Landing in hospital following a series of mishaps, Mokong and Don Robert receive a map from a dying patient containing clues towards a cure-all medicine that could make them rich. The convince their respective families to accompany them in finding it and go separately to a run-down laboratory run by mad scientist Hannibal, who captures them all except for Mokong and Kuting and electrocutes them into insanity. Mokong and Kuting later restore their minds and defeat Hannibal before rescuing Dr. No, a scientist who leads them to the next clue, located in a bank that is being robbed while Don Robert's daughter Kasoy, who chose to stay behind, is inside.

After Mokong and Don Robert foil the robbers, the grateful bank managers give them their next clue, which leads them to the mansion of a Beast who falls in love with Barbie. The Beast is transformed back into human form by Barbie's love, but is mortally wounded by his servant out of jealousy, after which the mansion collapses, but not before the dying Beast reveals that the next clue is in the Moon.

However, the tribe are decimated by carnivorous aliens while Don Robert is mauled by the flower after he gets too much of its stamen. Mokong, Don Robert and their families are then rescued by relatives on a spaceship and return to Earth, but Don Robert is ejected into space by Mokong when he tries to stop his romance with Kasoy.
