Previously, Jimmy has been locked in a closet. Tumbleweed is again captured by the gangster. Then on top of that the Egyptian kidnaps him as well. And just where is Superman?
Meanwhile, clark is at the Daily Planet, and verifies the identity of Sidney Ryecroft, the Brittish explorer is the woman. There had been some dispute early on whether she was the explorer, or another man who was also posing as a magician.
Back in Clark’s apartment, Tumbleweed is about to be taken away to points unknown, when the lights go out and a mysterious whispering voice is heard.
PS: It seems to be an occasional ploy in old radio dramas to use a creepy whispering voice to stir up mystery, or spookiness. I find very annoying, hard to follow, and anything but mysterious, spooky, or creepy. Even though the whisper is meant to disguise the voice, I think I already know who the person is. I’ll also add at this point that this particular story line is not one of my more favorite ones. I would place it near the bottom of my list of good stories.
