Thunder Chuck

Thunder Chuck is the twelfth episode of Angry Birds Toons.

Toons.TV Description
Chuck is on guard duty during a heavy storm, but doesn't want Red to find out that he's scared of lightning.

Plot
Chuck had to guard the nest during the night while Red was busy. The Pigs sneak up in a cardboard bush, getting closer as Chuck was not looking. Then Chuck saw and heard what appear to be a flash of lightning and afterwards, a sound of thunder. This freaked out Chuck, who ran into Red, who wondered what was going on. Chuck ran back to his duty. Suddenly, more thunder and lightning occurred after a while. Chuck hid himself with a blanket. Corporal Pig looked out from behind the fake bush and laughed until Red arrived. Red came to the nest for more grass, and when he saw Chuck under his blanket, he wondered what was really going on. When Chuck said that he was saving the blanket to put around the nest, Red walked away.

In reality, the thunder and lightning were fake — the pigs were playing a prank on Chuck. They used a gong for thunder and a camera for lightning. The pigs continued to scare Chuck, until he finally freaked out and dug in the ground (like a drill). The Corporal Pig felt that they had finished the prank and was ready to steal the Eggs, but the two Minion Pigs continued to produce fake thunder and lightning. The Corporal Pig told the other pigs to stop. Then real thundershocks from the now gray clouds occurred. The Corporal Pig thought it was the Minion Pigs still doing the prank and began to leave with the eggs, but then he got struck by the real lightning. This scared the other two pigs, and they ran away (getting struck multiple times by lightning in the process).

It started to rain, and Chuck got out of the hole he dug. Chuck sees that the Eggs were missing and the Corporal Pig was trying to steal them, so he ran over to beat him up, activating his headband to dodge lightning strikes. Red came back, shaking off all the water that was on him. He noticed that the Eggs were stolen and gets enraged, but then saw Chuck beating up the Corporal Pig. Chuck came back with the Eggs and put the blanket over them before giving Red an umbrella. Red was happy, but then lightning struck him and his umbrella. To end, Chuck says, "Oops."
