[edit] Plot
When Charlie takes his honorable wife and all twelve children on an outing to a circus, he soon discovers that the main attraction is a baffling case of murder. With a rampaging gorilla on the loose, his overzealous son Lee on his heels, and everyone from the snake charmer to the contortionist as suspects, Charlie must walk a tightrope to unmask the murderer...before disaster strikes again.
