Story - Honey and Sam Bolt are investigating cases of industrial espionage.The directors of a company which has been losing its secrets to competitors calls in the detectives without the knowledge of the manager, Harold Sutter, who is actually the head of the espionage gang. Miss Christie is Sutter's secretary and assists him in the crimes. The gang's method is to employ a female night club hypnotist to put businessmen in a trance, during which time they are conditioned to rob their own firms of the information required - it then passes into the hands of gang. Honey follows a woman who has made a pick up of information to a greenhouse. There Honey watches as the woman removes her disguise to reveal herself as Miss Christie. But Sutter appears and gets the drop on Honey. He explains the films are hidden there in plant pots, which are then sent out to the gang's customers. Sutter tells Honey he now plans to drop her in the ocean. Christie holds a gun on the detective while Sutter disappears to fetch the car. The smirking Christie allows Honey to use her compact to make up ("..go ahead - it's YOUR funeral, you might as well look good for it!"), not knowing it's a 2 way radio connecting her to Sam. Sam, in a police car on the way to her location, now knowing Honey is in serious danger, has the officer turn on the car's siren - the sudden noise distracts the gun-woman as intended, giving Honey the chance to chop the weapon out of Christie's hand; another karate chop from Honey sends the hapless henchgirl stumbling forward. The private eye picks up the gun, taking Christie prisoner. Sam soon shows up and deals with Sutter.
