Aboard a liner bound from New York to Florida, Baron Von Schmidt has stolen some jewelry and some important papers, double-crossed and killed both of his partners, and escaped. Sandra has also left the scene of the shooting, to the dead men's stateroom, where Michael was still gagged and tied to a chair. She lets herself into the stateroom with a skeleton key, and frees him.
Sandra has some private detective credentials, and uses them to team up with the ship's captain and his officers. They return to the dead villains' stateroom, where they find Von Schmidt hiding under a false bottom in an oversized steamer trunk. He's arrested with no further trouble.

Synopsis for Biff Brody and Pop Beaner: "Branie's Den"
Biff and Pop are chasing some villains down the highway, in their open top car, when they have a near-collision with a milk truck, which then has a full-on collision with a big fast sedan. The sedan's occupants are knocked out and almost killed, when the car catches fire, but Biff drags them both to safety. One rallies himself awake and pulls a gun on Biff; these are the very crooks that they'd been chasing! The gunman gloats for a second or so, long enough for Pop to get behind him and whack him unconscious with a swung milk can.
Leaving the milk truck driver in charge of the two captured hoods, Biff and Pops resume their interrupted raid on Branie's Den, a gangster hide-out that they intend to attack from two sides, with submachine guns. They split up and hike their way into position. Biff charges inside and beats the daylights out of Branie, who was in the middle of beating up a girl. A lookout belatedly starts shooting, from an aqueduct on a trestle, pinning Brody down. Pop Beaner inadvertently causes a complicated accident in which the sniper is swept off the field by a fast-traveling giant log. Brody and Beaner truss up both gunmen and row away with them.
