Synopsis:
June Robbins’ plane crashes on a small island. The Challengers track her to the island where she has fallen under the influence of a magical lamp. She gains mystical powers, but her will is bent to the control of a criminal from the mainland, Charles Agar.

June is forced to attack the Challs, capturing Rocky and Red in the process. The spell of the lamp begins to wear off however, and the remaining Challs are able to free June and their comrades. They escape the island with Agar in tow before the inhabitants can recapture them.
