When Kipper unknowingly picks up a dead body in his cab, he becomes entangled in a dangerous plot involving spies and secret government agents.

As Kipper navigates the comedic and perilous situations that arise, he teams up with a journalist named Amy, portrayed by Linda Grovenor, to unravel the mystery and stay one step ahead of the nefarious villains. The film blends comedy, action, and suspense elements as Kipper and Amy find themselves caught up in a web of intrigue.
