Background
Baron Frederick "Freddie" Frankenstein is a professor of medical research in New York City, New York. His grandfather is Victor Frankenstein. Dr. Frankenstein is in a relationship with Elizabeth.
During the events of Young Frankenstein (1974) played by Gene Wilder
Dr. Frankenstein is giving a class to medical students. A Medical Student stands up and asks a question, after being corrected on the correct way of pronouncing Frankenstein as Fronkensteen. Medical Student brings up Dr. Frankenstein's grandfather, Victor Frankenstein and his experiments. The Medical Student asks the difference between reflexive and voluntary motion. Mr. Hilltop is wheeled out on a stretcher by Orderly in Frankenstein's Class. Dr. Frankenstein explains the difference by asking Mr. Hilltop to raise his knee and then Dr. Frankenstein acts like he is about to hit Mr. Hilltop in the leg, and Mr. Hilltop automatically raises his leg. Dr. Frankenstein then shows a method of blocking the signals from the brain and manages to knee Mr. Hilltop in the groin. Mr. Hilltop is placed back on his stretcher and Dr. Frankenstein tells Orderly in Frankenstein's Class to give Mr. Hilltop an extra dollar. Medical Student asks another question about worms and again brings up the work of Victor Frankenstein. Dr. Frankenstein insists Victor's work was doodoo and he is only concerned with life and dismisses class. Herr Falkstein walks up to Dr. Frankenstein with the wooden box and tells him about the will in the box. Dr. Frankenstein tells Elizabeth goodbye as he waits to board a train. Train Conductor calls all aboard and before he boards, Elizabeth tells Dr. Frankenstein she loves him and wants to get married. Dr. Frankenstein mimics tossing a kiss at Elizabeth who dodges out of its direction.
The train arrives in Transylvania, and Dr. Frankenstein gets off and is greeted by Igor. They debate over the pronunciation of the name Frankenstein and also Igor. After Dr. Frankenstein awkwardly comments on Igor's hump, Dr. Frankenstein meets Inga and they head to the castle. They arrive at the door and are greeted by Frau Blucher and Dr. Frankenstein and Inga are taken to their rooms and Frau Blucher bids Doctor Frankenstein goodnight after making sure he doesn't need any late night snacks. Dr. Frankenstein has a nightmare about not being able to escape his destiny. Inga wakes him up and they explore the sound of music coming from behind a bookcase. They find a passageway and follow it to a laboratory and find Igor there and at the far end the original Dr. Frankenstein's laboratory. They open a door and find Frankenstein's notes. The next morning they discuss his notes and note that any experiment would result in increased sizes of all body parts of those experimented on. Dr. Frankenstein follows a pair of Gravediggers with Igor and then he steals the body. As they are transporting it they are stopped by Constable Henry, who lets them go. They go to the brain depository and Igor steals a brain.
They put the body on a table and use electricity to bring The Monster to life, but fail. At dinner, Dr. Frankenstein is still upset about the failure of his experiment. The Monster comes to life and Dr. Frankenstein sets it free from the operating table. Igor lights a cigarette, which causes The Monster to go into a rage and he starts to strangle Dr. Frankenstein. Inga gives The Monster a sedative and Dr. Frankenstein asks Igor about the brain in The Monster. Igor tells him he took the brain of someone named Abby Normal. Inspector Kemp arrives at the castle and tells Dr. Frankenstein about the villagers fear of a monster. Inspector Kemp leaves after getting an assurance from Dr. Frankenstein that there is no monster. Frau Blucher finds The Monster and sets him free. Dr. Frankenstein realizes it was Frau Blucher who led them into the laboratory. The Monster breaks out of the castle and runs away.
Dr. Frankenstein disguises himself and is able to catch The Monster by attracting him by playing the violin. Dr. Frankenstein decides he is going to tell The Monster he loves him and tells Inga, Igor and Frau Blucher not to open the door to The Monster's cell no matter what. Dr. Frankenstein tells The Monster he is good, not evil and he loves him. Dr. Frankenstein presents The Monster at the Bucharest Academy of Science after being introduced by the Emcee at Frankenstein's Show. He has The Monster show off his abilities culminating in a dance number of Puttin' On The Ritz. One of the lights suddenly explodes during their dance number and the crowd turns on them and starts to throw vegetables at Dr. Frankenstein and The Monster. The Monster becomes enraged and is arrested.
Dr. Frankenstein tells Inga he thinks if he can switch some cerebral fluid of The Monster, The Monster would be more sane. Frau Blucher tells Dr. Frankenstein, Elizabeth is arriving at the castle that night. Elizabeth arrives and she wonders what exactly Inga's job is. Dr. Frankenstein plays the violin from the castle to try and attract The Monster, who arrives at the castle and Dr. Frankenstein transfers a portion of his brain to The Monster. Inspector Kemp and the villagers arrive at the castle and break inside and Villager starts to break the lab equipment. The villagers grab Dr. Frankenstein and The Monster, who can now speak, tells them to put Dr. Frankenstein down. The Monster tells Inspector Kemp that since he couldn't instill love into people, that he would instill fear into them. He then tells the villagers of the sacrifice Dr. Frankenstein made and Inspector Kemp offers The Monster his friendship. Later Dr. Frankenstein and Inga get married. In bed Inga, wonders what Dr. Frankenstein got from The Monster during their transference surgery and then discovers Dr. Frankenstein's now larger genitalia.
