Synopsis for the TV Cartoon The Biot in Red

The Phantom is trapped between rival forces attempting to retrieve a valuable message cylinder stolen from an orbiting space station.

A message cylinder stolen by a spy from an orbiting space station falls into the hands of Max, Jr. Following a melee with Heisenberg, the shape-changing Biot, and his jazz-playing friend Betty, Max hides the cylinder in Betty's saxophone case. Betty takes it to the Phantom. Knowing the value of the cylinder, Dr. Jak sends his Biot assistant, Pavlova, to hire an undercover agent to find its whereabouts. Pavlova goes directly to Jack Archer.

During their second meeting, Pavlova and Jack Archer are taken hostage by Max. Max won't release them until the message cylinder is returned. The Phantom realizes the threat he faces when Sparks decodes the message cylinder. It contains a map indicating the location of the Phantom's secret Lair.

The Phantom exchanges a modified cylinder (which conceals the location of the Lair) for Pavlova and Archer. Heisenberg proves to be a Biot with a heart, when he helps Phantom free the hostages- all because of his love for Pavlova. Maybe Biots aren't simply unfeeling heaps of metal after all...
