Gerry Wade has a serious problem: he always wakes up late for breakfast, annoying his hosts during his stay at the Chimneys mansion. The other guests of the house decide to play a trick on the sleeper and put eight clocks in his room, set to wake up at 6:30 am. Morning arrives and, to everyone's surprise, the game ends up having a tragic result.
Now it's up to young Bundle and her friends to investigate what went wrong.
