Synopsis
Early in the morning, Rubble & Crew are out in the lot of the Drive-In movie theater, building a dance floor for the Builder Cover Partner Boogie. Once it's finished, Auntie Crane and Grandpa Gravel arrive, admiring their hard-work before Grandpa Gravel takes to the stage, showing off his dance moves. Impressed, Charger asks to be his dance partner after Mix suggests he participates in the Partner Boogie. Grandpa Gravel hesitates, but happily accepts and teaches Charger, who worries he won't be able to perform well, how to dance with a little song and some help from the disco ball's lights. However, while the two are practicing, Wingsy takes an interest in the disco ball and clings onto it, causing it to crash onto the dance floor before rolling away into town.
As the pups split up into groups of two, the runaway disco ball makes it way toward Camila and Shopkeeper Shelley, who are practicing their dance moves. Fortunately, Charger arrives just in time to swing it away with his claw, sending it all the way over toward City Hall. As the disco ball heads for Mr. Ducky Doo, who is also practicing for the Partner Boogie, Charger swings it away once again, sending it off once more. After the crew reunite, Charger accidentally gives Mix the construction solution to their problem, in which, much like a dance partner, Wheeler becomes Charger's vehicle partner. The pups then follow the runaway disco ball into the skate park where Charger gives it one final swing into the back of Wheeler's dump truck.
With the disco ball now secure, Rubble & Crew return to the Bark Yard where Auntie Crane and Grandpa Gravel supply them with wood cut from the Saw Station for the dance floor and a "Wingsy-proof" hook for the disco ball. However, after the crew finish repairing the floor, Charger notices the disco ball is now scratched and dirty and worries that he won't be able to use it to dance with Grandpa Gravel. Fortunately, Wheeler is on the case and gives it a quick cleaning with his sponge before Rubble hangs it back up.
Later on, once evening approaches, several residents gather for the Partner Boogie, which kicks off with Mayor Greatway and Mr. Ducky Doo showing off their moves. Camila and Shopkeeper Shelley go next, making Charger a bit anxious for his turn with Grandpa Gravel. However, after receiving some reassurance from Grandpa Gravel, Charger takes to the floor and dances with him in perfect synchronization using their song from earlier and the disco lights. Afterwards, Rubble and his family all celebrate with a "Wiggle and Wag", sharing a laugh together as Wingsy clings onto the disco ball once again, dancing along to the beat.
