Bully Boogie / Here Thar Be Dwarves is the 30th episode of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. It first aired July 23, 2004 on Cartoon Network.

Plots

Bully Boogie

Grim is still mad at Boogie, his middle school bully, because he made his life miserable. To spite Grim, Boogie takes Billy to the underworld. Mandy insists Grim help her get Billy back. Grim tries to trick Boogie but it all backfires. Than they decide to have a scare-off and Grim wins and Boogie is seen poofed to an odd world with very strange creatures. So they did not get Billy back but Grim is happy with his pride.

Here Thar Be Dwarves

Despite warnings from friends and family, Billy decides to go on a picnic. As Billy was walking in the woods, Yogi Bear and Boo-Boo appeared and tried to steal his basket. Billy escaped from the two bears into the cave, where he stumbles upon a giant door of the mushroom lair of the dwarves. The Dwarves at first thought that Billy is elf and take him to the Dwarven closet of cleaning supplies where he meets the Dwarven king, Beardbottom. King Beardbottom, after some examination, realizes that Billy is a human. The King Beardbottom tells Billy that dwarves are in war with elves and tells him the story about the origins of the war.

After the battle for the "Mid-Western Earth", the winners got a monopoly on the fast-food industry, and they had a meeting to divide it. The humans got hamburgers, the druids got salads, the halflings got chicken nuggets, the Elves got mushrooms, and the Dwarves got cookies. But the Elves tricked the Dwarves and they eventually took the cookie industry, leaving Dwarves with the mushrooms. Of course, the Dwarves changed their minds and they want the cookie industry back. King Beardbottom asked Billy for help: Dwarves can't attack because of the "Dwarf-repelling force-field," and they need him to dress like an elf and infiltrate the "evil Elf cookie factory", so he could turn off the "main shield power generator." Everybody would win: Dwarves would take back the cookie industry and Billy can take all the cookies he can eat, which he happily accepts.

When Billy infiltrated the cookie factory and turned off the shield generator, the Dwarves attacked. After a long battle (which was blocked and replaced by shots of a koala bear because "it's too violent for our younger viewers"), nobody won. Billy solved the conflict between elves and dwarves (by using an analogy to life being a digestive system, and comparing the Dwarves and Elves metaphorically to peas and mashed potatoes), and they realized that they should stop with the fighting. They united their fast food sectors - Dwarves put their mushrooms into the Elves' cookies, and "Mushookies - cookies that taste like your cat," are born.

End Credits

A little girl tires of eating the same old cookies day after day. Then the sergeant from Here Thar Be Dwarves appears, introducing Mushookies to the little girl. After a taste test, she declares that "they taste just like my cat!".
