Synopsis for "Beware of Googam, Son of Goom!"

Goom leaves an offspring in a cave to menace the family of the scientist who was responsible for his defeat. Googam is defeated when the scientist's son challenges him to a game of tag and runs off towards a pool of quicksand and then climbs a tree. When Googam sees the quicksand he mistakenly assumes that it is only mud since the boy must have run across it. Googam only sees the boy hiding in the tree as he sinks into the quicksand.
