What happens
Britt Reid, a young publisher who secretly fights crime as the Green Hornet, works to expose City Councilman Grayson as a bribe-taker. Reid's newspaper has been campaigning against a proposed ordinance that would make parking lot operators responsible for thefts and damage, and the councilman's vote may decide its fate. Reid, with his valet Kato, confronts Grayson at his home, and the Hornet plans a trap involving a messenger and a cash payment. Reid recruits Lenore Case, his trusted secretary, to help. The Green Hornet is a radio adventure series, and this episode, Miss Case Meets the Hornet, was first broadcast on February 3, 1948.
A city in the late 1940s, including a newspaper office, a parking lot, Britt Reid's apartment, and Councilman Grayson's home.

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.
