Synopsis by Hal Erickson

As indicated by the title, this fast-paced cartoon is a spoof of the 1960s TV espionage series The Man From U.N.C.L.E.. Zooming along the road in his gimmicked-up toy car, secret agent Jerry ("007 1/2") pulls up at his headquarters, located behind a cash register. Here he receives his latest assignment: to steal a valuable cache of frozen cheese from evil masterspy Tom THRUSH. Though Jerry is able to penetrate Tom's castle fortress, the cunning cat has set up a breathtaking variety of booby traps in anticipation of the mouse's arrival--including an electronic gauntlet that might even give James Bond pause.
