Synopsis
The Hornet's busting of an alliance of racketeers is not entirely successful, as one criminal appropriately known as Scarface gets away, but the encounter leaves him with a second facial mark, and he vows revenge. A trap is set in the tenement district, and it is only with the assistance of some residents that the masked men escape and leave Scarface and his cash for the police. A Sentinel headline proclaims, "City Uses Mob Money To Clean Up Slums."

Indexer Notes

Dialogue contains a reference to the Green Hornet TV series' episode, "Bad Bet On A 459--Silent."
