Synopsis:
When a healthy man is sent to the hospital by his doctor, Kent Nelson is unable to diagnose his condition. He tries to contact the referring doctor and finds that the man has been tied up. After Dr. Fate rescues the man, crooks try to kill them. Dr. Fate tracks the crooks to the patient’s home where more crooks are digging a tunnel into a nearby bank. The crooks escape from Fate, and he is unable to identify their disguised leader.

When Dr. Fate learns that the crooks have stolen a book on veterinarian medicine, he tracks them to the home of canine movie star Din Din. The gang boss is impersonating another doctor and kidnaps Din Din. Dr. Fate rescue the dog, but again the crooks escape.

Dr. Fate then plans a trap at a local medical convention. The phony doctor exposes himself and Dr. Fate captures him.
