Synopsis for Sandra of the Secret Service: "Resbian Revenge"
Sandra returns home from Gavonia to America via passenger liner. Two Resbian hit-men stalk her, bent on murderous revenge. One night luck is with them; Sandra strolls the deck alone, not far from the rail. They pounce, and attempt to throw her overboard, but a random young man sees the struggle, and dives into it. The scuffle is brief, and both Sandra and her would-be rescuer are heaved overboard. The liner sails ominously away as the two tread water in the cold North Atlantic Ocean.
