Synopsis:
Wonder Woman visits Hollywood as a consultant for an amazon movie. Actress Tempra Menta is struck by a strange condition which removes the color from her face. Make-up artist Kosmet claims to have the cure and charges Tempra a fee for it. Soon many actresses are struck with the condition, resulting in a fortune for Kosmet.

The state attorney general suspects that Kosmet is causing the plague. He blames Wonder Woman for recommending that Tempra try the cure in the first place, so he puts the Amazon in jail. Etta and the Holliday Girls are then forced to investigate Kosmet alone. They fall into a trap which causes Wonder Woman to escape jail to save them. When the Amazon is also caught, she summons Steve Trevor and together they defeat Kosmet. Then those affected by Kosmet's plague are cured.
