Plot[]
Danger!! Death Ray
Scientist Jean Karl Michael invents a death ray which, according to him, is for peaceful purposes. He arranges to demonstrate the ray to a group of European NATO representatives. As he is demonstrating it, a group of enemy agents disguised as NATO officials steals the death ray, kidnap the scientist, and escape. Following a pursuit and gun battle, the kidnappers flee in a helicopter which lands on a submarine and is discarded as the submarine submerges.
Agent Bart Fargo is given the assignment of retrieving the death ray and saving the scientist. He travels to Madrid where he finds the evil organization responsible for the plot. Bart Fargo becomes romantically involved with a lady when he hides in her house from the opposition, and he befriends an enemy agent who later helps him to stop the villains.
