Disobeying Papa Smurf, Clumsy unintentionally leads Gargamel and Azrael to the village. 3 - The Smurfs flee for their lives while Clumsy runs towards the Forbidden Falls. Papa Smurf, Smurfette, Grouchy, Brainy, and Gutsy follow and find him. At the edge of a cliff, they are sucked into a gigantic vortex that spirits them to present day New York City. The Smurfs are befriended by the Winslow family and are invited to stay in their apartment. 4 - The next day, needing to find a star gazer (a telescope), the Smurfs follow Patrick Winslow to work. However, having extracted "Smurf essence" from a lock of Smurfette's hair, Gargamel arrives and tracks the Smurfs to a toy store where the Winslows manage to save the Smurfs from both the children wanting them and from Gargamel. 5 - At this point, Papa Smurf must calculate the night when they can return, and he needs to find the spell to do so.

Gargamel sneaks into the book store and uses the dragon wand to capture Papa Smurf. 6 - At Belvedere Castle, Gargamel soon finds himself in a battle with all the Smurfs. Smurfette fights Azrael and saves Papa Smurf. Gargamel attempts to then kill Papa Smurf, and Patrick saves him while 7 - Gutsy knocks the dragon wand out of the wizard's hand. Clumsy manages to catch it and sends Gargamel flying into a trash can that gets hit by a bus. 8 - The Smurfs use the spell to return home, leaving Gargamel and Azrael trapped in New York.
