They must find the Super-Key, something that Monterey Jack seems to know about. Follow Chip, Dale, Gadget, Monterey Jack and Zipper as they face dangers from crocodiles to waterfalls to get to the bottom of the case. Kids will no doubt be attracted to this series, just as many of their parents loved it when they were young.
