The tiny Himalayian country of Goldmanchu's only export is the gold created by the midas touch of the simpleminded mystic Golda (whose right hand turns things to gold and left hand turns things to wood). Golda's existence was a closely guarded secret but WOMP fears Dr Claw has learned of him and intends to use his golden touch to destabilize the world's economy so Gadget is sent to Goldmanchu. Unfortunately, Golda has already been replaced by an imposter with orders to eliminate Gadget.
