Special: In part 1, "Diaper Change" (given in press release as "Diapey Butts"), the gang goes to the Fall Festival to see the fall colors, take hayrides, and enjoy the bounty of the harvest. Angelica takes advantage of the fall weather by reminding the Rugrats that a lot of bad things happen as the season rolls in; and it's not just falling leaves, or squirrels storing nuts for the winter. And something bad does happen, when Grandpa moves out (again) after Stu's latest invention, a Reptar robot for Euro Reptar Land, malfunctions in his basement. Meanwhile, Chazz starts to play "The Dating Game", after Betty gave him a makeover AND a date each night with one of her loony friends; Betty also had Phil & Lil switch to super-absorbent diapers, the size of extra-large Depends.

In part 2, "Fall Stinks", Tommy and the Rugrats give up Reptar for good (or not?), and bury all their Reptar stuff in the sandbox; this is after Tommy felt that it was Reptar that caused Grandpa to leave. Later, when the gang visited Grandpa, he was transported to the hospital, following a salsa-dance mishap at his new home -- a retirement community where a fun, active life is compulsory. Meanwhile, Chazz finds himself attractive to a lot of women (all of them Betty's friends), but which one does Chazz feel comfortable with the most (considering they're all "sideshow" material)?

In the conclusion, "Don't Poop On My Parade'', the Rugrats try to stop Fall by stopping the parade, and they do, with a little help of their former friend, Reptar. And in the audience, someone from Euro Reprar Land is watching, in hopes that it would become an important part of the new theme park. Meanwhile, Grandpa recovers nicely, but ends up coming down with a new disease -- the "Love Bug" -- after a nurse named Lulu brought him back to health. In a bizarre twist, this wasn't the first time they met, yet it was the first time they knew each other.moreless

      • At first, the title "Acorn Nuts And Diapey Butts" was used only in early schedules and press releases -- the actual episodes displayed only the titles of each part. But with the 8/4/2001 "movie", this title was used in the schedule. Also, in the "movie" version, there was only one title card, with the "Acorn Nuts and Diapey Butts" title, and one set of closing credits covering all 3 parts. Also, all the writers and directors are credited at the top of the movie. Finally, the titles of the 3 parts are not seen at all in the "movie" version.
