Meygan is asked to be the volunteer for a magic show, and she wishes for everyone to go away because she is annoyed. However, her wish comes true, and she finds she's the only one at the carnival. Then Meygan gets frightened by the many clowns and the fact the ride she always wanted to go to never ends now.

Once inside the ride, she spoils it for the others by telling them everything is fake. Then, Cloe, Sasha, and Yasmin turn into monsters, and Jade realizes she must escape the ride. Jade runs away, being chased by monsters, but discovers that the monsters can only move when she does, and she distracts them with a dance. Then she runs away from the monsters and gets back to the doom buggy, screaming and closing her eyes. Finally, Cloe, Yasmin, and Sasha, who are humans again, comfort Jade, and the ride is over.
Bratz Kidz: Fairy Tales
editThe second Bratz Kidz film contains excerpts from fairy tales. As Cloe, Jade, Sasha and Yasmin put on a show about fairy tales for the kindergartners at their school, they think the characters they are supposed to be playing—as Rapunzel, Snow White, Red Riding Hood and Cinderella are all wimps—they could deal with the situations way better. Suddenly, a Chadwick Grimm appears and tells them off for dissing the fairy tale heroines. The girls are sent to Fairy Tale World to prove they could handle the situations better themselves. After Cloe as Rapunzel tries to escape the tower, Jade as Snow White tried to live with The 7-D's, Sasha as Red Riding Hood tries outsmarting the cunning wolf and Yasmin as Cinderella tries to escape her ugly, evil sisters and get to the ball, they realize they shouldn't misjudge someone before they have spent a day in their shoes.
Characters
