Meanwhile, Paris is trying to serenade Juliet, but she isn’t interested. Nanette, however, forms a crush on Paris. She looks on and see the flat stone hippo ornament twitching and see Gnomeo’s hat. Excited, she runs down. Gnomeo is actually trying to carry out the attack and props the hippo’s mouth up and leaps over and aims his blaster at the Red’s prized tulips, when Juliet is in front of his crosshairs. She’s scared and realizes what he is aiming at and storms off. He tries to call after her but has no time and jumps back down the hippo’s mouth. With her mouth free, the hippo yells out, and the Reds are alerted. At the bottom, Benny asks what happened, and Gnomeo says there was something up with the blaster and just leaves. After Gnomeo leaves, Benny shoots the gun and sees that it is fine.
