Watch: Buzz Lightyear Crashes Group Therapy

The Toy Story movies blend catharsis, childhood nostalgia and adorableness together so brilliantly it’s a crying shame there’s only three of them. Luckily, fans of the movies (i.e. everyone) will get to check in with Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the other contents of the toy box in the new short film, Toy Story: Small Fry, which will play at all screenings of The Muppets set for release later this month.

The premise: Buzz Lightyear is left behind at a fast food restaurant when a kids’ meal toy version of Buzz takes his place. While Bonnie’s toys are stuck with the annoying three-inch-tall Buzz impersonator, the real Buzz is trapped in therestaurant at a support group for discarded toys. As Woody and the gang devise a way to rescue their friend, Buzz tries to escape the toy psychotherapy meeting.

No film company explores the depths of abandonment issues quite like Pixar.
