She writes to Sherlock Doyle, the famous detective, asking him to protect her. Doyle goes to her mansion. The uncle and the butler, his accomplice, decide to kidnap Vivian at once. They take her to an underground cellar, with Doyle in pursuit. They tie her to a post and light the fuse to a bomb. Doyle is just in time to pick the sputtering bomb up and hurl it through a window. The pair then escape. Doyle later leaves the girl for a while. She is captured by some circus Indians and forced to don their costume.
