Plot
Sniffles, Chaffy and Prongs play a game of Dunces & Dragons. Flippy comes by and asks if he can join in, so they let him play too. Flippy rolls a dice and Sniffles reads a card. Flippy is quickly hooked on the game.

At the blink of an eye, Flippy finds himself in a mysterious land. Trixie appears from a smoke cloud to explain that the land has been taken over by the Frog King. According to a prophecy (one of the game cards), only Flippy can save the day. He finds a dice in his pocket and rolls it, consequently sending him on a quest.

Flippy stops at a bridge. Squabbles is seen crossing the bridge, when he is pulled underneath it and devoured by Bogey. Flippy makes several attempts to fight the monstrous troll but fails. His dice suddenly glows, so he rolls it again. As a result, the bridge collapses on Bogey. Flippy rolls the dice again and swings on a vine to the other side.

After a long journey, Flippy is exhausted, when he hears Princess calling him from a tower. However, it is being guarded by Lumpy the dragon. Flippy rolls his dice, recieving the powerful sword of Excalibur. The sword controls Flippy's movements and carves Lumpy into a dragon-skin purse.

Princess is thrilled when Flippy climbs in to rescue her. But then, the Frog King himself makes an appearance and sends in his guards to deal with the intruder. Flippy rolls his dice and his sword turns into a stick of dynamite. Upset that his guards were defeated, the Frog King stabs himself.

Princess hugs her hero, only to be decapitated. It is revealed that Flippy flipped out and the whole thing was in his imagination. He realizes that he has killed Prongs, Sniffles and Chaffy, so he walks away whistling.

Trivia

 * The title may be a pun on Conan the Barbarian.
 * Sniffles, Chaffy and Prongs are really the only characters who died because every other death took place in Flippy's imagination.
 * This marks Bogey's first death (unnofficialy, since it was imaginary).
 * This marks another instance Lumpy is shown as a mythical creature (a dragon in this case). He was also previously a giant, a genie, and a sea monster.
 * This is one of the few times Flippy flips out from something not related to war.
 * Originally, Toothy was in this episode, before Chaffy took his place.
