Line 46:

After the hero sabotages the gang's attempt to cross a musical bridge, they fall into a pit where sticky material becomes their zombie-like doppelgängers. They escape through a ''[[Super Mario]]''-like environment and go to the house of a toy dog, where they are set up for a trap to eat [[crumpet]]s with sleeping powder. Mac does not eat the crumpets and is able to save the others. As they try to escape, they discover that the policeman, hero, and dog are all controlled by a single face — World, the voice that tended to Frankie — who can animate and control seemingly anything he latches onto. World is trapped on an apple and the gang leaves it at a desert, but it latches on a horse and gallops off to the castle. Having been secretly hiding inside the horse, the gang finds Frankie and attempts to save her. However, Frankie reveals that she was staying of her own free will and is happy to be away from the work at Foster's. The friends then plead with Frankie to come home, insisting that they need her to take care of them. She believes their pleas to be selfish and furiously storms off. World then gasses them and they fall asleep.

When the gang awakens, they find themselves in a fake version of Foster's created by World, who shrank them into it. After Frankie hears their voices calling to her and finds them shrunk, World becomes upset and accuses Frankie of planning to leave him alone in the toy box forever. She calms him down enough to befriend and unshrink the gang. Suddenly, Mr. Herriman storms into the room, having himself gotten into the toy box to look for Frankie, andthen angrily berates World by bringing and keeping Frankieher in the toy box, and declares to take Frankieher and the others out of the toy box and leave Worldhim by himself, hoping Worldhe will think about the actions he has taken. Becoming distraught and enragedoutraged by Mr. Herriman’sHerriman's intentions, the entire world crumbles and falls apart as World pursues the gang until it is nothing but a white void. After to a long and hard retreat and arriving at the entrance of the box, World becomes furious and turns into a [[chimera (mythology)|chimera]]-like creature to attack them all. The gang manages to escape the toy box, after which Frankie climbs out as well and tries to convince everyone to let World out of the box, explaining all his actions were done out of fear of being alone. Herriman yields, admitting to his misjudgment of Frankie and accepting World's release from the box. World adapts to the new environment and lives as a stuffed rag doll in the home Frankie made for him. Mr. Herriman issues a decree to divide the chores between the imaginary friends and thus give Frankie a break from her job. After all the chores are finished, all the imaginary friends in the house are free to travel in and out of the toy box, where they enjoy themselves.

During the post-credits scene, Madame Foster, who was away on her vacation, returns only to be greeted by an empty house and wonders where everyone is.
