In this short, a young boy named Kenny and his pet ape Chimpy are asked to organize the lab of one '''Professor XXXL'''! Two things; one, the lab is full of dangerous diseases, and two, '''Professor XXXL''' thinks Chimpy is Kenny's brother, and thus the most trustworthy to handle the diseases.

While the series was never picked up, '''Professor XXXL''' would become a recurring character on Mr. Warburton's other series, ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor''. The short would later become included on an episode with the pilot ''WesternAnimation/NoPInTheOol'' and proper episode "Operation: C.A.K.E.D."
