Chapter 4 The Shadow Strikes
The weeks episode begins right were we left off in episode 3 with Foster in hot pursuit of Slade and his captive Vera Strang. The high speed chase takes them along a dangerous road with a steep cliff down one side. At the end of episode 3 we are left to think it was Vera and Slade who go over the cliff be it was actually Foster but luckily he manages to bail before its too late. While escaping Slade ditches Vera on the side of the road just in time for her father to save her and take her back to the museum. When they arrive back Strang notices that the lock has been forced and when they sneak inside they see Bradley the haulage company president snooping around the museum. Allowing him to sneak out unnoticed Strang sends Vera to follow him to find out what he knows about the Jewels.
Meanwhile The Whispering Shadow sends his goons after Slade to recover the package but after we are treated once again to a high speed chase and a high speed shoot out Slade jumps from his car and disappears into the woods but drops the package as he tries to get away. Once opened they notice the jewels have been taken by Slade and they must return to the Whispering Shadow with their tails between their legs. Strangely The Shadow is upbeat and is happy with the documents inside the package.
Foster catches up with Vera back at the haulage company warehouse and confronts her once again about her father and weather or not he is the Whispering Shadow. While pleading the innocence of her father they over hear the voice of The Shadow blackmailing the company Vice President Jerome. The Shadow threatens to expose who Jerome really is using the documents he found in the package in return for the jewels. Foster sees this as a golden opportunity to catch the Shadow and expose Jerome himself. But it wont be as easy as he thinks because the Whispering Shadow is not ordinary man and he knows Fosters next step even before Foster knows himself. After a brief exchange of punches Jerome manages to escape while the Shadow stops Foster and uses his radio ray powers to stop Foster once and for all from interfering in his business. Boom the episode ends with a big flash of lightening .
