The Biker Mice have to stop Limburger from using an invention of Karbunkle's to steal land from fictional places in Shakespeare's plays.

This episode contains examples of

  • Birthday Episode: The episode takes place on Charley's birthday and even has a brief scene of the Biker Mice celebrating it.
  • Chekhov's Gun: The book of fairy tales that the Biker Mice give Charley for her birthday ends up put to good use when Charley imprisons Limburger, Karbunkle, and Greasepit inside it.
  • Man in a Kilt: When everyone ends up in the world of Macbeth, Greasepit, the Biker Mice, and Limburger's goons all wear kilts. Charley is also shown wearing a kilt as well.
  • Shout-Out:
    • When Limburger, Karbunkle, and Greasepit end up in the world of The Three Little Pigs at the end of the short, they are dressed the way the pigs are depicted in the animated short from 1933 and Greasepit quotes Porky Pig's catchphrase of stuttering "That's all folks" before Limburger pulls him behind the curtains.
    • As the episode revolves around Shakespeare's plays, it is also inevitable that references to Shakespeare's plays would be made. The plays the Biker Mice end up in include Hamlet, Julius Caesar, Richard III, Romeo and Juliet, and Macbeth.
