Synopsis:
Johnny Quick breaks up a robbery, but he is struck in the head. His memory is affected, and he forgets his magic formula. Without the formula, Johnny is unable to become Johnny Quick again.

Johnny attends a memory school, run by Professor Medulla. Johnny recognizes Medulla as a crook, so he plans a trap. Johnny then remembers that the last part of his formula is a letter. He tries the entire alphabet until he reaches the correct letter 'A'. He then stops Medulla and his men with super-speed.
