That's bad.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Who's the octopust?
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Why we can discovers the power in the underworld?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Our best men of the work the second.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Dog so far, well, I want you to assign one
of your best men to God.
Speaker 2 (07:17):

over to my office. I'd like to discuss a plan
of action to check make the octimist and his gang.
(07:49):
In the meantime, Dan garrett Is bought with the old
man whom he saved from.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
The burning building.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
He learned that just before the explosion, the old man
who was the janitor of the factory, or a bearded
man with a lake disappearing up the stairs just outside
the boiler room. Danny decided to keep an eye out
for a bearded man with a limb were next find
him in the little apothecary shop of his brand and
advise us not to Franz and s.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
What do you make of it, Daddy?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I think it's a diabolical plan of wholesale robbery backed
by terrorism and blackmail. I don't understand how could any
gang of thieves hope? As I see it, the mastermind
of this gang has a well thrown out plan.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
First, his unholy.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Cruel terrorizes at the city by a.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Series of explosion Yes.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Then they plan to suddenly plunge the city into darkness
one night, and while the black hours on theire systematically
rob jewelry stores, banks and first storage plans. And what
makes you think that the mayor got a telegram today
warning him that unless he ordered the city's power supply
shut off, something unpleasant will happen to him or his family.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Which that's preposterous.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
I never heard of such unmitigated nerve. These men are
desperate characters and their chief.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Is a cold blooded field.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
What's the mean of doing about it?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
He's talked to the Commissioner of police. See commissioner is
sigmatic and the god the man's young son. He's also
wanted every another one gang hang out from.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
A city raider.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Every racket tear big or small, is to be erected,
brought in for questions and what are you going to do.
I'm gonna put on my blue Beetle alarmor and take
a little trip down to the municipal power plant. I
have a peculiar feeling the Blue Beetle will come to
grips with some of that gang tonight.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Out into the night bed.

A Blue Beetle in his super dynamic space, there to
stay the city's power plant from destruction. A fr al
sale burglary throughout the city. From another point, a fast
water car filled with dark visits. Man is feeding through
all the same destinations. Will I meet or will want
out feed the other to prevent or commit a crime.
As the Blue Beetle nears his destination, he sees another
(10:00):
the car full up in front of the power planning.
That's a suspicious looking car there, h mm. Several men
are getting off, tough looking bunch. There's one with a
bed in a limb.

You are Tom a souvenir to remembers the blue beetle.
By gee, blue beetles.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
You're swell, and so the blue Beetle brought another gang
of criminals to justice, turning him over to the police,
but himself remaining hidden behind the disguise of the Blue Beetle.
(22:38):
Later that day, after setting Tom the Mayor's on ashore
at the city Dock and phoning the police where to
find the Octopus and his court, he disappeared as the
Blue Beetle to turn up later at doctor Franz's little
apothecary shop as patrolman Dan Garrett.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
Do you say, Dan, the octopus was about to shoot you.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
With this electric ray gun you brought that you.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Yes, he threatened to burn me to a crisp in
my metal armor.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
M what a fiendish idea, but very ingenious.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
I'd have been mosted alive without a clues to the
cause of my death. Of it, that hadn't have been
for young Tom Rodgers sneaking from behind and knocking slid
eye out with that chailer. Yes, yes, well, I I'd
better invent a non conductive lightning for your Blue Beetle armor,
just in case you run into another electric ray gun.
Speaker 3 (23:25):

slot machine racketeers? Can the Blue Beatle protect amusement seekers
against dishonest exploitation. These questions will be answered in the
next episode.

That's bad.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Who's the octopust?
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Why we can discovers the power in the underworld?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Our best men of the work the second.

Dog so far, well, I want you to assign one
of your best men to God.

over to my office. I'd like to discuss a plan
of action to check make the octimist and his gang.
(07:49):
In the meantime, Dan garrett Is bought with the old
man whom he saved from.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
The burning building.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
He learned that just before the explosion, the old man
who was the janitor of the factory, or a bearded
man with a lake disappearing up the stairs just outside
the boiler room. Danny decided to keep an eye out
for a bearded man with a limb were next find
him in the little apothecary shop of his brand and
advise us not to Franz and s.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
What do you make of it, Daddy?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I think it's a diabolical plan of wholesale robbery backed
by terrorism and blackmail. I don't understand how could any
gang of thieves hope? As I see it, the mastermind
of this gang has a well thrown out plan.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
First, his unholy.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Cruel terrorizes at the city by a.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Series of explosion Yes.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Then they plan to suddenly plunge the city into darkness
one night, and while the black hours on theire systematically
rob jewelry stores, banks and first storage plans. And what
makes you think that the mayor got a telegram today
warning him that unless he ordered the city's power supply
shut off, something unpleasant will happen to him or his family.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Which that's preposterous.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
I never heard of such unmitigated nerve. These men are
desperate characters and their chief.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Is a cold blooded field.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
What's the mean of doing about it?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
He's talked to the Commissioner of police. See commissioner is
sigmatic and the god the man's young son. He's also
wanted every another one gang hang out from.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
A city raider.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Every racket tear big or small, is to be erected,
brought in for questions and what are you going to do.
I'm gonna put on my blue Beetle alarmor and take
a little trip down to the municipal power plant. I
have a peculiar feeling the Blue Beetle will come to
grips with some of that gang tonight.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Out into the night bed.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
A Blue Beetle in his super dynamic space, there to
stay the city's power plant from destruction. A fr al
sale burglary throughout the city. From another point, a fast
water car filled with dark visits. Man is feeding through
all the same destinations. Will I meet or will want
out feed the other to prevent or commit a crime.
As the Blue Beetle nears his destination, he sees another
(10:00):
the car full up in front of the power planning.
That's a suspicious looking car there, h mm. Several men
are getting off, tough looking bunch. There's one with a
bed in a limb.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
That's my man. Alright, man's the watchman coming up to me.

Speaker 2 (12:55):
How can the police protect the citizens of this vast
city against the depredations of this roofless band of arch criminals?
(13:33):
All night long, in the inky darkness caused by the
disabled powerhouse, a band of Goodlams and Underworld characters ravaged
the city, bombing buildings, setting fires, and rubbing banks and
jewelry stores.

If it's one time, I'll find out here I go.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
She's look at him gold.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Oh boy, can that blue beetle swim? The octopus is
shooting at him. The blue beetle's still swimming after the boat.
He's dating boy and he swims.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
He's dating. The octopus is out a bullet.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
A blue beetles dating on him.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
All the time.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
He he's caught the boat. He's climbing in the stern
of the boat. No, no, he's turning the boat over.
There goes the octopus right into the water. See the
octopus can't swim.
Speaker 5 (20:34):
He's calling for help.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Look at the blue beetle.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
She's diving under the yuppet boat. Got now it's now
he's turning the boat over the right side up.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
She missed.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
A blue beetle is sure strong. Now he's gonna arrescue
the octopus. Look at outstrop.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
He taste there there he's got the octopus. I he
shoulda let him drown.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
H he's rolling him up into the boat.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Now now he's starting the motor rock.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Running around the boat and here he comes. Boy, boy,
see blue beal that would well say, says what.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
About the octopus?
Speaker 5 (21:19):
Is he?
Speaker 2 (21:20):
No? No, he's not dead. He's just suffering from immersion,
and suppose you can tie him up while I get dressed.
He's harmless now I've got his gun. He certainly was yellow,
wasn't he when he ran out of bullets and you
ducked him. All gangsters are yellow and they haven't got
a gun. He's no exception. Well what are you gonna
do now? Gonna put on my blue armor and take
you back to the city limits in that boat and
throwing the police. But what about the gangsters in the
(21:41):
house there? They can't get off the island. You've got
the only boat and it's too far to swim to
the mainland. Mister, mister blue beetle, you've done an awful
lot for me, saving me most kidnappers and everything. Oh
that's nothing, Tom, Well my father will pay you a
big reward. The blue beetle seeks no reward, Tom, what
he does he does for humanity?
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Say, would you do me one more favor? Certainly if
I can?
Speaker 2 (22:06):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Would you give me that blue beetle off your helmet?
You are Tom a souvenir to remembers the blue beetle.
By gee, blue beetles.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
You're swell, and so the blue Beetle brought another gang
of criminals to justice, turning him over to the police,
but himself remaining hidden behind the disguise of the Blue Beetle.
(22:38):
Later that day, after setting Tom the Mayor's on ashore
at the city Dock and phoning the police where to
find the Octopus and his court, he disappeared as the
Blue Beetle to turn up later at doctor Franz's little
apothecary shop as patrolman Dan Garrett.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
Do you say, Dan, the octopus was about to shoot you.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
With this electric ray gun you brought that you.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Yes, he threatened to burn me to a crisp in
my metal armor.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
M what a fiendish idea, but very ingenious.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
I'd have been mosted alive without a clues to the
cause of my death. Of it, that hadn't have been
for young Tom Rodgers sneaking from behind and knocking slid
eye out with that chailer. Yes, yes, well, I I'd
better invent a non conductive lightning for your Blue Beetle armor,
just in case you run into another electric ray gun.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
That's a swell idea, you know, Doc. If I had
the uh just a minute, Dan, Hello.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Hello, is it Mannigan is Danny and Dan? Yes, it's yeah,
just a minute that I it's for you, Dan or
like doctor A lot of Don Garrett speaking, Hey Danny,
and why do.
Speaker 5 (23:44):
The police had bought it? Immediatelyy me?
Speaker 4 (23:46):
And you are gonna swear new assignment?
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Yes, where how did John Dorr's time ever? Oh?
Speaker 2 (23:51):

Speaker 3 (23:51):
Some slot machine racket is they're trying.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
To make John Doran star some crook a slot.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Machine Okay, Manigan, I'll be right over.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I've gotta get going.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Donc It's no assignment. Never a dull moment in this
business with You've said you craved action. Yeah, I'll san, Doc.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
I may be seeing you tonight.
