Curator’s notes

This clip encapsulates the ongoing battle between the villainous Dexter and his henchmen, and our heroes Flipper and Lopaka. Flipper and Lopaka constantly use their wits to defeat Dexter rather than resorting to fighting and physical contact – a consistent feature of Yoram Gross productions. Dexter, as always, receives his just deserts in an impressive but harmless animation explosion.
