Summary
In this Tom and Jerry crossover-collection film, an explorer Ted Shackleford (Tom Kane from The Powerpuff Girls) journeys to Africa hoping to recover an important artifact for his boss Mr. Bloomsberry, a museum director. Instead, however, he discovers an irrepressible little primate named Curious George (voiced by  Brianna Siddall),  along with Tom, Jerry and Tuffy, who stow away on the ship back to New York City in Chicago. There, Ted tries to stop plans to demolish the museum of Junior Bloomsberry, but he has his hands full taking care of his new friends, whose curiosity may turn out to be more beneficial than anyone had imagined.

Plot
A clumsy, mischievous, and curious chimpanzee named George lives in the jungles of Africa. His behavior amuses the other young jungle animals, but angers their parents; therefore George is left sad and alone, until yet he curiously first-time meet an adventurous  cat named Tom "Thomas", a brown mouse named Jerry and a gray mouse named Nibble "Tuffy" Mouse, and they became friends by one another.

Meanwhile, at the Bloomsberry Museum in New York Chicago, Ted Shackleford (the "Man with the Yellow Hat") (Tom Kane), a handsome 18-20 yr. old museum  employee, teaches schoolchildren about natural history, not realizing that his lectures bore them. Afterward, he has a talk with Red, as Maggie Dunlop, the beautiful school teacher, who admires him and for whom he has strong feelings. Later, Mr. Bloomsberry, the owner of the museum, tells Ted that he is pressed to close the museum by his son, Junior Bloomsberry , who wishes to build a parking garage  in its stead. This upsets Ted, who suggests, to revive the museum's popularity, that they obtain a statue  called the Lost Shrine  of Zagawa. Excited, Mr. Bloomsberry thinks to go himself as he had been prevented from doing by his son's birth, but finds that he is too old. Without thinking, Ted quickly volunteers to make the expedition. Mr. Bloomsberry accepts the idea and Ted prepares to leave for Africa. Junior, frustrated and secretly jealous of Ted, modifies his father's map of Africa to prevent Ted from finding the Shrine.

Ted subsequently goes to an outfitters' store, where he meet Spike and his son Tyke as the owners of the store, and was tricked into purchasing a yellow safari  outfit with a yellow hat on the grounds that "Yellow is the new Khaki " and therefore the new fashion for the other explorers. He then sets off for Africa, though embarrassed by his uniform. Ted arrives in Africa, and leads a group on a four-day hike to the lost shrine. George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy spot the yellow hat and, and mistaking it for a large banana, so they goes after it. Ted mistakes a rock for a rhinoceros, whereupon he shoots it with a tranquilizer dart, which ricochets and hits his guide, Edu, rendering the man unconscious and therefore slowing the expedition. The team sits down for a lunch break. Ted prepares a sandwich to eat, whereupon George suddenly takes his hat and attempts to eat it. When Ted notices this, George comes down from a tree to see him. They play "peek-a-boo", first meeting of Tom, Jerry and Tuffy. George returns the hat and Ted gives him his sandwich, he also give Tom a can of tuna, Jerry and Tuffy two pieces of cheese. When Ted reaches the end of Junior's sabotaged map, he encounters a miniature idol; believing this to be Zagawa itself, he gets depressed. He gets a call from Mr. Bloomsberry and sends a picture of the statue via cellphone. However, the angle of the picture causes Mr. Bloomsberry to believe the idol is much bigger. George takes the hat again to play "peek-a-boo" again, but Ted leaves, letting George keep the hat. Ted returns to the docks, while George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy quickly follow with the hat. George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy sneak onto the ship and rides to the city without Ted's knowledge.

Upon arrival, Ted rides home in a taxi. George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy follow Ted all the way to his apartment. When Ted finds George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy in his apartment, he is flabbergasted. Ivan, the doorman of the apartment building, follows George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy's scents, intending to enforce the apartment manager's rule against pets. Ivan searches the apartment, while George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy make it a game of "hide and seek". Ivan fails to find George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy, and therefore leave. Ted looks for George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy to find that they had been gone up to Ms. Plushbottom's (Kristina Nicoll) apartment, whose resident is a neighbor of Ted's. Ted worriedly climbs the fire escape outside the building to the top. He finds Tom, Jerry, Tuffy and George inside, where George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy has been painting colorful pictures on walls. When Ms. Plushbottom notices, she calls for Ivan, who races to her room. After a lot of commotion, Ivan sends Ted, Tom, Jerry, Tuffy and George away.

Upset, Ted wonders what he is going to do with George. Together, they walk to the Bloomsberry Museum, where crowds of people await to see the idol. He goes to his office, where he attempts to sort out his thoughts. Meanwhile, Junior is upset about the idol foiling his plans, and then notices that Ted is back. He decides to spy on him, and finds out the truth about the idol's size. Clovis, an inventor, knocks at Ted's door and gives Ted a bill for the exhibit of the Lost Shrine of Zagawa. Ted tells Mr. Bloomsberry the truth and reveals the 3-inch-tall idol. Junior then brings in the large crowd of people to see the idol. They start asking questions, which makes Ted nervous. Suddenly, he sees George, climbing a dinosaur exhibit, which starts to fall. He races after George (and knowing Tom and Jerry are fighting in disagree) as the dinosaur skeleton crumbles as Tom and Jerry take themselves to blame and their faults. Junior orders Ted out. Ted goes to a telephone booth to call Animal Control to get rid of George (without Tom, Jerry and Tuffy's knowledges).

That evening, with nowhere to sleep, Ted follows George to a park (which he ask Tom, Jerry and Tuffy to meet him there), where Ted lies down on a bench and sarcastically tells George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy how "great" it is. George, with voluteered help of Tom, Jerry and Tuffy, makes a pile of leaves under a large tree, where Ted joins them and becomes fascinated by the sight of a starry sky. George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy curiously observe fireflies; George eats them; spits them out in disgust; and causes Ted (except Tom, Jerry and Tuffy) to do the same. Tom, Jerry and Tuffy giggled as Ted and George acquire the green color on their tongues as a result, and therefore make a joke of showing each other this until George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy were asleep.

The next morning, Ted awakes in the park to find George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy gone. Hearing a commotion, he follows it to a zoo, where he finds George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy with Maggie and her class. Here, George is given his name by Ted, in honor of George Washington. Ted attempts to court Maggie, but is alerted to the fact that George is floating away, suspended by a bunch of balloons, and goes after him, with the help of Tom, Jerry and Tuffy, in the same way. They float around the city; George's balloons are suddenly popped, but Ted, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy catches him in time. Together, they flew above the city, held by Ted's balloons and using a kite to control their direction. When they float over the Bloomsberry museum, Ted holds out the idol and wishes it were big. This gives him an idea, for the fulfillment of which he took George, Tuffy, Jerry and Tom to Clovis' workplace for Clovis' help.

At Clovis' workshop, George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy discover a machine that can create a 40-foot-tall hologram of any object. Ted takes the machine to the museum, intending to use it to display the idol. En route George causes trouble (unnoticed by Ted, but amazingly notice by Tom, Jerry and Tuffy) by using the machine to project a giant version of himself cavorting around the city, provoking a re-enactment of scenes from King Kong.

Upon reaching the museum Ted shows the machine to Mr. Bloomsberry. Though Junior tries to convince his father that use of the projector is not honest, the older Bloomsberry sees it as the only way to save the museum. Desperate to build his parking garage, (with Tom, Jerry and Tuffy watch the ancient) Junior pours his latte into the projector and gives the rest to George so as to frame him for damaging it.

With the machine ruined, Ted is forced to admit the truth to the thousands of people waiting outside, including Maggie. Angry at him, Ted allows George to be taken away by Animal Control officers and be shipped back to Africa, saying "it's for the best." However, after Tom, Jerry and Tuffy angrily  ignored Ted and went following George in the animal control van, Ted's conscience convinces him that he has made a mistake or wronged his friends, as he confesses to Maggie. Maggie, rather than comfort Ted, tells him that his conscience accuses him rightly and should be obeyed. Ted therefore sets out to retrieve George and apologize to Tom, Jerry and Tuffy for his angry actions at George.

Ted attempts to jump his car onto the departing ship, but lands in the swimming pool of a cruise ship nearby. Hopping on to the retracting anchor chain of the cargo boat, he smashes in a porthole and, calling out Tom, Jerry and Tuffy, and with a well-placed blow to the cage's lock with a fire extinguisher, frees George. While he tries to explain to Tom, Jerry, Tuffy and George that their friendship is more important than any idol, Tom mentioned Ted about the machine explosion by looking through his cellphone camera (which he had  accidentally  forgot to turn it off during the beginning of the movie), cause by Junior, who is the only one framing on George. This angrys Ted (after realizing the truth). Once they all swam back to Chicago and into the museum, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy stop Junior and Mr. Bloomsberry before signing the contract, behind them, a furious Ted and angry George came upon showing Mr. Bloomsberry the ancient recorded-on Tom's cellphone camera. Afterwards, an angry Mr. Bloomsberry grounds Junior for framing on little George by his actions, but Tom also mentioned him that he is jealous of Ted and his  relationship  to George, and which makes Mr. Bloomsberry punished him even more by kindly-asking-ordering Ted toring up his precious Parking Garage Contract and George throws it on the fire (while Junior first-time begs), and was never been seen again. Aftermath, Tom call the poilce to arrest Juinor for almost wrecking the museum, while the angry townspeople- including a disapointed Maggie and the Animal Controllers booed at him (after Mr. Bloomsberry mentioned everyone about Junior's cruel ancient to George). Tom, Jerry, Tuffy, Mr. Bloomsberry, George and Ted will never forgive Junior.

After Mr. Bloomsberry apologizes to Ted and giving his job back, suddenly before celebrating in victory, a beam of sunlight (on the sunrise) passes on the tiny statue in Ted's back pocket, and creates a pictogram which George, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy notice, displaying the location of the larger version of itself. Ted then realizes the true meaning of an ancient writing he saw back in Africa ("Turn your eye to the light. Go from blindness to sight"), which means that he is supposed to hold the small statue up to the sun. Ted, Tom, Jerry, Tuffy and George therefore travel back to Africa on the ship bay, to rejoin Edu and find the true idol. This they do.

Upon the exhibit's re-opening, Ted, with the huge help of Tom, Jerry and Tuffy, redesigns the entire museum to be more interactive, thereby igniting the children's interest in history. The museum now includes a dinosaur rib cage, where the children can learn of the skeletal system, a space where they can learn about the solar system, a paint area, where the children can paint for and other exhibits. Ted and Maggie are about to become a most-perfect-pair couples in earnest when George again (which Tom, Tuffy and Jerry tries to stop him) interrupts them by hijacking a nearby spacecraft (The empty fuel tanks were filled by Clovis, accidentally). Ted, Tom, Jerry and George (while Tuffy is put behind with Maggie) orbit the Earth in this craft, which is itself a reference to the book series on which the original film is based. The original film concludes as they make their second and third orbits at a comically exaggerated speed.

In the post-credits, Robyn Starling and her father, Mr. Starling announced Tom, Jerry and Tuffy that they're moving from  <span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:sans-serif;">The Starling Enterprise Mansion (which Mr. Starling gave it to Pristine Figg and Lickboat with forgiveness and honesty)  into New York Chicago as their new home and a apartment next door neighbor of Ted and George's (which Ted had adopted him as his primarily monkey-son-like-friend). <span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:sans-serif;">Before the happy ending finished, two-look-alike men with the Yellow Hat (from the classic Curious George, which they're almost like brotherhood) emerge from the time travel machine with the counterparts of their monkey (which is George as their mistake) <span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:sans-serif;"> before gawking at the sight of their own counterpart along with Robyn Starling, her father Mr. Starling, Tom, Jerry and Tuffy as they make that "The second strangest."
