Synopsis: Our evil doc Z. has his eye out for jewels and then mistakes Goo's "ice" from the
Moon Boggles (whom we last saw in their own guest starring short) and then, amusedly rec-
ognizing this error, Gumby decides to take advantage of it by LETTING the madman find the
hard way.
Apparently a cross over after "Moon Boggles","Prickle's Problem" &  "Piano Rolling Blues" was ordered by TV, maybe even a network hoping
for Sat.Am.TV shows in 1967. It figures. H-B's "Wacky Races" spun off "Dastardly and Muttley" and "Penelope Pitstop", so maybe this
short was an experiemnt for the Dr. and the "Moon Boggles" together or by themselves, just as "Santa Witch","Goo for Pokey","Puppy Dog
School" and "The Reluctant Gargoyles" might have been Pokey spinoffs.
Our story  opens with a telescopic "iris" of a zoo with Goo and the Moon Boggles, crowning (or "tiara-ing" her?) princess and us seeing the owner
of the telescopic Dr.Zveege (probaly his last appearance) and mistaking the ice for jewels. He then sends his moving cage (from "Prickle's Problem")
out for Goo but then she escapes and reports it to Gumby who then knows the mistake and then decides well, if Doctor Zveegee WANTS this, he'll
GET it, since he doesn't even know what he is in  STORE for. He soon finds out once his cage drops the ICE in and he finds out, crouches over and FALLS
in the machine. We then see a hapless Dr.Zveegee being carried over to our heroes (and that includes the Moon Boggles in their last appearance) for a closing.
"Bah", again, is all that he can say.
