The story

Professor Julius Ferris Kelp is a neurotic, scruffy, buck-toothed, accident-prone, socially awkward university professor whose experiments in the classroom laboratory are unsuccessful and highly destructive. When a football-playing bully embarrasses and attacks him, Kelp decides to improve his physique by joining a local gym. Kelp's lack of physical strength leads him to seek a solution in his specialty of chemistry.
