Messina kills Frederic's parents to take the throne, then changes the ten-year-old prince into a frog rather than killing him. The boy's new life is spent as Freddie the Frog, and the Loch Ness Monster saves him from his aunt's pursuit, after which he stays for a time with a colony of frogs. In the 20th century the seemingly immortal Freddie works for the French Secret Service as F.R.O.7. The British Secret Service brings him to London, where El Supremo has been stealing the country's most famous landmarks, among them Buckingham Palace and Stonehenge. Freddie meets Brigadier G, the martial arts expert Daffers and the weapons expert Scotty, and learns that El Supremo means to take Big Ben.
