A stolen top-secret
microchip is hidden in a Remote-Control Car in order to get it through customs,
but due to a baggage mix-up at the airport, it ends up in the possession of
cantankerous old woman, Mrs. Hess (Marian Seldes).
When she returns home
to Chicago, she discovers she has the wrong bag, and having no use for a toy
car, gives it to 8-year-old Alex Pruitt (Alex D. Linz), in payment for clearing
the snow off her path.
However, the four
high-tech international thieves, Petr Beaupre (Olek Krupa), Alice Ribbons (Rya
Kihlstedt), Burton Jernigan (Lenny von Dohlen) and Earl Unger (David Thornton)
want the chip back and manage to narrow their search to a small suburban
street, and then decide to burglarize every house in the street until the find
the car.
By that time Alex is
confined to his house with chicken pox and sees the burglars going from one house
to another, but the police don’t believe him, so he has to wait for them to get
to his house and make sure he is prepared for their visit.
