Synopsis:
While helping to stop a flash flood near Blue Valley, Kid Flash injures his ankle. Pete Barnett, a classmate of Wally West, helps Kid Flash to a nearby cabin to recover. When they enter the cabin, the boys discover three bandits inside. The crooks lock the boys in a room, then leave to committ a robbery.
Pete believes physical ability is the only way to escape. Kid Flash encourages Pete to use brain power to escape the locked room. Together, the boys create a small explosion that opens the door. Then they track down the bandits and turn them over to the police. Pete decides that he should study more often, rather than relying solely on his physical ability.
