When a super robot named Snookums learns how to create its own superbombs, it becomes obvious that the Earth is by no means the safest place for it. Therefore, Dr. Fitzhugh, his designer, and Leda Crannon, a child psychologist acting as the Snookums nanny, agree to organize Operation Brain, a plan to transport the robot to a distant planet. Mike Angel - MR R. Gabriel, Power Design - designed a propulsion system that would deliver the Branchell spaceship to its secret destination along with its unusual cargo. And, as a reserve officer in the Space Patrol, Mike is the logical replacement for the inevitably detained ship officer. But, once in space, Branchell becomes the scene of some frightening events - the medical officer is killed, and Snukums is the culprit. Mike Angel is a little indulgent, and the facts he discovers lead to an extraordinary climax.
