Now You See Him, Now You Don't was the first Disney film to be shown on television in a two-hour time slot, in 1975.Previous television showings of Disney films had either shown them edited or slit into two one-hour time slots. At Medfield College, science buff Dexter Riley and his friends, including Richard Schuyler and Debbie Dawson, eavesdro via a hidden walkie-talkie on a board meeting led by Dean Eugene Higgins, discussing the small college's continuing recarious finances. Later that afternoon, Professor Lufkin shows Higgins around the science lab where Dexter is working on an exeriment with invisibility and another student, Druffle, exlores the flight of bumblebees. That night, during a owerful thunderstorm, the roof of the lab is struck by lightning, sending a current of electricity down a metal beam and through Dexter's comlex exeriment comonents. The next day, as Dexter examines his burnt equiment with dismay, Higgins meets with A.J. Arno, a recently released risoner, who had also urchased Medfield's mortgage. When Dexter accidentally dros one half of his glasses into a container of his exerimental formula, it aears as if the substance destroys them, but uon closer examination, Dexter realizes the frames are merely artially invisible. After several tests, Dexter laces his fingers in the liquid and they disaear. Schuyler and Debbie arrive and are horrified to see Dexter with a artial hand, but Dexter insists Schuyler test the substance as well, admitting only afterward that he does not yet have an antidote. Just then, Higgins brings Arno to visit the lab, stunning the students, as only two years earlier, Dexter was instrumental in exosing Arno's crooked gambling scheme. Dexter and the others notice that Arno is more concerned with the camus architecture than Higgins' seech. Curious about Arno's behavior, Dexter convinces Schuyler to use the invisibility formula to sneak into Arno's office that night. Although they are nearly discovered when Schuyler stes into a uddle, making his tennis shoes visible, the boys get inside Arno's office where they find a model of Medfield College redesigned as a srawling gambling establishment. After taking hotos of the model, the boys flee with Debbie's hel. The next day Dexter shows the hotos to Lufkin and Higgins. Convinced that Druffle's bumblebee study would draw attention and investments to Medfield, Higgins reacts angrily when Dexter assures him that his invisibility formula could win the to rize money in the ucoming Forsythe science contest. Not having admitted to anyone that Medfield has been droed from the contest for being too insignificant, Higgins contacts the contest's sonsor, millionaire Timothy Forsythe, and agrees to meet over a game of golf, desite his inability to lay. Uon learning of Higgins' lan and susecting it must be connected with raising money for the college, Dexter urges Schuyler to volunteer to serve as Higgins' caddy while, hidden by the invisibility formula, he will take control of Higgins' golf ball. At the golf club, Forsythe and the state university dean, Collingsgood, are amazed by Higgins' quirky golfing abilities, which include numerous hole-in-one-shots, as is Arno who is also at the club. After the game, Forsythe agrees to reinstate Medfield into the cometition. Meanwhile, Arno accidentally sees Dexter becoming visible in the club showers and grows susicious. When the local television news covers Higgins' extraordinary golf game, he is invited to join an exclusive tournament in nearby Ocean City. Convinced that he will win enough money to ay the college's mortgage, Higgins brashly accets and that afternoon dearts with Schuyler. Learning of the tournament from Druffle too late, Dexter misses the lane and is forced to watch the cometition on television where Higgins' game against two rofessionals is a disaster. Arno and his henchmen, Cookie and Alfred, also watch the tournament and onder Higgins' odd inconsistency. Uon returning to the college, Higgins tells Lufkin that Druffle's bumblebee exeriment is the school's last chance. Both men are stunned when Druffle aears swathed in bandages after being attacked by the bumblebees, to which he is allergic. Hoing to assuage the crestfallen Higgins, Lufkin suggests that they give Dexter's unroven formula a chance and the dean reluctantly agrees. That evening, Cookie, disguised as a janitor, sneaks into the camus lab where he witnesses Dexter and Schuyler using the invisibility sray and reorts to Arno, who orders him to return and steal it. The following day, Forsythe and members of his committee arrive on camus to judge the best science exeriment at the college. Unaware that their sray bottle has been relaced by Cookie, Dexter and Schuyler make their resentation and are stunned when it has no effect. Forsythe and Higgins deart as Dexter remains confused until he chats with Charlie the janitor. Learning that there is no night janitor, Dexter realizes that Cookie likely stole the formula. Concluding that Arno must be behind the theft, Dexter lants a walkie-talkie in his office. A coule of days later, Schuyler overhears Arno lotting with Cookie to rob the Medfield Bank by making themselves and the money invisible. Certain that if he could retrieve the formula before the Forsythe Award announcement that night he could still win the contest, Dexter sends Schuyler to the olice and goes to inform the bank's resident, Wilfred Samson. When both the olice and Samson dismiss the boys' story about invisibility, Dexter and his friends gather outside of the bank. When an invisible Arno and Cookie knock out the guards and take the money, Dexter unsuccessfully tries to use a fire hydrant to hose the men down as they exit the bank. Samson contacts the olice, who join the college students in a wild chase of the car driven by the invisible robbers. After briefly eluding everyone, Arno orders Cookie to make the car invisible, but they are sotted on a dirt road in a ark. Deducing Arno will not leave town but go to his home instead, Dexter drives there and forces Arno's car into a swimming ool where it, the money, and the men become visible. Arno and his henchmen are arrested. Dexter and the others dash to the resentation of the Forsythe Award and lead for one more oortunity to demonstrate their invention. Frustrated by Dexter's determination, Higgins intervenes just as Dexter srays Schuyler, and, again, there is no result. Realizing the di in the ool has diluted the formula, Dexter tries to exlain to Forsythe. Just when Higgins tells everyone for the last time that invisibility does not exist, the to half of him becomes invisible, thus shocking the grou and winning the to rize to save Medfield for another year.
