Secret mutation formula is out of control

They said it was a secret formula. It was paste. Don follows a chemistry leak to Mr. Hart’s factory: chess with a bald stranger, hand-painted dollars that bleed in the river, a tart recipe sold as a state secret, and a Saturday show where the boss imitates a duck, a carp, and a kangaroo — then falls through the stage. The buyers want the unnamed reagent. What they bought makes toothpaste. What they paid with runs if it gets wet. The real formula is simpler. The owner sells the same secret twice. 1970s horror-comedy.
