Description: Shaun the Sheep, a mischievous member of his flock at Mossy Bottom Farm, grows tired of the same old routine. To break the monotony, he tricks the farmer into falling asleep by repeatedly counting sheep. However, the caravan where the farmer rests accidentally rolls away, taking him to the city. Bitzer, the farmer’s loyal dog, chases after him. After a blow to the head, the farmer ends up in a hospital and is diagnosed with amnesia. He wanders into a hair salon and, recalling his shearing skills, cuts a celebrity’s hair. The celebrity loves the result, and the farmer becomes a popular stylist known as “Mr. X.”
Back at the farm, life becomes difficult without the farmer. Shaun decides to head to the city, and the rest of the flock follows. Disguised as humans, they search for the farmer. However, Shaun is captured by Trumper, an overzealous animal-control worker. Shaun reunites with Bitzer in the animal lock-up, and with the help of a homeless dog named Slip, they escape while trapping Trumper inside. They eventually find the farmer, but he fails to recognize them, leaving them disheartened.
Shaun, Bitzer, and the flock take shelter in a dark alley, where they find evidence of the farmer’s memory loss, renewing their hope. They devise a plan to put the farmer to sleep again, return him to the caravan using a pantomime horse (actually the flock in disguise), and hitch the caravan to a bus heading back to Mossy Bottom. While the plan initially succeeds, Trumper escapes and relentlessly pursues them, determined to stop them at all costs.
