Earl Everett -- Also know as Master Mind Excello -- is returning to the United States from an assignment in Europe when he overhears spies plotting against the United States. Spotted by the spies he is taken with them as they leave the sail ship aboard a boat that has come to pick them up. While tied up, he overhears their plans to go to New York and collect their vital papers before meeting Dr. Marko at the "super-power plant". Excello breaks free just in time to see the spies leave the ship on a plane, fighting through the remaining operatives, Everett boards a second plane and follows after them. Everett tracks that spies to an office building where he gets the drop on them and knocks them out. Disguising himself as one of the spies, he flies to the super-power plant to meet with Dr. Marko. Marko explains that the dynamos in his super power plant will bring a surge of electricity to major cities across America setting off explosives that have been placed. Before he can throw the switch the set off the explosives Excello reveals himself and the two struggle with each other. Excello knocks out Marko and gets past the guards. Once he gets outside of the plant he tosses in an explosive that destroys it. With the plot ruined, Excello contact intelligence and tells them the location of the enemy ship (which is sunk) and the spies he left tied up in the office building. When officers arrive on the scene they find Excello's calling card which reads "America first and always".
