Synopsis for "Mad Merlin!"
Merlin's sarcophagus is discovered in England and shipped to a new York museum. When the experts open the coffin, Merlin emerges alive. Deciding to become the power behind the country's leader, as he was with King Arthur, Merlin tries to attract attention by sending a missile off-course, but Thor retrieves it. Suspecting magic, Thor confronts Loki who tells him Merlin is responsible. Later, Merlin infiltrates the White House but Thor intervenes. In their battle, Merlin uses the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Pentagon as weapons but Thor counters each one. Finally, Thor becomes Don Blake in Merlin's presence, pretends this is one of thousands of forms he can assume, and convinces Merlin that he has powerful magic at his command. Terrified, Merlin agrees to return to the sarcophagus. Thor recommends the experts seal the crypt forever.
