Moxy, Mandy, and several Uglies demand to be allowed to participate. The entire population of Uglyville arrives at the Institute on the day of the Gauntlet. He leaves Mandy and Moxy to be shredded, but Ox learns what has happened and rallies the Ugly Dolls to rescue the pair. Moxy and Mandy try to return to the Gauntlet, but are waylaid by Lou, who has unblocked the recycling center. Mandy visits and encourages Moxy to keep her faith, as it has given all the imperfect Pretties hope that they might succeed. Ox found the recycling center there seeing other dolls like himself being shredded up, he rerouted the tunnel and founded Uglyville at the other end.ĭemoralized by the realization they are factory rejects, the entire town of Uglyville falls into despair, and Moxy resigns herself to her fate. However, the Pretties turned on Ox, and Lou sent him down the tunnel, claiming he thought it led to safety. The Spy Girls return with a kidnapped Ox, and Lou makes him admit to Moxy he actually knew about the Big World, as he had once trained with Lou for the Gauntlet and nearly passed. She gives them some pointers, and helps them dress the part of a 'perfect doll'. Mandy, one of the Pretties, sympathizes with them, as she has poor eyesight but can't wear glasses for fear of being labeled 'ugly' and put in the dreaded recycling center. The Uglies' first days of training end in disaster. Faced with Moxy's positivity, Lou relents and lets them train however, he sends his three Spy Girls to find out where Moxy's group came from. The vain and superficial leader of the institute, Lou, tells Moxy and her friends that they cannot hope to pass the training for the Gauntlet - an obstacle course based on a human house, which determines if a doll will be allowed to use the portal to the Big World.
The Ugly Dolls discover the Institute of Perfection, where Perfect Dolls (or "Pretties") are rigorously trained. One day, Moxy enters the tunnel to find her way to the Big World, followed by the town's cynical chef Wage, easy-going Ugly Dog, shy wiseman Lucky Bat, and soft-hearted giant Babo. Among these dolls is Moxy, who dreams of the 'Big World' and being loved by a child, despite Uglyville's Mayor Ox assuring her this concept is a myth.
In a hidden universe within a toy factory, deformed dolls, or Uglies, are dropped into a tunnel leading to the secluded hideous town of Uglyville.
