Don Winslow infiltrates a criminal hideout using a rubber face disguise to impersonate the villain Rubberface and foil a plot to steal naval plans. After a violent confrontation with Rubberface and his crew, Winslow defeats the criminals and rescues a young boy named Homer from the gang. The story concludes with Homer joining the Navy, inspired by Winslow's heroism, while Winslow and Captain Lance are caught in a devastating flood that threatens to drown them until they are rescued by the sturdy ark-like boat built by Captain Noah.
