The doctor checks Barbara's
heartbeat. According to her father's will, she has been kept
free from all germs for the entire 21 years of her life. |
|
When Barbara goes to
the sanitarium on a secluded island that her family owns, she
doesn't realize it is actually a base for rumrunners, and the
so-called "doctor" she meets is the leader of the gang. |
|
Barbara and Thirsty
McGulp trade "remedies." He tries her medicines and
she tries his whiskey (of course, she thinks it's medicine!) |
|
Barbara still thinks
Todd is a doctor, but he has something more in mind than her
medical condition! |
|
Barbara doesn't know
that Wallace Roberts is really a reporter working undercover
in the rumrunners' gang. When hijackers attack the sanitarium,
he helps her escape through a second story window while the fighting
is going on. |
|
Their escape is cut
short, though. Pulling a gun, Todd says, "I'll show you
what I do to squealers!" |
|
Barbara has been keeping
the gang from coming up the stairs by throwing kegs of whiskey
and anything else she can find at them. She has now found a large
bottle of chloroform and is about to toss it over the railing. |
|
Everyone has been rescued,
and Barbara checks her heart one more time to make sure it's
still beating. |
