Tom the Bodyguard (Episode)

Tom the Bodyguard is the 6th episode of Season 4 of Talking Tom and Friends.

Synopsis
When a mad fan threatens Talking Angela's comeback concert, Talking Tom decides the best choice to be her bodyguard is: Tom!

Plot
Angela prepares a prop for an upcoming concert; a UFO will drop confetti on her on the final song. She views positive reviews about her new style, only to find a review that insulted Angela, claiming to be Bad Guy with the Pie. He threatens to throw a pie in her face on the concert.

So, Tom tries looking for bodyguards online, but the available bodyguards are either unconvincing or expensive. So, Tom decides to be her bodyguard.

To practice his defending skills, he instructs Hank to throw pies at a watermelon while Tom would try to protect it, but Hank hits the melon. Tom sits down on a chair but Hank pushes him away before a canoe comes crashing from the ceiling. Hank explains that he is just aware of his surroundings.

So, Tom tries to use Hank's strategy. He finds a suspicious person on the concert hall's balcony, but finds that it was really a catapult for throwing pies disguised with an overcoat. Tom manages to deactivate it, but triggers it by leaning on a lever. However, a muscular man leaps on the stage and saves Angela at the last minute.

Meanwhile, Ginger agrees to help Ben remove the anti-tech bracelet, and in exchange Ben would take Ginger to see an inappropriate movie. Ben agrees. Ginger uses painful methods to remove the bracelet, even making Ben stick his hand in boiling chocolate, but nothing works.

Backstage, Tom apologises to Angela for launching the pie, but Angela reveals that she had replaced him with the man who saved him earlier, named Dirk Shield. Angela tells Tom to guard the concert props instead. Ginger takes Ben to the concert for other ways to destroy the bracelet. Ben had had enough of the painful methods, so they tussle and knock over a box of props, only to find it was full of pie tins, implying that the UFO was filled with pies.

Tom rushes onstage, only to be grabbed by Dirk Shield. However, he notices that his hands were covered in flour, leading him to conclude that Dirk Shield was the Bad Guy with the Pie. However, he was too late; the pies fell onto Angela. Tom was shocked and hurried over, and Angela decides to get on her feet and continue to sing anyway. Meanwhile, Ginger uses the speaker's plug to electrocute the bracelet, causing the speakers to explode, launching Ginger, Ben and Dirk Shield into the air. Ben and Ginger land on Dirk Shield, and Ginger admits defeat, as he could not destroy the bracelet.
