Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine Plot Summary
What happens in Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 10 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 1-minute read.
Spoilers ahead
In a zippy, tongue-in-cheek sci-fi caper, Dr. Goldfoot unveils an army of gold-clad androids borne from his infamous bikini machine, crafted to charm wealthy men and coax them into signing away their fortunes. His loyal but bumbling assistant, Igor, backs him up, gleefully bungling schemes yet remaining devoted to the cause.
One robot, Diane, mistakes a target for someone else entirely: she aims at the SIC agent Craig Gamble instead of the millionaire Todd Armstrong. Gamble notices something off about her behavior and quickly pieces together that she is not human. This misstep pivots the plot into motion, as Gamble and Armstrong team up to uncover and thwart the nefarious plan.
