What happens
Britt Reid, publisher of the Daily Sentinel, and his secretary Lenore Case pursue a numbers racket after a small-time operator is arrested for murder. Reid offers a reward for information leading to the killers, prompting threats and a warning letter. When Reid is abducted by a gunman in a green cab, his valet Kato tracks the car to a hideout, where the pair must face the racketeers. The story follows the Green Hornet's efforts to expose the gang and rescue the publisher.

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.
