The story begins with a space crew, led by Captain Jerky, responding to an emergency call on a mysterious planet known as Bikini Planet. The crew faces various challenges, including a severe allergic reaction, a deadly snake's venom, and aggressive creatures. They eventually meet a native, Huso, who tells them that the planet was once home to the most beautiful women in the galaxy but was taken over by dark forces.
To gain access to the planet's secrets, the crew must complete three tests. They succeed in the first two tests, which involve obtaining a rare fruit and a specific leaf. However, they are unable to complete the third test, as they require a female crew member to enter the "Bikini Paradise," and their commander, Rose, is not responding.
The crew eventually discovers that the women of the planet have developed a natural defense mechanism, making them invisible. They use thermal imaging to reveal the women, but ultimately decide to delete the planet's coordinates from their computer and leave the women in peace.
The story ends with the crew flying away at half power, and a mysterious figure reporting to a superior that their plan has failed. The final scene shows the crew's journey continuing, with the soundtrack playing a song by Olivia O'Brien.
