At Arendelle, they meet and befriend the beautiful princess Anna, who shows them around the castle. She introduces them to Elsa, but she refuses to allow them in the kingdom, resulting in an argument between them. As Vanellope finds Elsa's warnings ridiculous, a drift takes them out of the kingdom, and Anna begs to get back. After surviving a wild storm, they find themselves on an island and encounter Octopus, and his partner Mole, who tell them to defeat Orca King once and for all. But when they get there, however, they are knocked out. They are also tied up on boards. Orca King sings a shanty to get them to stay, but Anna refuses, resulting in a battle that sinks the ship.

Plot

On November 2017, Judy Hopps is showing children walking sticks, but the walking sticks leap on her. She tries to get them off, but she is carried away from Zootopia and across the sea until she winds up in Sugar Rush. She tries to find a way out, but suddenly meets Vanellope Von Schweetz. They go to the kart bakery to make an escape boat. When they complete the boat, a shark chases them, destroying the boat and flinging them into the kingdom of Arendelle.

At Arendelle, they meet and befriend the beautiful princess Anna, who shows them around the castle. She introduces them to Elsa, but she refuses to allow them in the kingdom, resulting in an argument between them. As Vanellope finds Elsa's warnings ridiculous, a drift takes them out of the kingdom, and Anna begs to get back.

After surviving a wild storm, they find themselves on an island and encounter Octopus, and his partner Mole, who tell them to defeat Orca King once and for all. But when they get there, however, they are knocked out. They are also tied up on boards. Orca King sings a shanty to get them to stay, but Anna refuses, resulting in a battle that sinks the ship.

They rescue Jaguar, who berates them for their foolish actions. The next morning, Jaguar spots a island. They arrive there, only to sense danger and realize that King Orca had set an elk stampede to kill them utterly. Vanellope, Anna, and Judy save themselves, but Orca King betrays Jaguar and sends her to her death. Heartbroken, Anna, Vanellope, and Judy mourn for the loss of their friend, but continue on their journey anyway. They encounter tigers, who direct them through a blizzard as the way. They seem to be getting close, but unfortunately, they are attacked by two real orcas and narrowly escape.

Meanwhile, after realizing Anna was right, Elsa sails off to find Anna, Judy, and Vanellope. When they arrive, she apologizes for her selfishness and they team up to end Orca King's plan. As Vanellope and Judy fight off Freaky and Jones, alongside Elsa distracting the army, to no avail, Anna steals King Orca's staff and aims it at him, resulting in his demise, but Vanellope is carried into the sky. Judy, Anna and Elsa tempt to rescue her, and when the balloons pop, Anna rescues Vanellope. After that they return to their own homes and they promise never to forget each other.
