While going to a science museum, Billy and Mandy's school bus breaks down in the middle of the desert. After digging for fossils, Billy, Mandy and Grim wander around and find an abandoned mine, where Billy is captured by a giant, mutant chicken. When Mandy and Grim go to rescue him, they find an underground laboratory from the days of the Cold War where mutant chickens were created. The mountain makes eruption, the chickens are roasted by lava, and the whole class obtains food so they do not have to resort to cannibalism.

After Billy's baseball team loses badly against Mindy's, Grim decides to coach them. Mandy is not allowed on the team, as Billy is reluctant to let girls play, although he does not realize Mindy is a girl too. Mandy puts on a baseball cap and, assuming the role of "Manfred", pitches for Billy's team anyway. With additional help from ghoulish players which played in the Underworld Little Leagues alongside Grim, Billy's team wins when Pud'n hits a home run.
