What happens
The Blue Beetle, a masked crime fighter, works alone against a narcotics gang. He ties up Officer Mannegan at police headquarters and steals the fingerprint file for Joe Bugsmagotti. Along the way he rescues Commissioner Bellamy's daughter from kidnappers on the city streets and takes the gang's hideout on the waterfront. The episode continues into the next morning, when a rumored plot against an army aircraft is raised in conversation with Dr. Franz and Dan Garrett.
A large city with police headquarters, a darkened downtown street, a waterfront warehouse, and an army flying field.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
