Plot summary
Elmo loves his fuzzy, blue blanket, and would never let anything happen to it. However, a tug-of-war with his friend Zoe, sends his blanket to a faraway land, and Elmo in hot pursuit. Facing life without his cherished blanket, Elmo musters all of his determination and courage and heads off on an action-packed rescue mission that plunges him into Grouchland, a place full of grouchy creatures, stinky garbage, and the villainous Huxley. Along the way, Elmo learns an important lesson about sharing, realizing that he was selfish with his friend and responsible for what happened.

The Pesties
The Pesties, named M'Lady, Little Ricky, Tanya, Lyle, Howard and Sydney, are the willing minions of Bug and Huxley in the movie. They always do what they're asked but with their own particular sense of style. They sing, dance, do lots of grunt work&mdash;but mostly they love to sunbathe. It's hard to tell just how long they've been with Huxley, but as long as the food is good, they'll probably hang around.
