Synopsis for Alias the Spider: "Rocks Dolson"
A speeding car full of fur-coat hijackers runs a red light and smashes into a taxi, killing the driver and smashing the cab. Tom Hallaway was riding in that cab, with his bow and arrows. Dizzy and infuriated, the Spider crawls from the wreckage, gets up, and verbally rips into the getaway car's driver, when he suddenly recognizes gangleader Rocks Dolan in the back seat. Dolan barks an order for his thugs to shoot, but the driver speeds away instead. The Spider nocks an arrow, but before he can shoot, his crash injuries catch up to him and he topples onto the street.
Some time later, in the cheap cafe where Rocks and his gang hang out, a pushy stranger ("Bugs") shows up, and annoys Rock by repeatedly trying to introduce himself while Rocks is talking to his gang. This loser wants to join Dolan's gang and be a mobster; Rocks wants no part of him. Leaving the cafe, the wannabe gangster steals a cup of pennies from a blind pencil vendor and runs away. The blind man chases him, out into traffic, and gets a glancing hit from a redlight-running taxi. The Spider arrives on the scene and helps the old man up, and two soldiers drag the would-be gang-joiner back, and tell the Spider what they saw. One short conversation later, the Spider is sure that this punk is several cards short of a full deck, and also has learned where Rocks Dolan hangs out. He stomps into the cafe, starts a fistfight, beats down Dolan and his three thugs, and then waits around for the men in blue and the men in white to show up.
