In "Race through Space!", Herbie teams up with his animal friends to build a rocket and enter a high-stakes space race, all to fund a swimming pool. With Professor Flipdome away and his rival Black Bumby doing everything he can to sabotage the run, Herbie’s wild ride through the cosmos is anything but ordinary.
In "Egyptian Conniption!", Herbie mishears his dad’s request to fetch Elizabeth Taylor as Cleopatra and instead leaps back to ancient Egypt—where he accidentally brings the real Cleopatra home, much to his dad’s delight. The story unfolds with classic 1966 humor, blending time-travel gags and romantic chaos as Cleopatra and Herbie’s dad find themselves entangled in a very modern misunderstanding.
