Cabin Fever is episode 50 of Season 1 of Sonic Boom, the CGI comedy series made by OuiDo! Productions with Sega of America. It premiered in the United States on 31 October 2015 on Cartoon Network.
Synopsis
Amy has written a play starring thinly disguised versions of her friends, and they were never meant to see it. Unfortunately a thunderstorm traps everyone at her house, where her guests ignore her planned activities, demolish the snacks, break her glass unicorn and get bored, and boredom sends Sonic snooping through her drawers.
A Rose Without Thorns stars the wonderful Annie Rose, surrounded by an egomaniac called Sonar, a dim strongman called Shoulders, a jumpy Taylor and a conspiracy-obsessed Twigs. Amy is furious they read it, they are furious about how she sees them, and the house splits into rival forts. The stand-off ends in a giant pillow fight.
That clears the air between the others, but it leaves Amy’s home in ruins, and she storms out, smashing through her own door. Realising they were the problem, her friends make it up to her that night by staging her play in the village centre, with Dave as Annie. The audience loves it, Amy takes a bow, and then another storm hits and everyone runs back to her house.
