Charlotte's Web 2: Wilbur's Great Adventure.The film opens in springtime, about a year after Charlotte has died. Her three daughters, Nellie, Aranea, and Joy, are now in the stages of adolescence, with Wilbur serving as a companion and mentor. During this time, Wilbur befriends Cardigan, a newborn lamb that is looked down upon by his siblings and the younger sheep of his flock because he has black wool. Wilbur takes him under his wing and shows him the farm, the ways of animal life, and dangers to look out for. However, after only a few weeks, Homer Zuckerman suddenly sells him to another farmer, so Wilbur, along with Nellie, Aranea, Joy, and Templeton the Rat, set out to visit him and make sure he is safe. On the journey to visit Cardigan, however, Wilbur is hungry so he gets some grapes which make him look purple. Some bark from the trees comes and lands on his head. This makes him look like a wild pig. A near hit by a truck then reveals that two other guys have now seen him. This makes it hard for him to visit Cardigan. Meanwhile, an evil fox named Farley comes and steals a hen from the barn, and Wilbur is blamed. Farley comes back, steals Cardigan, and plans to eat him. Wilbur now must save him, and does so by trapping Farley in a "pig web". Nellie, Aranea, and Joy spin the word "fox" in a spider web, and Fern arrives just in time to save Wilbur. Farley, while not shown, is probably disposed of. Aranea and Joy decide to stay with Cardigan, and the film ends as Wilbur has to babysit Templeton's children. He had promised to do so earlier when Templeton had to get Whim out of some brambles bushes, which also makes him look like a wild pig.
