• misterwolf Plot: Howard Wilson is a mentally ill and diabetic patient of the Playtime Company's medical staff confined with the company's facility for treatment, often cared for by his daughter Casey, a Playtime Company employee who interns with the medical staff, and his wife Stella, a psychologist who also works for the company. While he wishes to be free from his confinement, he states that he is better off staying, as he knows the seriousness of his condition, though Casey hopes to eventually have him released due to her desire to have her family back together and partly because of her rebellious nature.

• misterwolf Theodore Grambell, a Playtime Company security staff member and Casey's godfather, becomes disillusioned with Howard's release continuing to be denied by the company's CEO, Elliot Ludwig. He is also asked to keep the company's dirty secrets to himself, or Ludwig will forbid Casey and Stella from ever seeing Howard again. Grambell is enraged when he learns that Ludwig has no intention of letting Howard go and that he has chosen him to become the creature that the company's toy, Huggy Wuggy, will represent. When all employees return home, Grambell texts Casey, informing her of Ludwig's true intentions.

• misterwolf However, Casey and Grambell arrive on their shifts too late when Howard is reported missing by the medical staff; they head to the room for experiments and witness Ludwig greeting a now-amnesiac and transformed Howard as Huggy Wuggy. Much to Casey and Grambell's horror, Huggy is manipulated into slaughtering test subjects, eventually eating the bodies which forces Ludwig to contain him and order his death. Huggy manages to escape the facility when Casey stops the scientists from executing him, and she and Grambell give chase when they realize that he needs to stay in the facility alive or dead. Some of the security staff follow close behind them.

• misterwolf Despite killing several staff members in self-defense, Huggy stops at his family's house, which he scarce recognizes and where Casey and Grambell find him; although Ludwig demands Grambell kills Huggy, he disobeys and has him tranquilized. Knowing Ludwig will have Huggy killed, Stella allows herself to be transformed into a creature representing the Kissy Missy toy in order to convince him to spare her husband. Although it is successful and Ludwig does reluctantly spare Huggy's life, he fires Grambell and has him transformed into an anthropomorphic purple cat as punishment for defying his orders and sends him to the facility's orphanage, Playcare.

• misterwolf Leith Pierre, Ludwig's second-in-command, is informed of Ludwig's illegalities and is confided in by Casey, who asks him to keep a close eye on their boss. Pierre agrees when he discovers that Huggy is Howard. Huggy and Kissy are trained to become mascots and to greet children who visit, much to Casey's dismay. Ludwig, who did not know Casey's true connections to Howard and Stella, realizes that Huggy and Kissy are Casey's parents, and orders her capture, indicating his intentions to transform her into a mini-huggy. However, she breaks free when grabbed, and she intentionally falls into Playcare.

• misterwolf Casey is saved by CatNap, whose memories were not taken and who instantly recognized his goddaughter. Upon waking up, Casey finds herself in Home Sweet Home, where a manifestation of CatNap serves her breakfast; after she finishes eating, Casey tells CatNap about Ludwig's attempt to transform her, and he agrees to help her free Huggy and Kissy. Ludwig's staff arrives and CatNap is forced to kill them when they try to take Casey away. CatNap tells her to run straight for the train, and when she arrives, CatNap follows her close behind and gives her the code. The train takes Casey back upstairs where she confronts Ludwig with a gun she had grabbed from one of the staff members, and subsequently takes him hostage. Huggy ambushes Casey and a chase ensues, while Kissy, who recognized Ludwig and Casey, traps Ludwig in the train and sends him to Playcare.

• misterwolf Casey is cornered by Huggy, but as he is about to kill her, she manages to scream the words "I'm your kid, Dad!"; Huggy receives flashbacks of his life as Howard when he hears those words, and he finally regains his senses and embraces Casey, with the remaining staff and medics watching as they realize how misunderstood Huggy was. Huggy tells Casey he cannot go home with her, but instead offers to let her live in the facility, which she accepts. Before the end credits roll, Casey, Huggy and Kissy reunite as a family, while Ludwig arrives in Home Sweet Home, where he is confronted by CatNap and tortured by him as punishment for his crimes.
