The story

Tuck Pendleton resigns his commission and volunteers for a secret miniaturization experiment.

To stop the experiment from falling into the rivals' hands, the wounded Ozzie injects Tuck and the pod into an unsuspecting passerby—Safeway grocery clerk Jack Putter.

At the lab, the scientists explain to Tuck and Jack that the other group stole one of two computer chips that are vital to the process.
