Crany strikes again at the new bus line. Johnny prevents the destruction of the buses and keeps Dall in business. Finally, Crany exposes himself as the saboteur. Johnny catches his actions on a newsreel, proving Crany's guilt. Dall is awarded Crany's buses in a settlement, so he keeps his line going.
