"Won Ton Bombs" is the 13th episode of Season 2 of Chowder.

Synopsis[]

Truffles and Chowder return from the market, bringing back an old man who was telling funny stories about Mung Daal. Mung frantically tries to get the old man to leave, but the man reveals himself as Lo Mein, Mung's former cooking master. He begins to tell a story about Mung's biggest failure: The Won Ton Bombs. (Mostly like chicken nuggets)

A thought bubble appears, causing a flashback to Mung's childhood, when he was an apprentice at Lo Mein's restaurant. A large group of ladies come to the restaurant and all order Won Ton Bombs in 12 minutes or less. Young Mung Daal tells Lo Mein that he'll make the dish. Lo Mein allows it, but tells him that if he fails, he's a failure for life. Young Mung tries to focus, but is distracted when Lo Mein introduces him to ladies. He was distracted, and used all the wrong ingredients while making the Bombs. Then he made a funny walk. The Bombs exploded. Not with flavor, but with something "much worse" that forced Lo Mein to run to the bathroom.

All of Marzipan City begins laughing at Mung, who wallows in his failure and climbs in a crevice to sulk. Chowder wishes that he could go back in time to fix things, making Mung think of a great idea. Chowder asks Lo Mein to tell the story again, and when the thought bubble appears, Mung and Chowder jump into it, transporting them back in time. Mung tells Chowder that they need to switch an order of good Won Ton Bombs with the bad ones that Young Mung makes. Chowder is distracted when he sees Mung's child self, and runs towards Young Mung. Mung grabs Chowder, telling him that if anything is altered in the past, it would change their present forever. When Young Mung finishes the bad Won Ton Bombs, Mung tells Chowder to do what he told him. Chowder removes all his clothes and runs around the room as a distraction while Mung switches the Bombs. Lo Mein tastes the Won Ton Bombs and tells Young Mung that those were the greatest Won Ton Bombs he'd ever tasted.

Once they return to the present, Lo Mein finishes his story, this time saying that Mung is the greatest chef that ever lived. And instead of laughing, the entirety of Marzipan City cheers and gives Mung a warm round of applause. Mung says he couldn't have done it without Chowder. Chowder says he couldn't have done it without Young Mung, revealing that he took Mung's child self with them to the present. Mung tries to remind Chowder about the consequences of altering the past, but says that "It was fun while it lasted." As all people in Marzipan City, the city itself and the cartoon disappears, a live-action sequence shows C.H. Greenblatt wearing a blue wig, drawing a picture in an animation studio; and is surprised by the audience watching him.

  • This episode is possibly a reference to WWE/TNA Star Jeff Hardy who's finisher is called the Swanton Bomb.
