The stalwart heroes of The Zula Patrol are on an expedition collecting samples of weather for Multo's research - using their loyal pet Gorga's ability to collect and bottle all kinds of weather. When one member of The Zula Patrol inadvertently hurts Gorga's feelings, he decides to leave Zula and find a planet in the Solar System on which to live. Interplanetary villain Dark Truder, along with his talking toupee, Traxie, takes advantage of the situation to trick Gorga into helping him take the weather from the Solar System planets - part of this latest nefarious scheme to rule the Universe (and find the legendary Kaboobie Ruby). The Zula Patrol discovers Dark Truder's plan and goes after him - discovering all about weather in the process, both terrestrial and interplanetary.
