SYNOPSIS 

While adjusting his invisibility mechanism, Uncle 
Martin get a sliver of invisoflex in his finger. This is 
the substance that causes invisibility, so whatever 
he touches with his finger immediately disappears, in
particular the furniture and his valuable Martian identity 
disk. Trying to explain the disappearance of the furniture 
to Mrs. Brown, Tim blames it on burglars. But she then 
summons Lt. Brennan, who takes Martin's jacket down
to the station as a possible clue. The identity disk is in 
the pocket of the jacket, and Martin realizes that when 
the invisibility wears off, his secret will be discovered.

He and Tim rush down to the station to recover the disk. 
But Brennan, mistaking it for a dime, deposits it in a 
candy vending machine. Uncle Martin and Tim buy dozens 
of candy bars until they get the disk back in change. 
Unfortunately, at this moment Brennan reappears, and 
Tim hastily deposits the disk into a nearby ice cream 
dispenser.

He doesn't realize that the disk contains a miniature 
Martian tape recorder that subjected to extreme cold, 
begins to broadcast cries for help. Uncle Martin manages 
to get them out of the predicament by having a slightly 
befuddled actor, Gerald Waley, pretend he is a ventriloquist 
producing the calls for help. Under Martin's Academy Award 
direction, Waley delivers a performance that finally breaks 
the ice cream bar machine, releasing the disk and saving 
Martin's secret.
