In "The Plot of Gold Part I," Samson comes to the aid of tribespeople fleeing a monstrous threat, only to be handed a gold coin minted by Queen Terra of Jerz—part of her scheme to spread her influence through trade, as long as the tribes fly her flag. When Samson sets out to uncover her true motives, he's suddenly caught off guard by a Choke-Foam Monster that engulfs him in a cloud of suffocating bubbles.
In "The Trail of Fire," a masked jewel thief leaves a trail of destruction—his radioactive aura melting robots, igniting cars, and deflecting even Tom’s psychic attacks. When Cindia discovers his burned footprints, Tom follows the clues to the thief’s hidden lair, where he uncovers the shocking truth behind the man’s powers. With a clever mental trap and a swift call to police, Tom stops the criminal—keeping his own secret abilities safe.
In "The Plot of Gold" Part II: Danger in the Vaults, Samson and Jo navigate treacherous tunnels beneath Wall Street, dodging booby-traps and ancient monsters to reach the hidden bullion reserve. With gold bricks in tow and Terra's thugs closing in, Samson and Sharmaine must outwit her shock rod and a surprise twist from Mindor—whose final move leaves the fate of the treasure, and Terra, hanging in the balance.
