Summary
"Set after the series finale of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, Bloo (Keith Ferguson) has developed some kindness since his first time at Foster's until he accidentally overheard a meeting with Mr. Herriman, Frankie, Wilt, Eduardo, and Coco that they had had enough of his pranks and voted him to get him kicked out of Foster's, especially Mac. He chooses to run away, thinking his friends can never forgive him.

During his self-exile, Bloo first meets a teenage girl named Emily (Hailee Steinfeld), an inspiring filmmaker who's a friendly girl, and discovers that her father is Kip Snip, a Hollywood agent to whom she was under contract. She befriends Bloo as they travel to Los Angeles to pursue their dreams. Along the way, Bloo discovers that he has a secret legacy and an epic destiny greater than anyone could have imagined.

As things look grim, Berry returns and teams up with Terrence, Duchess, Bendy, and Kip Snip to seek revenge. Mac, Wilt, Eduardo, Coco, and Frankie regret hurting Bloo's feelings and, with help from Jackie, Goo, Mr. Herriman, and Madame Foster, must venture across the country to find Bloo and rekindle their friendship."
