action
Kalle, Anders and Eva-Lotta watch as Prof. Rasmusson and his five-year-old son Rasmus are kidnapped. Prof. Rasmusson invented a bulletproof light metal, with which aircraft are to be built, through which no more shots can go. The crooks really wanted to get to the papers on which the invention is described. Eva secretly sneaks into the kidnapper's car and leaves a trail of cake crumbs for Kalle and Anders, who follow her from a distance on a motorcycle.
Eva-Lotta is locked in a room by the kidnappers together with Rasmus. Rasmus explains that he would like to become a member of the White Rose, a secret society of Kalle, Anders and Eva-Lotta. He shouldn't tell anything about the presence of Anders and Kalle, who are secretly communicating with Eva-Lotta. In order not to endanger the life of the kidnapped, Kalle and Anders do not turn to the police, but try to help alone.
Rasmus soon befriends his kidnapper Nicke. He is the only one of the gangsters who is nice to Rasmus and Eva-Lotta and brings them food. However, the leader of the gangsters, Peters, already has plans for Rasmus. This is to be taken away by plane the following day.
Rasmus persuades Nicke to let him and Eva-Lotta go for a swim. Eva-Lotta and Rasmus run away. They meet Kalle and Anders and flee together with them to their hiding place. There they are caught by the gangsters and locked together in a room.
Rasmus meanwhile asks Nicke to help him so that he is not taken away by plane. Nicke tells Peters that he no longer wants to take part in the kidnapping. Peters explains that Nicke cannot get out and from now on has him constantly guarded.
Kalle, who has escaped from the room, breaks into the gangster's office and tells the police by phone where the White Rose, Prof. Rasmusson and Rasmus are. He is caught by Peters and knocked unconscious. He wakes up in the room with his friends. Peters takes the weeping Rasmus with him. Kalle, Eva-Lotta and Anders can escape from the room.
Rasmus meanwhile screams for Nicke, who frees Rasmus and escapes with him. While the crooks are looking for Nicke and Rasmus, Kalle sabotages the plane so that it cannot take off properly. The gangsters discover Nicke and shoot him. This will alert the approaching police. The gangsters try to disappear by plane. Since this does not start, the police can free Prof. Rasmusson, who is already sitting in the plane. The gangsters are arrested and Nicke comes to the hospital. Rasmus became a member of the White Rose a little later. Nicke congratulates him.
