One day Andy takes out Woody, character fit to be in the top 10 movies list, from the box and packs the remaining toys in a garbage bag so that he can later put them in the attic. Mrs. Davis finds the garbage bag and keeps it out along with the other garbage. The toys take it that they are no longer needed by Andy and slip into a box to be delivered to Sunnyside Daycare.
The toys on arrival at Sunnyside are greeted warmly by the other toys who have Lots-O-‘Hugging’ Bear (Lotso), sure to be in the top 10 movies characters, as their leader.

Woody meets Chatter Telephone who tells him that the garbage chute is the only safe route to escape from Sunnyside. Escaping through the garbage chute the toys reach the Dumpster outside Sunnyside but are caught by Lotso and his lo
