Synopsis:
Wonder Woman returns Steve Trevor to America in her invisible plane. She leaves him at the hospital, then goes to work for promoter Al Kale. When she learns that Trevor has recovered she quits her stage job and visits the hospital. She also meets a nurse named Diana Prince, whose identity she purchases with money earned with Kale.

Disguised as the nurse, Diana visits Steve. When he recovers he returns to work with Army Intelligence and chases down a spy ring. Diana saves Steve’s life again and helps him bust up the spies. When Steve returns with tales of a Wonder Woman, people are skeptical, but his nurse Diana Prince knows the truth.
