the Sanctuary Forest, G'Loona is gathering flowers when Crooler cries out to help as she appears to have fallen over, G'Loona goes to check to see if she is okay but it's a trap as Crooler turns around and grabs hold of G'Loona so that Crawley and Crug can capture her and take her someplace else. At the Lion Temple, Leonidas is insisting that Skinnet stay inside with the Lions until the moon passes, but Skinnet rejects as he explains of a legend that every hundred years, the same day as the moon, the stench the Skunks let out becomes purple and smells like a nice patch of flowers and it's from that stench that the plant life of Chima grew into what it is today, he then hops away declaring he is going to share this stink with all of Chima. Lagravis then orders to close down the temple as the moon is about to arrive, at the Wolf Camp the Wolves begin to succumb to the effects of the moon and go berserk, Laval then sends out a Lion distress signal which Eris hears and makes her way over to help while Cragger and Crooler observe from afar, pleased that every is going according to plan.

The Wolves, under the influence of the Hundred Year Moon start rampaging throughout Chima, attacking every tribe in sight. At the same time, Laval and Gorzan are out searching for G'Loona when they follow a trail of flowers presumably left behind by her, Gorzan laments that he hopes she is okay. At the Forever Rock, G'Loona is tied up and a pile of bananas is there in front of her and she reads a note from the Crocs saying that she has all the bananas she needs for whenever she needs the energy to yell for help, she plays along and yells when Laval and Gorzan hear it, they decide that she is at the Forever Rock, but before they can get there they are ambushed by the Wolves, who knock them down and prevent them from reaching G'Loona, Eris then swoops in to help fend off the Wolves but they too latch onto her jet and try to bring it down but Eris ejects the escape pod attached to it and flies back to Laval and Gorzan. At the Forever Rock, G'Loona continues to yell out for help when Wonald shows up, thinking he is there to attack her but he instead goes for the banana pile and starts chowing down on the bananas, meanwhile the rest of the Wolves are tearing apart the vehicles and Laval and Gorzan try to sneak away but are met by Skinnet who loudly greets them, the Wolves hear him and are about to attack when Skinnet lets out the legendary stink spray he spoke of to Leonidas earlier, which temporarily paralyzes the Wolves and the three manage to get away before it wears off.

At the Forever Rock, Wonald is still chowing on the bananas left by the Crocs, G'Loona points out how because of the moon, it must've enhanced his senses so she points him to where more bananas are and he sets off but not before bringing her along, the rope attached to G'Loona's ankle breaks due to Wonald's speed and Cragger and Crooler watch on in disappointment that she escaped but Crooler urges them that they will use another method to get Laval eventually. Gorzan then leads Laval, Eris and Skinnet to their tribe village and set out to find G'Loona, Laval tries to use a Gorilla Striker but is struggling to meditate and be one with the machine, so he and Eris stay behind to watch out for G'Loona who is currently leading Wonald to the Gorilla Forest for the bananas she promised. Just then, the Gorillas run into the Wolves and the Wolves start attacking the Gorillas who are fighting back but the Gorillas are overwhelmed and are defeated by the Wolves, at the Gorilla Forest, Laval and Eris are looking out for G'Loona when she is arrives with Wonald, the two of them then come up and Wonald start chowing on more bananas, but he soon runs out of them and starts crewing on the walls when G'Loona tells them to get more fruit before the walls are gone.

The Gorillas begin their retreat from Wolves but as they try to flee the Wolves continue their assault, slowing them down, while at the Gorilla Forest, the group he feeding Wonald more bananas and apples to keep him from going for the walls but he eats through them anyway, but as he is doing that, Skinnet lets out another stink spray, paralyzing Wonald and preventing from chewing down the walls. The Gorillas have just made it back to the forest but are still being chased by the Wolves when the Wolves slip on the banana peels left behind by Wonald and the Gorillas start making their way back up to the Fruit Steads, just as Laval requests more fruit to slip up the Wolves, the Hundred Year Moon passes and the effects of the moon on the Wolves wears off making them less aggressive again but also unfortunately reverts Skinnet's stink back to its usual smell and he lets out the biggest spray he has ever made onto Laval, Eris, the Gorillas and the Wolves thinking the smell hadn't reverted yet.
