What's really going on
The scene plays the rescue as a jailbreak and a comedy routine at once. Ducky and Bunny begin fighting, then flip completely the moment they hear a kid is on the table, their whole outlook changed by the idea of belonging to someone: "We're gettin' a kid?" When the family decides to leave without Forky, the toys turn their mischief on the RV, joking about framing the dad or traveling through time before simply deflating the tires. The point is the same as the movie's: a toy is nothing without a kid, and these two will bend every rule to get one. The chaos is funny, but the longing under it is real.
Theme
IdentityTwo carnival prizes are transformed the instant they learn they might belong to a kid, fighting to make it real.
FriendshipThe toys work together, and with the rest of the group, to keep the family in town until their friends return.
Listen for

- break it up — liaison
- Watch it — flap
- Lead the way — liaison
That's crazy. Time is a flat circle.A joke that dismisses one wild plan with a stranger one, borrowed from a grim TV line and dropped into a toy comedy.
We stay together, we stay quiet. Are we clear?The briefing before the rescue: a simple rule, asked as a question so everyone has to agree.
We're not going anywhere. If you get my point.The saboteur's dry report: the RV will not move, and the reason is obvious if you look at the tires.
Okay, guys. Playtime is over.The switch from jokes to mission, saying the fun stops and the serious part begins.

That they will be taken to Bonnie, a human kid, and belong to her, which is why they are suddenly eager to cooperate.
Why do the toys sabotage the family's RV?
Bonnie's family plans to leave without Forky, so the toys disable the vehicle to keep the trip from starting until Woody and Buzz return.
What does 'Time is a flat circle' mean here?
