Plot

In an unexpected twist of fate, the quirky Ernest P. Worrel stumbles upon an eccentric device known as the Changing Coffin, acquired at a bargain price. A whirl of transformation engulfs him, morphing him into his polar opposite - the deranged scientist and menacing supervillain, Dr. Otto. His sinister plan? To harness the disruptive power of the Gloom Beam, aiming to incapacitate the world's financial systems and effectively monopolize wealth. As the impending threat looms, the world turns to the inept yet courageous Lance Sterling and his prudent accomplice, Doris, to thwart Dr. Otto's nefarious scheme. Journeying into the heart of malevolence, Dr. Otto's lair, they find themselves faced with a chilling array of his terrifying alter egos and the mechanical menace, Willie the Robot. The duo must navigate this labyrinth of peril, where danger lurks behind every corner, in their desperate bid to save the world from a financial apocalypse.
