Mama Imelda Bot: Tennessee's Most Wanted is the twenty-second installment in the Inside Joke Cinematic Universe, and the sixth installment in the Mama Imelda Bot series.

Synopsis
The film opens with Mama Imelda Bot and her friends on a trip in Memphis, Tennessee. They explore the city and see the sights until coming upon the site of Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination at the Lorraine Motel. Chef becomes overwhelmed with rage after seeing all the references to the Civil Rights Movement and decides to destroy the building. The rest of the gang is rightfully taken aback by this and flees as he sets fire to it. They head to Nashville, abandoning Chef and stopping for the night.

That night, Imelda books a room at a Hilton hotel in the downtown area, where a short, Asian woman named Edna Mode is waiting for them. It is revealed that she is a talent manager who works for multiple celebrities in the Land of the Dead, including Ernesto De La Cruz. She explains that she knows who they are and wants them to stop him, as he is building a death ray and plotting to kill countless people so he can have more fans in the Land of the Dead. Mr. Peabody checks the news on his cell phone and realizes that there are reports of high levels of radiation coming from the city of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, where De La Cruz has booked a venue, backing up Edna's claims. The gang decides to hunt him down and stop him, and they head out of town, but first stop at the mall for dinner. In the restaurant, they run into Chef, who is visibly angry. They argue about what happened in Memphis and then describe what Edna told them. Imelda calls Pepita, who comes crashing through the roof to pick them up. They burst out of the building, and are chased by security guards.

While they drive away, they are pursued by a group of animal control officers, led by a woman by the name of Chantel Dubois, on motorcycles. After using multiple weapons on them, they lose all of the officers but Dubois, who tranquilizes Mama Coco and grabs Dante with a noose and attempts to pull him out of the van. Entbrat swiftly drives off the road in an effort to knock her off, causing the back tires to go out. Dubois pulls Dante out of the back window and climbs onto the roof as the car stalls. Suddenly, Pepita lifts up the vehicle, trying to carry it to safety. the momentum flings the two off, but Miguel manages to pull Dante to safety.

The gang escapes but is on the run, having destroyed both their van and their reputation. They run into a train yard, where the find a circus train. They try to board it, but are confronted by a Russian tiger named Vitaly. He tells them to leave, but his companion, an Italian sea lion named Stefano, lets them get on. They ask Imelda what her act is, and Miguel says she uses a jetpack, Peabody says confetti falls from the sky, Dante says she farts out a balloon, and Chef says she jumps into a pool full of black people. She strings them all together, saying she falls towards a pool, and then flies into the sky through confetti, and farts a balloon, calling it the Trapeze Mexicano. It is revealed that they are also headed to Myrtle Beach, where they are to perform, but before they can go, they have to impress a promoter in Savannah, Georgia. The gang splits up to explore, and Entbrat and Mammot end up in a dark train car. There, they meet four penguins, Skipper, Kowalski, Rico, and Private, a group of lemurs, and one of them, King Julien, introduces them to his girlfriend, a grizzly bear named Sonya. Entbrat is left speechless by her beauty and kicks Julien out of the way so he can be with her.

The circus stops in Pigeon Forge for a show the next evening, where they are to put on a performance. Imelda instructs everyone to lay low and let the animals do their thing. She and her friends sit backstage and watch, expecting everything to go smoothly. However, the performance goes horribly, Stefano falls over, and an elephant falls on a kid, who gets stuck in its anus. The audience demands refunds and chases them off the stage. The gang is disheartened and realizes that they are stuck with a cruddy circus.

That night, Stefano takes Mama Imelda aside and leads her into another train car. He turns on the light, revealing a trophy case. He explains that Circus Zaragoza used to be a popular, high quality circus, and Vitaly was its star. He jumped with hoops that got progressively smaller and smaller, captivating people far and wide. But one day, he jump through a flaming hoop and caught fire, injuring himself and destroying his reputation. He lost his passion for the show, causing everyone to do the same, creating a terrible string of performances.

Imelda promises to train the animals and make a new show, saving the circus. They go to the Great Smoky Mountains in North Carolina, where they practice for the Myrtle Beach performance. Chef paints his entire body blue with pink polka dots and dances. Stefano climbs into a cannon filled with dynamite and explains to Mammot that he always dreamed of being a human cannonball, except, a sea-lion cannonball. The penguins launch him out of it and he flies into and electrical tower, and gets tangled in its wires. Mammot rescues him by launching himself out of the cannon and onto the tower, and realizes how great it feels to fly. Later, Vitaly agrees to jump through one hoop, to everyone's delight.

The next day, the circus is ready for its show, and Imelda makes sure everyone is ready. She finds Stefano crying and comforts him. He explains that Vitaly lashed out at him, and won't go on. She sends Chef to go talk to him, and he convinces him to go on.

The show goes well and impresses the promoter, who gives them a tour contract for Myrtle Beach. But after he leaves, Dubois shows up and grabs Dante with a noose, explaining to the chimps (who are dressed up as the King of Versailles) that he is a fugitive and a part of the Avengers, showing them a news article she printed that shows Imelda and the others in New York. The penguins get rid of her by launching her and the other animal control officers out of a cannon, but Stefano picks up the article, realizing that he's been lied to. He leaves, and Vitaly is visibly upset. He grabs them and throws them all onto the street, except for Mammot who stays with the circus.

A spotlight is shined Imelda and the others from above, as Squilliam and I.C.E. chase them in helicopters. A net falls down on Entbrat and he is pulled away. The gang follows, but loses him. Peabody checks his phone and realizes that Ernesto is set to perform in an hour. They decide to go to the arena in town to stop him.

While sneaking in, they are stopped by skeleton guards and Frida Kahlo. They fight, until Dubois suddenly steps into the room, followed by the other animal control officers, wielding a golden gun. She shoots Kahlo with it, and she is instantly vaporized. She explains that the weapon is a magical item given to her by Ernesto, and it sends skeletons to the final death, erasing them from existence. She then aims it at Imelda, and a shootout ensues. The other officers are all killed, Dubois dodges, but she is blasted into the arena crowd by Imelda. Everyone heads towards the stage in order to stop the performance, splitting up to get better vantage points.

Imelda, Miguel, and Dante make it onto the stage, where Ernesto is waiting for them. He throws Dante back and battles Imelda. He eventually knocks her down, grabs Miguel and starts sucking out his soul. Imelda gets to her feet and lunges forward, pushing him back and causing him to drop him. Suddenly, Dubois aims her golden gun at her from the crowd and shoots, while everyone watches. Peabody, Chef, Coco, Miguel, and Dante all yell "No!" as a montage of the good times they had together plays, and Dubois and De La Cruz laugh maniacally in victory.

Just before the bullet hits its target, a pair of hands grabs Imelda from above and lifts her up. She looks up to see Mammot hanging from a trapeze, attached to a flying circus balloon playing Afro Circus. The two elephants fall from it and slam together, crushing Ernesto and dizzying him. In the process, they burst a water pipe, causing a mosh pit with a black family in it to flood. The circus animals come to the ground on jetpacks, saving everyone, and Dubois presses a button on a little remote, causing a cage with Entbrat inside to rise from the stage. Vitaly leaps down and jumps through the keyhole, grabbing him and jumping back out. Dubois blocks them, so Vitaly tells him to suck in his gut, and they jump into her anus and pop out of her mouth, paralyzing her.

Everyone gets onto the balloon, but they realize Stefano is still on the ground. Dubois comes to and chases after him, grabbing him with a noose. She pulls out a saw and tries to cut his head off. Dante flies towards them on a jetpack, grabs him, and hands him to Chef, but Dubois grabs him with her noose instead. Imelda flies down and punches her in the face, freeing Dante, but is immediately snared. Her and Dubois fight, and they narrowly miss the pool of black people. She frees herself and drops her and balloons confetti falls from above. She looks up at Stefano as a balloon falls behind her. He claps and Vitaly says "Trapeze Mexicano, it is real!" They invite the gang to run away with the circus, and Chef sings Afro Circus. The next shot shows everyone in the circus train wearing and rainbow afro wig, dancing to the song. Imelda asks Skipper what he did with the crazy lady, and the camera changes to show Dubois in a a box, tied up, alongside Squilliam, Ernesto, and the animal control officers, who are now skeletons. She peers out of a peephole and notices a label on another box that reads "Ship To Madagascar" and she screams.

In a post-credits scene, the gang is waving goodbye to the circus train, which has a 'Just Married' banner on the background. Entbrat and Sonya are in the caboose throwing flowers. Imelda, Mammot, Coco, Chef, Peabody, Miguel, Dante, and the lemurs get into their van and drive off into the sunset.
