Synopsis:
Following the capture of a gorilla dressed as the Red Tornado, Scribbly's boss publishes a story that the hero was a hoax. Ma Hunkel dons the costume once more to confront the editor, but she falls off a window ledge and gets stuck on a flagpole. When racketeers learn of the hoax, then step up their criminals efforts again. Anxious to show faith in their hero, Dinky and Sisty don their own costumes of their own and become the Cyclone Kids. They attempt to stop the crooks, but are cornered. At that moment Hunkel falls from the flagpole onto the crooks. With another rescue attributed to the Red Tornado, the newspaper announces that the hero isn't a hoax after all.
