Synopsis:
The Question is captured and buried up to his neck by Colonel DeBeck. The Colonel and his men plan to kill him, but the Question convinces them that if he can survive buried longer than DeBeck that he will go free. DeBeck agrees to the terms and claims his men will honor the deal. However, when the Question successfully outlasts the Colonel's record, they plan to kill him anyway. DeBeck stands by while his men are about to kill the Question. Eventually, one of the soldiers finds his honor and stops of the others. DeBeck then shoots himself. His men soon follow. The one honorable man then digs up the Question before dying from his wounds.
