Synopsis:
Henri Rinaldo has discovered a platinum idol while exploring the jungles of Brazil. He hides the idol and returns to America. His partner Fred Hart wants the idol for himself. He kidnaps Fred, then tries to murder his daughter Nana.
Zatara saves Nana's life, then follows Hart and Rinaldo to Brazil. The explorers are attacked by a tribe of dwarf people who are upset about their stolen idol. Zatara saves Rinaldo, but Hart finds the idol first. Zatara turns the crook into platinum, then returns the idol to the natives. The dwarf people reward Zatara and Rinaldo with platinum bracelets which they take home with them.
