Plot
Winnie The Pooh finds an old metal spring, and decides to give it to his best friend Piglet as a best friend gift. After Pooh gives it to Piglet, Rabbit and Tigger tell Piglet that he should surprise Pooh with a bunch of hunny. The three go around the Hundred Acre Wood and gather up every last hunny pot for Pooh. Once gathered, the hunny pots break, and the hunny is too dirty. Tigger says that since there is no hunny left, they should go to "The Land Of Milk And Hunny". The next day, Rabbit, Piglet, and Tigger go on a long journey thru the wood, and the jungle. After asking a gorilla for help, and every time Rabbit says "The Land of Milk And Hunny", he gets trampled by a bunch of excited little purple Heffalumps. When they finally get to "The Land of Milk And Hunny", they find that it is inhabbited by a bunch of Piglets. The Piglets take Piglet's spring that Pooh gave him, claiming that Piglet has brought the "Sacred Tail", and put it on the bottom of a giant Piglet statue, and the statue begins to spit out hunny into a fountain. The Piglets then make Piglet their king, Rabbit their Chamberlin, and Tigger their Court Jester. Rabbit teaches a group of Piglets how to garden, while Tigger teaches another group how to bounce. Later that night, while sitting at his thrown, Piglet sadly tells Tigger and Rabbit that he doesn't want to be king, and wants to go home. Tigger points out to Piglet that here at the "Land Of Milk and Honey", they get whatever they want. When Piglet heres this, and sees a giant statue of Tigger and a giant statue of Rabbit, he tells them that they're not being very good friends. Rabbit and Tigger realize that they're being spoiled, and tell Piglet that they're sorry. They decide to sneak out once the Piglets are asleep, with the "Sacred Tail". When they remove the spring, it causes a volcano of hunny to erupt, and the Piglets run frantically to Piglet and ask what they should do. Piglet tells them to quickly knock down the statues of Rabbit and Tigger, which they do, and they're saved from the overflowing hunny. Piglet tells the Piglets that he's sorry, but he can't be king. He looks at a Piglet in the crowd and tells him that he can be the new king. The Piglet eagerly excepts, and thanks Piglet. Piglet, Rabbit, and Tigger then say goodbye to all the Piglets, and go back to the Hudred Acre Wood.

Meanwhile, Pooh can't find Piglet, Rabbit, Tigger, or any hunny anywhere. He concludes that they've been stolen by a burgular. Pooh burgular proofs his house, and that night, Piglet, Rabbit, and Tigger return from "The Land of Milk and Hunny", and go into Pooh's house through his opened back door. Piglet gives Pooh some hunny, and Pooh tells Piglet that he is a very good friend, ending the episode.
