The film starts in court, where Merlin Jones legally adopts his monkey, Stanley. Midvale College is told that a wealthy man, Mr. Astorbilt, will give a large donation if they build a man-powered flying machine by a certain date. Jones designs a lightweight airplane powered by bicycle pedals and develops a strength elixir to help the football-jock friends pedal it successfully.
