Synopsis:
Ralph and Sue visit a casino in Monte Carlo. After Sue wins at roulette, a thief steals all the counters at her table. Elongated Man pursues the thief, but he gets away. Since the counters can only be used in the casino, the casinos doesn't worry about the loss.
Ralph still ponders the mystery. When a pickpocket takes Sue's last counter on the street, Ralph follows him. The pickpocket leads him to the thief. Ralph apprehends both men and their gang. The crooks are part of a spy ring. One of Sue's counters was intended for the thief and contained stolen microfilm. The robbery was staged to get the film back.
