Synopsis:
Diana Prince is lured to a beauty club where a blindfolded girl attempts to learn secrets by reading her mind. As Wonder Woman, Diana catches the girl and learns that she was forced to do the bidding of the Cheetah. Other military secrets have been stolen at the club from officers' wives.

Wonder Woman learns that the secret location of an American base has been sold to the Japanese. She flies to the Pacific to stop the Japanese attack on the base. She allows the Japs to capture her, then tricks them into thinking the base doesn't exist. Finally, Wonder Woman escapes from custody and returns to America, having successfully protected America's interests in the Pacific.
