Detailed summary
When Ding-a-Ling is reading the three little pigs story, Hokey comes up with a plan to take the three pigs brick house so they could have a "nice cozy home for the winter". When walking, Ding-a-Ling, out of curiosity, asks Hokey how their going to get the three pigs out of the brick house, and asks Hokey if their going to huff and puff. Hokey tells Ding "That huff and puff stuff is old wolf style Ding-a-Ling. Today is brains, and mentality, and I've got it", just then, they come across the three pigs brick house when they are having a barbecue. Hokey introduces himself to the three pigs, in which the three pigs start yelling "wolf!" Hokey, annoyed, tells them to "Knock it off!" and lies about being part of the "wolf bag insurance company" and is looking for a "Mr. Big Bad Wolf" because they believe he met with foul play and if so, it will go hard on the foul players. The three pigs lie about not knowing the Big Bad Wolf and tell Hokey that there use to be another three pigs in the neighborhood, but they moved to Switzerland and suggested that they try there. Hokey (obviously not buying it) pretends to go there. Soon after, the three pigs share their terrifying memories with the big bad wolf and how he "burned up in the fireplace, Hokey, with Ding listening in on the three pigs, comes up with an idea of dressing up as the ghost of the Big Bad Wolf to "scare the curls off the pig's tails", after scaring them, they move out the next morning after being convinced that the place was haunted. They allow Hokey and Ding to have it if they want it.
Soon after the three pigs are upset about losing their home, just then the Big Bad Wolf pops out of the brushes to tell them that he's turned over a new leaf. When they ask him if he burned up in the fireplace, he tells them he didn't in which they immediately assume that Hokey tricked them out of their him. Hokey and Ding are enjoying their new home when suddenly one of the pigs calls out that their going to "huff and puff and blow the house down" Hokey laughs in disbelief to Ding. When the Big Bad Wolf blows the house down with Hokey and Ding inside. The pigs laugh and Hokey and Ding are seen in a mess of bricks (formally being the brick house) confused on what just happened. Hokey asks Ding to give him the book and starts reading it.
