A formula has been stolen from scientists that can help destroy the world. Dr. Crow is now trying to get his hands on this formula, which the four amateurs should prevent. When she tried the formula before Dr. To get hold of Crow, they stumble in a stupid manner from one chaos to the next.

Your route leads from London to Vienna, notorious as a mecca of agents, to Algiers . There they come into possession of the formula despite their inability and although they repeatedly miss their liaison man. Agent Honeybutt, who has a photographic memory, stores the formula in her memory and the four destroy it. They are actually already on their way back to London, but shortly before their destination, Dr. Crow's henchmen kidnapped.

The final that follows will be held at the headquarters of the STENCH organization . First, the four of them can try Dr. Crows fend off the formula to gain.
