Season 9

The new baby-sitter worries the babies with her taste in teen-angst music, and the grown-ups with her wardrobe.

Taffy takes the Rugrats to a high school basketball game, where the Hornets are playing the visiting Poodles. However, Taffy ""volunteers"" herself to replace one of the cheerleaders, after one of them, her best friend Britannica, sprained their ankle, after Taffy caused their pyramid to collapse. As she does so, she leaves the Rugrats alone in the bleachers while she fills in for Britannica.

When Taffy comes over to babysit the Rugrats, she is upset that the band will break up, all because they feel that she is affecting her performance in the band. When Taffy says, ""I'm not myself"", Angelica tries to cheer her up by dressing like Taffy. However, this created a new problem -- the Rugrats think that Angelica, wearing one of taffy's hair clips, has become Taffy; while Taffy, calling the bandmembers ""dumb babies"" over the phone, has become Angelica.

The tykes misconstrue something their babysitter says about not liking dill pickles.

Taffy takes the Rugrats to a video arcade; the Rugrats imagine themselves trying to save ""Princess"" Taffy from the dragons in a video game.

When Taffy takes the babies on a picnic in the park, Phil bonds with Dusty, a young "sanitation artist" picking up trash, who is eventually revealed to be doing community service for littering.

Kimi has a special birthday party at Happy Castle.

The Rugrats coat Dil with ""Baby Power"" (baby powder), so he could be strong enough to beat Spiffy in a game of Tug-Of-War. Shortly afterward, though, an earthquake strikes the city, leading the Rugrats to believe that Dil has too much ""Baby Power"", so they try to find a way to make him normal again. The earthquake has given Stu an opportunity to try special earthquake safety helmets on the Rugrats, the newest product from Pickles Industries, ""the first name in disaster"".

The tykes enter their pets in a contest.

Angelica pretends to be the hero of a TV adventure, while Tommy and the gang make believe she's the villain.
