(Narrator) The Wizard threatens to stop all transportation

with the remote control machine.

Harrison, railroad magnate,

comes to make a deal with the Wizard,

but the latter's men take him prisoner.

What's the matter with that clock?

Look at my watch, the second hand's racing.

[Crackling]

What's causing all this?

That's what I'd like to know.

Come on, let's go.

[Police siren wailing]

I'm not going to fall for that trick.

That siren's on Batman's car.

Maybe not. I've seen another car heading this way.

We've finished Batman and Harrison,

what are we waiting for?

What about Batman's pal?

Forget him, let's get out of here.

[Both coughing]

There.

[Tires screeching]

Batman!

I thought that blast had finished you.

It would have,

if there hadn't been a small cellar under that cabin.

That's right.

I'm glad to see you're all right, mr. Harrison.

I am, thanks to Batman. How about you?

Oh, I guess I'll live.

Is there any reason

we can't resume our trip to Gotham city?

You'll find your ignition is burned out,

thanks to the unknown Wizard.

I'll have to take you in my car.

(Vicki) Hold it!

Who are you?

Don't mind her. She's always going around

taking pictures nobody ever sees.

I'll send a repair man out, Martin.

OK, mr. Harrison.

Never mind the car.

The boys are going to the new hideout.

Report Earl and me at the headquarters.

OK.

[Buzzing]

[Whirring]

You've made this trip a lot.

Where's this sub taking us?

One reason I'm still alive

is that I don't ask too many questions.

[High-pitched beeping]

[Beeping stops]

[Machine whirring]

Are you sure that both Batman and Harrison were finished?

I'm positive. No one could have lived through that explosion.

Good. Then I can proceed with my plans.

I've already sent an ultimatum to the railroads

through comm. Gordon.

The Wizard threatens to paralyze

the entire railroad system

with his remote control machine,

unless he receives 5 million dollars today.

Preposterous.

I refuse to even consider such a demand.

How does he want the money delivered?

It's to be in old, unmarked bills,

and is to be thrown from a train at a designated spot.

I tell you, I won't consider it.

It's up to you to stop this criminal.

The only way to do that is by strategy.

You have a plan?

Yes. It'll call for some cooperation

by the treasury officials.

Also, we must let information leak out

to a certain broadcaster.

Sergeant.

[Buzzer buzzing]

This is Barry Brown reporting.

Here is startling news:

The railroads have surrendered to the Wizard,

on his terms.

The 5 million dollars he demands

will be thrown from a train at a designated spot.

This proves my previous claim

that the police are helpless

against the remote control machine.

Well, this is one time

when we know how Brown got his story.

Well, is real money going to be delivered to the Wizard's men?

Yes. It's old bills

that the government was going to destroy

and replace with new currency.

What if the Wizard gets away with all that money?

He won't.

The bills have been painted with a radioactive substance.

We'll use a Geiger counter and track them down.

Sounds great.

Not only that, when the package is opened,

and the money is exposed to the air,

it'll immediately burst into flames.

Well, where do you and I come in on this?

We don't.

But Batman and Robin will be there

when the package is thrown from the train.

There's another plane about 5,000 feet below us.

Probably a lookout plane.

They can't see us at this height.

It looks like the pirate plane we saw before.

Calling car 6. This is lookout plane.

Calling car 6. All clear.

This is car 6. Was the money thrown off the train?

Yes, it's in the shallow draw, just east of the junction.

Good. We'll pick it up.

The car that came out of the brush

is headed towards the junction.

They're after the money.

You land the plane and get to our car.

I'll make a delayed jump so I can get down faster.

[Brakes screeching]

This is car 6.

Are you sure you weren't observed?

Yes, I'm sure.

Good. Meet car 4, transfer the money,

and then carry out my orders.

[Engine starting]

[Brakes squealing]

(Robin) What happened?

They transferred the money to another car. Move over.

The radioactive money should be giving off signals by now.

Check your indicator.

[Tires screeching]

What does it say?

We're on the right track.

[Geiger counter buzzing]

Turn to the right.

This highway leads to the industrial section of the city.

But it'll be dark before we get there.

That won't make any difference to that gadget.

Here, you see what you can do with it.

I'll call headquarters and let the Wizard know we are here.

OK.

Neil calling headquarters.

Neil calling headquarters.

Come in, Neil.

We have the money at the South street warehouse.

You want it brought to headquarters?

No, I'll go there personally.

Stand by.

(Neil) Right.

Sounds like it's getting louder.

[Geiger counter buzzing loudly]

Yeah, I guess we're getting hotter.

The closer we get to that warehouse,

the more signals we'll receive.

We'll take a look.

[Brakes squealing]

Stay here and watch.

They sure wrapped this stuff up tight.

You'd be careful with 5 million bucks, wouldn't you?

[Whistles] Let me give you a hand with that, huh?

I thought I told you to stand guard.

[Thudding]

[Gun fires]

[Grunting]

[Groaning]

(Narrator) Is the faithless Jimmy

setting another trap for his sister?

What new scheme of the Wizard is this?
