Synopsis for Sandra of the Secret Service: "The River Boat Racketeers, Part 2 (of 4)"
Deep in the swamps of Florida, at night, Sandra stalks two kidnappers, but gets spotted, and shot at with a submachinegun. She ducks, then follows as the gunmen reach a pier and board a river boat. Sandra swims underwater, overtakes the boat, boards it, and hides. The boat reaches a hidden pier, ties up, and the two kidnappers march their prisoner up the path to their hideout. It's a thatch-roofed hut, on stilts. Sandra eavesdrops as the two hoods meet up with their boss, but she falls into the river with a loud splash. The villains find her, tie her up, and fetch her back to the hut, then ignore her while they discuss business.

Synopsis for Radio Squad: "The Speeder"
An idiot speeder in a coupe almost runs down Jimmy. Sandy and Jimmy chase him down and pull him over, and write a ticket for the driver, who promises to show up for court, and leaves. But soon their radio alerts them to a dangerous fleeing criminal, who turns out to be that same speeder! They search the area for him, but he's gotten away. Jimmy and Sandy go back to HQ to tell on themselves, but the Chief doesn't sweat it.
Sandy figures that the banker's coupe hasn't been spotted by neighboring police departments because he's still in town, and they visit a lot of hotels, motels, and flop houses in search of him; no dice. They give up and return to the boarding house, where they share a room. Some household strife takes place, caused by the old landlady's new tenant, who turns out to be the felon they've been seeking. He tries to shove past them but he's busted.

Synopsis for Cap'n Jerry: "Cap'n Slegg"
In a South Pacific island port, Cap'n Jerry catches Cap'n Slegg being a sex pest to the local women, and confronts him about it, then smacks him off his feet with one punch AND snatches away his handgun. Slegg gets cautious and waits for his chance. The Island People's chief likes the cut of Jerry's jib, and gives him a handful of pearls.
That night Cap'n Slegg slips inside Jerry's quarters and steals the pearls, plus Jerry's and Charlie's guns, but drops a hat at the scene. In the morning, across the harbor, Cap'n Slegg's schooner is getting under weigh, while Charlie, under Jerry's direction, rows toward it in a dinghy. Jerry climbs aboard and again confronts Cap'n Slegg, who sics his whole crew on him. Jerry is winning this one-sided fistfight when Cap'n Slegg pulls out a rifle and tries to shoot at him, which is just before Charlie comes over the side, with a hand grenade. Negotiations ensue. Soon Cap'n Jerry has Cap'n Slegg's rifle AND his sack of pearls back.
As Charlie rows them back to Jerry's own vessel, he confides that the hand grenade was a fake, from a souvenir shop in Singapore.
