Crooks who also want the treasure surprise the boys. Superboy allows them to leave in order to protect the boys. However, he tricks the crooks into returning to prison. Superboy then helps the boys discover that the chest also contained printing plates to print counterfeit currency. The boys then turn the plates over to the FBI.
