Plot[]
Gazpacho asks Mung Daal for his snail car because Mr. Fugu ordered grape Blast Raz fruit from Gazpacho. When everyone finally reaches the house, Mr. Fugu's driveway is under construction for random repairs. When Mung Daal and Shnitzel find out, they want to ditch out. Chowder, however is disappointed. But when Mung and Shnitzel aren't looking, Gazpacho secretly glues everybody (except Chowder) into their seats to avoid escape. Gazpacho says that if they help him deliver the fruit, Gazpacho will share the wealth he'll make from Fugu. The security of Mr. Fugu's F-shaped mansion says to take the detour, Route 17, to the back of Mr. Fugu's mansion. It is dangerous because the slightest bump or movement to the bombs will cause them to detonate and explode. They go through 60,000 miles of bumps, pot holes and end it in an active volcano.
When Gazpacho is sleeping, he is sleeptalking: "Lie to Mung, take all the money...use it to get...Mother to clown college...laugh at the suckers..." For the whole trip, Chowder has been singing the Route 17 theme song, which is a parody of Route 66. During a trip to a diner, Mung confronts Gazpacho of the deception, which the latter initially denies, but as soon as the volcano erupts, admits immediately after.
The moving lava drifts them to Mr. Fugu's house where the latter is waiting for his order. The snail car runs up the hill of the house, and into the sky, causing the Blast Raz to fly out. Gazpacho attempts to retrieve all of them, only to end up removing the pins. The group crash into the house, Mr. Fugu is pleased with the delivery and pays them. In a surprising twist, the Blast Raz do not explode. Mung questions why they didn't detonate before Mr. Fugu reveals that when Blast Raz fruit is sung to, they don't detonate. Ironically, Chowder saved the day by his terrible singing which Mung is surprised at as he mostly scolded Chowder for it. When Chowder begins to sing again, the group join in.
