The scientist meets with failure after failure in his experiments, but presses forward, and Chemo becomes filled with greater and greater quantities of various chemicals.

After attempting to create a growth formula that will enlarge plants to help feed starving nations, the scientist again is unsuccessful and pours the remnants of his project into Chemo, finally filling the massive vessel. These chemicals cause a massive reaction that results in Chemo coming to life and growing into a building-sized giant. Chemo proceeds to poison the scientist with a lethal dose of the growth-formula chemicals, and then goes on a rampage, only to be defeated by the robotic Metal Men.
