However, Brainard is too busy experimenting with the Flubber to even notice them and unknowingly knocks them unconscious with a Flubber-coated golf ball and bowling ball.

That night, Hoenicker sends his security guards Smith and Wesson to Brainard's house in an attempt to persuade Brainard into giving Bennett a better grade. Meanwhile, Medfield College sponsor Chester Hoenicker (who is first seen in a newspaper article as the one threatening to foreclose the college) is disappointed that Brainard has failed his son Bennett in chemistry class. Brainard goes to Sara's office and unsuccessfully attempts to explain the situation to her, after which he becomes all the more determined to prove the Flubber's worth and win her back.

Brainard's incorrectly set watch alarm goes off at 6:30 am, and Weebo informs him that he has missed the wedding. Weebo, Brainard's hovering robot assistant, classifies the substance as 'flying rubber', leading Brainard to christen it 'Flubber'.īrainard continues to work on Flubber into the early morning, looking to stabilize the Flubber's movement as opposed to stimulation. It increases in speed as it bounces and proves to be difficult to control, wreaking havoc on the neighborhood before the professor finally manages to capture it. The resulting substance created from the experiment is a sentient green goo with enormous amounts of elasticity and kinetic energy. Brainard takes this declaration as a joke.īefore he can make it to the wedding, his latest experiment shows quick progress, forcing him to miss this latest wedding date. On the day of the third attempted wedding, Brainard is approached by his former partner Wilson Croft, who has profited from ideas he has stolen from the chemist and now desires to steal Sara from Brainard and make her his wife. His preoccupation with his research distracts him from his fiancée, Sara Jean Reynolds, who is the president of the college he has already missed two wedding dates as a result of this, much to Sara's anger. He does this to raise enough money to save the college from closure. Professor Philip Brainard, of Medfield College, is a mad scientist who is developing a new energy source.
