Set against the backdrop of a snowstorm on Easter Eve, three young girls fear for the Easter Bunny's ability to deliver baskets. Unbeknownst to them, a brown rabbit rushes back to a network of tunnels where the Easter Bunny resides, informing him of the storm's impact on travel. The situation creates a sense of urgency and concern among the rabbits as they ponder their options for ensuring that children around the world still receive their Easter treats.
