Transcript

Beethoven, weeping down upon the underworld, a smashed ganglin, comes the mysterious, all-powerful character who is a problem to the police, but a considerable law. In reality, Dan Garris, a rookie patrolman, loved by everyone but suspected by none of being the blue beetle.

As the blue beetle, he hides behind a screen of mask and a suit of impenetrable blue chain armor, flexible as silk, but stronger than steel. Today's episode of the Fox feature, the Blue Beetle, is the second part of the story entitled The Underworld Goes Underground.

Reginald Dunlap, head of the Dunlap Construction Company, has asked his friend Dan Garrett to make a private investigation of the many mysterious accidents that have occurred during tunnel operations under the Eastern Valley River. Due to certain political angles involved, Dan tells Dunlap he'll get the Blue Beetle to do the job.

As the Blue Beetle, Dan Garrett, disguised as a tunnel worker, makes an investigation, but is discovered, and after a fight is ordered into the airlock by the superintendent of the job to be decompressed before ascending to the surface.

With the Blue Beetle in the airlock is a man named Burke, a faithful employee whom Stanley, the superintendent, dislikes and has just discharged. As the first episode ended, Stanley and some of his harlings are decompressing the air in the chamber more quickly than his say, in the hope that the blue beetle and burk will be

killed as a result. As our story opens, we are in the airlock with burk and the blue beetle. What are we going to do, blue beetle? What chapter near pressure is going down so fast I can feel the crabs coming out in my legs.
