- In the preceeding chapters Pearl Dare tries to clear the name of Captain Paine convicted for "losing" the Panama Canal defence plans. Knowing that the Silent Menace has the plans, she trails the spy to a ship where she learns of the plot to destroy the canal. She warns a US cutter about an enemy submarine healing for Colon. The sub is destroyed. Pearl and T.O. Adams try to learn more about the spy's plans.
- In this episode a tearful Bertha Bonn writes a letter to Major Brent giving him up to the other woman and delivers it to Brent's barracks. She learns that he is off on a secret mission. Back on the ship, Pearl and Adams overhear the plot to destroy the canal by exploding a series of mines. At the canal entrance, the conspirators take to rowboats to connect the mines under water.
