Dexter, in his quest for science, maintained a laboratory that was
developed for all types of research. After months of testing on a simple
monkey, Dexter concluded that the experiment would become nothing more.
Little did the boy genius know that his monkey was really
"Monkey," the super powered primate of Earth. Yielding
mysterious powers, Monkey has the ability to fly, super strength, and
laser shooting abilities, among other strengths.
With his powers, Monkey works for a secret global mission
rescue agency to protect the world from the danger of large monsters,
natural disasters, and intergalactic villains. Led by the Commissioner,
Monkey is often paired with secret Agent Honeydew on missions around the
world to stop evil in its tracks.
Despite saving the world more than Dexter, Monkey keeps his day job as a
lab testing animal, until psychically contacted by Honeydew to fly into
action. The world won't rest until its safe. Monkey won't rest until
he's had a banana.
Dial "M" for Monkey aired as a segment in Dexter's
Laboratory episodes for the first two seasons. By the third season,
Monkey's appearances were made into small cameos in Dexter plots.
