'''''Secret Agent Super Dragon''''' is a film.
Super Dragon is a low-rent [[James Bond]] who, [[Ten-Minute Retirement|despite being retired]], is called back into action [[It's Personal|when a colleague is killed]]. The case the colleague was working centers around a mysterious new drug which has been turning the student body of a small college town into a mindless mob; and the investigation leads Super Dragon on a trail of intrigue to Holland, several nice apartments, a charity art auction, a [[Priceless Ming Vase|Ming vase]] smuggling ring, and tainted chewing gum (seriously) with which the bad guys plan to [[Take Over the World]] (seriously!). Along the way, Super Dragon will need the help of ever-loyal Agent Fulton, ex-con and [[Gadgeteer Genius]] Babyface, smokin' Agent Rembrandt 13, an "attractive for her age" hotel proprietor, and all his wits.

* [[Television Geography]]: With regards to Fremont, Michigan; while they avoid exterior shots when Cooper is in town, the real Fremont isn't a college town as the film describes (it's actually the hometown of [[wikipedia:Gerber Products Company|Gerber Products Company]], best known for baby food and life insurance). Plus, the previous agent is described as having driven off a canyon road; [[The Mountains of Illinois|there are no canyons anywhere near Fremont]].
* [[Ten-Minute Retirement]]: Super Dragon, aka Brian Cooper, has retired happily at the beginning of the movie. [[Department of Redundancy Department|It doesn't last.]]
