Synopsis
  • Continued from last issue. Nadir and Arcot grab their parachutes and jump out of the plane just as it crashes into the water below. Nadir swims to the surface to see Arcot struggling with his parachute. The two men are dragged below into the depths of the sea, as Nadir tries to free Arcot. Finally, he manages to cut the chute's strings and pull Arcot back to the surface. The sea tosses and heaves, driving Arcot and Nadir up onto the beach of an island. They find an old hut near the shore, thinking it a good place to seek shelter from the storm. The old seaman inside welcomes them in and offers them warm blankets and coffee.
  • Elsewhere, the Mary-Lou's captain is braving the storm, completely inebriated. Job alarmingly points out another vessel which is on a collision course with them...
  • That night, as the foresters sleep, Will sneaks outside, and with his knife, cuts the hide binding Robin Hood...
  • In the tower, the guards carry Marjorie's limp form down the winding stairwell. They discover that she is still alive, and just in shock from a bullet that grazed by her head. They allow her to rest in one of the guards beds, with her father Lord Barlow, keeping watch.
  • The next day, theplane flies Carey and Sleepy to China. What new adventure awaits them there?
  • Somewhere else in the palace, Benar has disguised himself as a civilian, and now seeks out the high priest in his tower. Benar tells the priest of Jadev's capture, and he agrees that they must help him. The High Priest leads Benar to the dungeon, where Sandor is currently fighting for his and Jadev's life against Rajah's men. The High Priest and Jadev wait in the shadows for the guards to come back with Jadev in tow, not knowing that Sandor has already beaten the guards and escaped.
  • Steve escapes the Men's grasp with a few combat moves, and quickly races back out into the swamp. Myra tells the men to forget about him and prepare the wedding feast. In truth, she had been worried that Steve would have been killed if she hadn't said something.
  • Back at headquarters, Sergeant Carey's description of the girl matches that of Lola Manners, the daughter of a mighty arms manufacturer. Sin Fu is blackmailing her father to supply his own army with weapons they can use to overthrow the chinese government. Because they've already seen Sin Fu, the captain sends Carey and Sleepy out to China to assist the authorities there.
  • It is hours before they spot the monastery, surrounded by campfires. Ian takes two men with him to help find a way inside the Monastery walls. Stumbling in the dark, he finally comes across the passageway in the hills that was used by the mongolians to kidnap him. Ian takes his men into the tunnel and follows the path. All the way over at the other side, three mongols stand guard over the cave's exit. With their guns drawn, Ian prepares the men, telling them that they'd only get one shot each before they became overwhelmed...
  • Later, as the feast commences, Steve again makes an attaempt to rescue Myra. He fights off King Olam's tribesmen until they started to flee. Steve and Myra wonder at this, when they suddenly become surrounded by large turtles who crawled out of the swamp on a hunger march.
  • Sandor heads to the far side of the dungeon, when footsteps are heard. They come from behind a locked cell door. Thinking to gain another ally, instead when Sandor opens the door, he sees a giant black leopard readying itself to pounce...
  • Continued from last issue. After hearing Elsa's scream, Captain Stewart rushes over to see two mongols coming towards her. After subduing the first, he rushes to the second and knocks the gun from his hand. The mongol charges at Stewart, causing them both to roll down the hill. He finally knocks out the mongol with one mighty strike. A gunshot is heard from above, Elsa has killed the first Mongol who was about to shoot at Stewart.
  • The english fleet is overwhelming that of the spanish armada, setting their ships ablaze with gunfire. The commander of the spanish flagship orders a retreat from the harbor. Quick lets them run, so that they can warn King Philip of what happens to those that declare war on England. With the rest of the spaniards surrenduring, Quick heads back to dock, and then races to the tower. He fears the worst for the woman he loves. But when he arrives, Lord Barlow awaits him at the foot of the tower, and tells him that Marjorie is alive and well. With relief, Quick enters the room where Marjorie rests, and kneels by her side. As soon as she recovers, Quick tells her, they can be wed.
  • One day, some girls walk into the Junior Federal Men Club's headquarters and ask to join them. The boys laugh at them, saying that a girl can't catch a criminal like they do. Angrily, the girls head out in the street and decide to split up to look for any type of crime and stop it, proving the boys wrong. Rita, one of the girls, sees a woman shoplifting some stockings from a clothing store. But when she tries to stop her, the woman grabs Rita and calls for the manager, claiming the Rita was caught stealing. When the other girls get there, Rita is sobbing while trying to explain what happened. The manager doesn't believe her and goes to dial the police. But one of the other girls has unplugged the phone line, giving them time to investigate. When the woman guarding Rita is distracted, they leap upon her and tear her purse away from her grip. They open it up and see many stolen objects from the store. The manager calls the police and has the woman arrested.
  • Several miles away, indian chieftains are sitting around a fire. They hate the white men that have intruded upon their land, and now with the addition of Quick and his crew, they are planning ways to get rid of them. Dark Owl, the greatest of the chiefs, makes a fiery speech about attacking their camp with arrows and spears. The other indians, fueled by his words, dress up in their warpaint and scream threats to the white men as they perform the war-dance.
  • Continued from last issue. As Sandor is freeing Jadev and locking the guard in the cell, the dungeon door suddenly slams shut behind them. Even with all their body's strength ramming into it, the door will not budge.
  • In a clever ruse, Captain Quick has lured the spanish fleet into the english harbor where an ambush has been prepared. His fiance, Marjorie had been struck down by spanish bullets when she bravely tried to replace the English Flag atop the guard tower. Quick had seen this act, and believing Marjorie to be dead, he directs the ship to fire upon the spanish without mercy.
  • Detective Sergeant Carey and his partner Sleepy become trapped inside a room quickly filling with gas. Locking the door behind him, Sin Fu escapes through passageway, with the girl as his hostage. Just when they thought it was the end, the police break into the room and save them. After Sergeant Carey explains the situation, the captain orders the police to bust down the locked door. Then he and the officers hurry down the tunnel after Sin Fu. They come close to the exit where a dock can be seen, but a trap has been laid out, and when one of the men step on the trip-wire an explosion occurs up ahead! The dock, and any evidence against Sun Fu, is destroyed.
  • Inside the shack, Jess once again started to search for a way out. When he moves a packing crate to use as a stand, so that he can try prying the roof open, Jess spots a small trapdoor concealed beneath the crate. It leads to a dug-out underground tunnel, with another trapdoor leading up on the other side.
