Synopsis:
The Flash searches Central City for Sneakers Sneed and his gang. He passes an electric eye beam which clashes with his super-speed and causes him to crash into a door. When he gets up, Flash discovers that he becomes dizzy every time he tries to run fast.

Without his speed to aid him, Flash is still able to find the gang. However, they are able to escape. Flash pursues them in a taxi cab. He then catches up to the gang and beats them without the use of his powers.

The next day Barry Allen visits a doctor who diagnoses an inner ear disorder which caused his dizziness. After taking the proper rest and medicine, Flash is able to safely use his powers again.
