Subject Matter
Genres: childrens
Feature(s): Richie Rich
Character(s): Richie Rich; Richard Rich; two unnamed crooks
Synopsis: Having stolen a powerfully destructive fly-swatter, two crooks lead Richie and his father on a high speed car chase. The crooks try to shoot out the tires on Mr. Rich's car, but thanks to a couple of useful gadgets Richie's father had previously installed, the bullets don't slow them down. The more dimwitted of the crooks uses the fly-swatter in ways that foil their own plans, ultimately leading to their capture. As a result of the incident, Mr. Rich decides not to put the destructive swatter on the market.
