While the man's mother has taken over his business and intends to merge it with a rival company. Worst of all, in the interest of "progress", she has completely automated his beloved ship, "Electra". Determined to put an end to all of this nonsense, Cappy comes up with a fool proof plan to set things right again. But will it work?
