Synopsis:
Congo Bill and Professor Kent travel down an Africa river after having taken the treasure from a lost city. When their engine stalls, Bill decides to eat before finishing repairs. He goes for a hunt and befriends a monkey which he names O'Toole.

While Bill is away, the Skull returns and captures Professor Kent and the boat. Bill and O'Toole then perform a rescue. The Skull is left on shore while Bill repairs the engine and makes his escape.
