The episode starts with Kirby, Fish, and Eli sitting in a movie theater, watching a zombie movie. Kirby is inspired to make his own horror movie and enters a video contest with the prize being a video camera. Kirby's dad is hesitant to let him enter the contest since they cannot afford a new video camera, but Kirby convinces him by saying that the video camera prize will make up for the one he accidentally broke.

Kirby then recruits his friends Fish and Eli to help him make the horror movie. The three of them decide to make a zombie flea movie, and they proceed to animate scenes of dogs being attacked by fleas and turning into zombies. Their movie is called "Flice of the Living Dead."

Although Kirby had initially wanted to make the movie all by himself, he eventually learns to appreciate and trust his friends' artistic input. Fish brings in his expertise with making realistic sound effects, and Eli's contributions to the plot twists are essential.

As the trio worked on the film, they face challenges such as lack of confidence in their vision and wanting to do things their way. They also deal with creative differences when Eli wants to add romance to the plot and Fish does not agree with that.

In addition to working on the film's storyline, Kirby's best friends manage to rope in additional help from their classmates to provide voiceovers for the animated characters. They even convince the school bully, Dawn, to participate.

With the deadline fast approaching, the trio realizes that they still need some missing pieces to complete the film. They head to the local pet store to find some inspiration and accidentally let out a bunch of fleas in the shop. The fleas bite Fish turning him into a zombie and he mysteriously starts appearing in the film, dressed as an evil scientist. The team figures out that they must stop the fleas from spreading and putting the entire town in peril.

The climax of the episode culminates in a final showdown, where Kirby, Fish, and Eli fight off the zombie fleas. They use the power of teamwork and their animations to outsmart the fleas and bring peace back to the town. The episode skillfully wraps up with the moment of truth- a short screening of “Flice of the Living Dead” at the school theater.
