What happens

Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels is an American animated mystery comedy series created by Joe Ruby and Ken Spears and produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions for ABC. The series aired during the network's Saturday morning schedule from September 10, 1977, to June 21, 1980. In the series, the caveman superhero Captain Caveman is discovered within a block of ice and thawed out. He joins a trio of mystery-solving teenage girls in various missions. The hero has superhuman strength and flight, but his powers could fail him in inconvenient situations. Among the Teen Angels, Dee Dee Skyes is a Velma Dinkley-like amateur detective, Taffy Dare is the eccentric strategist who convinces the Captain to follow her instructions, and Brenda Chance is an easily-frightened girl who habitually serves as the victim in damsel in distress scenarios.
