Synopsis for "Introducing, Flexo the Rubber Man"

Josh and Joel Williams have created the new super robot known as Flexo. Constructed with a durable and malleable rubber body, and the ability to fly, they hope to use the robot to combat evil and help all mankind. After borrowing a sample of Radium to experiment on, the Williams brothers are tricked into coming to the aid of a damsel in distress. This all proves to be a ruse to steal the Radium from them. Bound to chairs, the brothers use their Flexo remote control to summon their robot to rescue them. Freeing its masters, the robot is sent to capture the crooks, but they refuse to talk.

Deciding a Radium thief would be easy to find, they track the thief with a radium detector. They trace the stolen material to the laboratory of Dr. Murdo, who attempts to slay the brothers and destroy Flexo with his own robots. Flexo makes short work of the robots, and when Murdo's men attempt to shoot Flexo, they puncture the robot's body unleashing a knock-out gas that subdues them all.

With their foes defeated, the Williams brothers order Flexo to destroy Murdo's devices and turn him over to the authorities.
