The contest attracts two brand-new and suspicious characters: Boris Badenov and Natasha Fatale, the well-known spies who are Rocky and Bullwinkle's long-standing enemies. These antagonists see an opportunity in the modest pie contest to defeat Rocky and Bullwinkle and use a robotic variation of Bullwinkle to complete.
