It's 1906 in San Francisco as Joe Fitch begins a banking job. One night, he is enthralled with a performer, Lily D'Arcy, whom he asks out, and which angers Big Mike McCullum. They have a fist fight and McCullum swears revenge. Sandman overhears the threat and tries to prevent Joe from gunning down the crook. An earthquake hits as Joe's fires the gun, and the theatre burns, and Joe thinks he's guilty. Sandman sees someone else fire the shot. Fast forward to 1944: an old lady, named Lily, reads an article in the paper that it was Palmer, not Fitch, who killed McCullum and she is much relived.
