On returning from the moon, Sheldgoose journeys to Italy so Lord Felldrake can steal the cosmic fruit of the World Tree of the gods. The Caballeros arrive, and Xandra can't wait to introduce them to the ancient Roman gods. But it seems her heroes have gone to seed and given up combating evil. While Donald, José, and Panchito battle giant termites, Xandra gives the gods a much-needed pep talk, encouraging them to join the fray. Felldrake's power seems limitless as long as he holds the cosmic fruit, but the Caballeros distract him long enough for Xandra to shoot the fruit out of his hand, blasting the villains to their next destination.
