Secret Cupet is the fourth episode of the third season of Littlest Pet Shop and the fifty-sixth episode overall.
Overview[]
Russell is determined to put a stop to a secret pet "cupid," but ends up under her spell instead. Meanwhile, Blythe tries to sort through her feelings for Josh Sharp, her green-eyed, brunette secret crush.
Summary[]
Blythe and Youngmee are carrying bake sale goods through the school grounds. Blythe looks up from the tray she is carrying, and notices Josh Sharp is in front of them. She surprises Youngmee by telling her to hide because of Josh. This makes Youngmee confused, because Blythe has a crush on Josh. Blythe replies back with the argument of whenever she's around Josh, something embarrassing happens, then he says hi, and she has no idea what to say, so she laughs a "stupid, goofy laugh". Youngmee states that it is "embarrassing", yet she replies that it cannot be that bad.
They try to sneak by Josh from behind the bushes, but Blythe, not looking where she was going, slips on a mud puddle - even though Youngmee tried to warn her - and slides in front of Josh, while she accidentally tosses the cupcakes into the air. Josh comes over to say hi and Blythe laughs her "stupid, goofy laugh". Josh walks away as Youngmee walks up to Blythe stating, "It is that bad."
It's Valentine's Day at Littlest Pet Shop, as Penny, Minka, Pepper, and Zoe are watching love couples from the window display with Russell right behind them. Penny then states that love really is up in the air as she proceeds to point out the various couples outside the window.
Russell, Sunil, and Vinnie, however, teases the girls by saying they like non-romantic movies, which involves Sci-Fi Action and Comedy. Penny tells Russell that someday, he will experience how love is, but Russell truly doubts that it will ever happen. When the pets enter the day camp area, Russell sees the new camper, a goat named Baa-Baa Lou, eating one of the drapes. Baa-Baa Lou explains to the pets that he fell in love right before he came to the Pet Shop, claiming that he remembered it like it was romantic and it was about approximately five minutes ago. He starts to tell his story to the pets in flashback style. It shows him and his owner walking through the park on their way to LPS. He passes a pink pig, saying, "I didn't even notice her." Then it zooms in on a bush, where a pair of eyes peek out. Baa-Baa Lou states he heard music playing, turns to face the female pig, and falls in love with her.
Penny states that a mysterious pet who goes by the name "Secret Cupet" lurks around somewhere spreading love whenever she goes, but Russell claims that it isn't romantic, but rather dumb.
After Blythe's humiliating gesture at school, Youngmee asked her about sending a love letter to Josh, since, according to the internet, she demands Blythe to write down her true feelings to Josh. Blythe wasn't sure about this at first, but Youngmee states that rather than sending the mail to Josh, she wants Blythe to throw the mail in the trash. Blythe eventually started writing her love letter for Josh, with her true feelings just being math quips, such as 'a true square root' and 'One plus one is two, but when I see you adding numbers, my insides turn to goo'.
Since Baa-Baa Lou was acting very strange, Russell decided to find the Secret Cupid, whom he says "is just some sort of love vigilante who must be stopped". He dons his Cyril McFlip disguise and the other pets sing a small portion of the Cyril McFlip song. However, Russell cuts them off, asking which of them is with him.
Sunil and Vinnie decide to join Russell, claiming they do not want to end up like Baa-Baa Lou (who was dancing around doing ballet). Russell comes up with a plan to capture the Secret Cupid: Penny, who wanted to go with Russell to meet the Secret Cupid, will be his potential girlfriend while Russell will be her potential boyfriend. Within the process, if the Secret Cupid character shows up, Sunil and Vinnie will jump in and capture it with their nets. As Sunil questions how to recognize the Secret Cupet, Vinnie loosely says that the Secret Cupet should be seen by its red hands, much to Russell's dismay.
After finishing her love letter for Josh and sealing it in a red envelope, Youngmee leaves to replace the fundraiser cupcakes that are ruined back at school. While Blythe realizes her written letter can lead to a direct chat with Josh, the pets tell Blythe to take a walk around the park with them and Blythe agrees as she hastily, but not quite, throws the red envelope to the trash.
At Downtown City Park, Blythe, out of curiosity, asked the pets about the wig, mustache and the nets. Russell said that they're were using this in trying out new looks, while Sunil and Vinnie said that they were using those to catch butterflies. Russell's plan officially got into motion, with he and Penny having a fake romantic conversation, much to Blythe's confusion. As Blythe walks off to sit on the bench, Russell and Penny resumes with their conversation, as Penny asks Russell on how amazing she is. This results the 'Secret Cupet' to start singing from the bushes. Russell hears it and proceeds to find the source of the voice which actually belongs to Sugar Sprinkles.
Sugar Sprinkles says that he may have got her, but she has also got him too. She proceeds to play her song on him, causing Russell to go lovestruck, and pushes him out from the bush. Russell then targets Penny Ling due to her being the first pet he sees as his loved one. As Sugar Sprinkles walks out of the bushes, Sunil and Vinnie jump in to capture the Sugar Sprinkles, but they end up capturing Russell instead. Penny, unbeknownst about his altered behavior, asks Russell if they were still pretending, to which Russell states that they don't need words because they got the 'language of love'.
Blythe got a call from Youngmee, who tells her that Josh was seen skating in the park, and that he's skating towards Blythe as well. Realizing this, Blythe picks up the pets hides behind the tree and announces that their park visit is over.
As Blythe and the pets ran back to LPS, Minka shows up, surprising Blythe. Roger then enters the shop and tells Blythe that he happens to find the red envelope since it wasn't in the trash, much to Blythe's horror. Blythe finds a mailbox and asks Minka to get inside and find a red envelope. Minka found the letter and gave it to Blythe. Unfortunately, Minka inadvertently gives Blythe a green envelope and states that she's red-green colorblind. Blythe then noticed that her written letter in a red envelope was taken by the mailman.
At day camp, Russell tries to seduce Penny by giving her some flowers. Penny thanks Russell for the flowers and tries to walk away. Russell appears right in front of her and gives Penny another gift: a heart-shaped box full of strawberry flavored bamboo. Penny tries to walk away yet again, but Russell, with a rose in his mouth, decided to "tango" Penny, and even talk to her using Spanish, which is the language of love. Russell tries to kiss her, but Penny backs away until she hits an armchair. She cautiously asks Russell if he could take a break from the romance for a while. Russell responds to the fact that "love takes no vacations" and kisses her arm. Penny Ling says it is too bad since she says that she needs one right now. She then runs off, accidentally knocking Russell to the ground. After stating that Penny's playing hide and seek, Russell starts to chase after her.
Meanwhile, Blythe brings Zoe to get the letter from the mailman. However, Zoe mentions that chasing a mailman is such a cliché, yet she's willing to give it a shot. Unfortunately, when she runs up to the mailman, he pulls out a squeaky toy to distract her.
Penny ran over Sunil, Vinnie, Minka and Pepper as Russell bounces towards her. Sunil blames the girls for showing Russell their romantic notions, but Pepper states that she and Minka are more fed up than them regarding 'Don Juan Russell'. Sunil and Vinnie decide to ask directly to Sugar Sprinkles in nullifying the love song effects off of Russell. However, they get caught by Sugar Sprinkles' love spell and target Minka and Pepper (Vinnie to Minka and Sunil to Pepper), much to the girls' shock. They decide to hide behind the toy box with Penny and discuss the situation, but Russell, Sunil, and Vinnie surprise them from inside the box with tango tops and maracas, scaring Penny, Minka, and Pepper off.
Penny, Pepper, and Minka thought that they lost these guys once they hid in the dumbwaiter, but when they got out, they ended up seeing a disco ball above the ceiling, as well as Russell, Sunil and Vinnie on their disco-styled suits, making the girls flee.
They end up seeing Sugar Sprinkles inside the Sweet Delights truck and tell her that her love spell has created "three monsters" since the love spell was out of control. The sprinkled cat states they will get used to it, but the boys climb into the truck, pop open their collars, and move their heads back and forth. Seeing this, Sugar Sprinkles states it is wrong and mentions she has never tried to reverse her love spell. She yells at the boys to snap out of it, but they just advance forward while they snap their fingers. Then Sugar Sprinkles gets an idea to sing her love song backwards. The spell breaks, as Russell, Sunil, and Vinnie drop the girls onto the floor in disgust.
The girls thank Sugar Sprinkles for preventing the boy pets in bugging them, but Russell tells Sugar Sprinkles that her love spell made him, Sunil, and Vinnie act ridiculous. Sugar Sprinkles decides that she likes the "lovey-dovey Russell" more, and tries to play her song on him, which makes him run away, prompting Sugar Sprinkles to chase him while the other pets chase Sugar Sprinkles down.
Meanwhile, Blythe finally gets her hands on that letter when the pets run over the mailman. However, she accidentally meets Josh again, and this time, Blythe escapes while Sugar Sprinkles hides behind the tree and conjures up her spell on Josh.
Back at Littlest Pet Shop, Blythe, Penny, Minka, and Pepper saw Baa-Baa Lou, who was with his girlfriend, while Russell surprisingly showed up, stating that these two "make a cute couple".
They don't get it, but Russell said he is taking Penny's advice and states that it would be a time and place for love.
- "Well, I suppose there is a time and place for love."
- —Russell Ferguson
Sugar Sprinkles shows up on what Russell literally said and pulled out her guitar, but Russell, in frustration, states that this isn't the time for love and confiscates Sprinkles' guitar, thus walking off on her while Sprinkles pulls out a spare from behind her back.
