Three crooks disguise themselves as Super Apes and kidnap the Llongo king in order to loot the jungle dwellers. When they capture Patrolman Smythe, the Phantom rescues him, then falls captive himself. The crooks tie the Phantom to the pole of a burning hut but he escapes, confirming local legends that the Ghost Who Walks cannot die. After capturing the crooks he turns them over to Smythe, telling him to take credit.
