Synopsis:
King Pluto, the mythological lord of the underworld, kidnaps Lorrie, a Holliday Girl. While Wonder Woman learns about Pluto from her mother, the other Holliday Girls accidentally launch an experimental rocket ship into space. Wonder Woman is called to rescue the girls. She manages to catch the ship as it is blasting off, but she is carried into space also. Wonder Woman and the girls soon arrive on Pluto.

As they begin to seek out Lorrie, Wonder Woman and the girls are separated from their Earthly bodies and exist only as colored bodies. They are soon captured by Pluto, but Wonder Woman prevails. She rescues Lorrie and restores everyone to their natural bodies. However, their ship will not take off for the return trip.

Wonder Woman goes back to Earth on her own to bring back a dynamo to power the ship. Meanwhile, Pluto has also returned to Earth where he kidnaps Steve Trevor. Using Steve as a hostage, he forces Wonder Woman to surrender. Wonder Woman then uses the dynamo to power Pluto's castle. While Pluto is distracted she and Steve escape with the girls and return to Earth.
