Plot

A shooting star falls towards the Hundred Acre Wood While Winnie the Pooh, Darby, and Tigger are out in the Hundred Acre Wood one night, stargazing. They see the shooting star fall to the wood, but then can't find where it landed. The shooting star (or space rock) lands in Rabbit's garden and begins to put its effect on it. The next day, they get a call from Rabbit who claims his vegetables are giant. They discover the space rock and eat these giant vegetables and get super powers. Tigger becomes super strong after eating spinach, Pooh can see very far after eating a carrot, Buster can dig at super speed after eating a potato, and Darby can fly after eating a celery. They make new costumes and call themselves "super duper super sleuths" and continue to help others around the wood with their new superpowers. Lumpy and Roo are soon trapped on an island after their boat floats away and a large rock is blocking the way out. Their mothers call the sleuths to help find them. Meanwhile, Rabbit hosts a festival to show everyone what the space rock can do. While searching for Lumpy and Roo, the super sleuths come across a cliff that's too high to jump down, but they come up with a way to get down to the bottom by making a slide out of a log. While Rabbit prepares to make another vegetable grow, the rock suddenly stops glowing which also drains its powers. Also, the giant vegetables began shrinking back to their normal sizes which makes Rabbit realize that no more giant vegetables could also mean no more superpowers, so he goes to find the sleuths. Rabbit shows up to deliver the news just as Tigger tries to remove the rock but fails when his powers wear off. After Darby realizes that she can no longer fly, Pooh can no longer see very far, and Buster can't dig really fast anymore, they realize that their superpowers were all but gone but despite this, they come up with an idea of making a pulley system out of the wheels of their scooters and the vines that Darby saw earlier to lift up the rock long enough for Lumpy and Roo to get across. After rescuing them, all is well as they go back to being normal super sleuths.
