Plot
In this parody of fairy tales, Stimpleton and Renwaldo are staving to death in the Kingdom of Fie. Ren gives Stimpy a chigger to exchange for food, which Stimpy trades to the Village Idiot for two magical singing blocks of cheese. The Village Idiot then demands that Stimpy proved his worth in a "battle of witlessness". Stimpy wins the cheeses via his stupidity, but Ren tells Stimpy to bury them as the cheese is not ripe. Stimpy wakes up an ogre and gives him the cheese. Ren and Stimpy try to steal the cheese, but are caught by the ogre. Stimpy trades his kidneys for the cheese. When Ren and Stimpy try to eat the cheese, the two cheese blocks turn into princesses with churning milk curds for faces, whom Ren and Stimpy are forced to marry to "live unhappily ever after".
