Members of Burleigh's former gang--"Monocle" Harry, Blanche De Vore, and Wong Fu--murder Burleigh, frame Yoda for the crime, and kidnap Yoda's wife, Blossom. In prison, a former member of the gang who was betrayed by Blanche aids Yoda's escape and his plot of revenge. Reappearing as a Japanese nobleman, Yoda pretends to be in search of a Japanese girl to impersonate the daughter of a rich merchant and is led to his wife's hiding place.
