What happens
Buzz Corey and Cadet Happy of the Space Patrol track the criminal Polodor to his hideout in the Great Martian desert after two million stolen credits are taken from a Tri-Planet vault. Earlier, the pair traced radioactive stolen bills and discovered the loot hidden under the floor of a microfilm laboratory that serves as a front for Polodor's gang. Buzz and Happy are overpowered by the gang's men, who then turn their attention to escaping with the money. Polodor claims he has launched a robot spaceship toward Lowell City, and the two officers must act quickly to stop it.

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.
