Synopsis:
Fingers Beaumont, a master forger, begins a scheme to steal money from farmers by intercepting their bank statements. When Inza's grandparents are victimized she calls Doctor Fate for help.

Doctor Fate finds the crooks, but they use gas on him. His lungs are vulnerable, so he is knocked out. The crooks then try to dump his body, but when they take him outside he revives. Doctor Fate then goes after the crooks again. This time he is successful in apprehending them.
