Together with their lipstick-tipped sword and aerosol can of musk, they set out to save the chickens from the fox and the farmer from the bad guys.

Barbara Caruso's narration seems a bit stilted at first but smoothes out quickly as she finds her rhythm. Caruso uses a distinctly different voice for each character.
