| Synopsis | The Green Hornet and Kato interrupt thieves raiding an electronics store, but are themselves interrupted by a man dressed as a cowboy and expertly wielding two Western-style six-guns, and they are forced to flee. They heard an associate call him Watkins, however, which allows them to identify him as Pistol Jim Watkins, a man with a fantasy of being a "gunslinger" which the Hornet plays to. Word is put out on the street that the Hornet will meet him in a man-to-man showdown, place and time included. Watkins is faced and defeated, but the masked men are surprised that he hadn't "staked out some...added insurance." In fact, he had, but that sniper was taken out by a strangely costumed woman, Sister 5 of...Sister-hood! |
