Synopsis:
Star Hawkins is once again forced to pawn his robot secretary Ilda for money. While in the pawn store, Ilda tunes in on a broadcast from the League of Five Planets. She learns that a spy is trying to steal Earth defense secrets. Ilda is able to secure her release from the pawn shop by warning the owner about a con artist trying to sell him a phony autograph book.

Ilda goes to the home of Star's girlfriend Crystal Mera, looking for her boss. She reveals her findings to the woman, who turns out to be the spy. Mera and her henchmen try to destroy Ilda, but Star arrives with the police to capture them. Star knew that the woman was a spy and was using her to get to her allies.
