The Webster family finds themselves aiding two Chinese soldiers who were fleeing from the occupying Japanese. When gunfire breaks out, Presto calls upon his supernatural abilities and diverts bullets meant for his kids into himself, and he dies. As he dies, he whispers the secret of his powers to Margo, one of which, hypnotism, is used to help free her brother and reporter Chick Benson from Japanese captivity.
