- [Narrator] This is the embassy

of the tiny country of Baklava.

It serves as the shrine of the Golden Spider God.

It is worshiped by the Baklavians,

for it remains a force of peace,

although they are surrounded by warring powers.

- How long will the Golden Spider be on display?

Is this the first time it's been out of Baklava?

This guy would be terrific on "I've Got a Secret."

- How much is the Golden Spider worth?

- To those who believe, everything,

more than life itself.

- Wow.

That much, huh?

- I think I know what you can get me

for my birthday, Lori.

(ElectraCom whirring)

- Something's up at ElectraBase.

- Sounds like trouble. - Yeah.

- [Narrator] Trouble indeed, Judy,

for the Golden Spider is not the only spider in the embassy.

(ominous music)

(transition whirs)

(Spider Lady laughing)

- It goes well, Spider Lady?

- Beautifully, Spinner.

The Golden Spider will be mine this day,

and Electra Woman will steal it for me.

(Spider Lady laughs)

Come, we must set the traps.

(Spider Lady laughs)

(transition whirs)

(dramatic music)

- What's up, Frank?

- More fun and games?

- Yeah, yes, this is, or this will be the Electra-X.

It's in its final stages of development.

- Show us what it can do.

- All right, if you'll just punch up the basic program

with a variable 113 minus X grid

on the CrimeScope computer.

(computer beeping)

- There we go, Professor.

(Electra-X beeping)

- This should come in handy in the event

you have to search a place in a hurry.

- Talk about getting the inside scoop!

- Great gimmick for Halloween!

- I still have to flesh out the details,

but soon I'll have it on a micro cylinder model

to attach to your ElectraComs.

- Terrific.

But you didn't bring us all the way back here

just to show us this.

(computers beeping)

- That's right, there uh,

there was something else.

(transition whirs)

- [Narrator] In a hidden chamber far below the embassy,

the Spider Lady spins her evil web.

(ominous music)

- Come into my parlor.

Ah!

- We've done as you asked, Spider Lady.

The trap is set.

- Good. (Spider Lady laugh)

Now we have but to wait for Electra Woman and Dyna Girl

to leap at the bait.

(Spider Lady laughs)

- The bait, Spider Lady?

- The Golden Spider!

Electra Woman will find, however,

that a much more deadly spider awaits her.

My little lovelies.

Oh, my little beauties, there you are.

(transition whirs)

- The Spider Lady!

- Yes, CrimeScope informs us

she's smuggled her way into the country.

- Oh, that's easy for her.

She's a master of disguise.

- Isn't she the one who escaped

with the crown jewels of Kowloon?

- Right, disguised as the prince himself.

- Electra-tricky!

- Strange that she would arrive

the same time as the Golden Spider.

- Do you think?

- Right, maybe not so strange.

Come on, Dyna Girl, we're going back to the embassy.

(upbeat music) (computers beeping)

(transition whirs)

- [Narrator] Arriving at the embassy,

our heroines cautiously approached the entrance.

(tense music)

- Okay, Dyna Girl, let's not take any chances.

- Right, I'm activating ElectraScan.

(scan whirring)

Hey, Electra Woman, we're picking up something.

- Right, and I've got a feeling it's something for us.

Put your Electra-Force Shield on standby, just in case.

- Already done.

(gong crashes) Electra-wow, spiders!

(upbeat music)

No doubt leading us to the Spider Lady's web.

- I'll go after that one. - And I'll take that one.

Watch yourself.

- Electra-Beam, do your stuff!

(beam whirring)

(spider panting)

- Hold it!

Stop!

Now you can't escape!

(Electra Woman yelps)

(Spider Lady laughs)

- What was that about escape, Electra Woman?

- So we meet again.

You'll excuse me for not shaking hands.

- Ah, Spider Lady.

What a tangled web you weave.

- Well of course, Leggs.

What did you expect?

- [Narrator] A tangled web indeed.

Electra Woman is unable to reach ElectraCom,

and seems at the mercy of the Spider Lady.

(gong crashes)

Electra Woman is trapped in Spider Lady's web.

- I have special plans for you, Electra Woman.

- And we have plans for you, too.

- Spider Lady, her hands!

- Now with just a quick adjustment of my ElectraComs.

(alarm blaring) (tense music)

Dyna Girl, Dyna Girl.

Come in, Dyna Girl.

- Yes, Electra Woman.

I've captured one of Spider Lady' henchman,

and he's not planning to go anywhere for a while.

- [Electra Woman] Good work, Dyna Girl.

I'm on the trail of Spider Lady herself.

- Keep in touch.

- I'll write every day.

(upbeat music)

- Welcome to my parlor, Electra Woman.

- Said the Spider Lady to the fly,

and the fly said to Spider Lady,

your days of crime are over.

- Oh, we'll see about that.

Leggs.

(Spider Lady laughs)

Yes, haha.

My thanks to your Electra-Force Shield,

because now you are my prisoner,

and you are going to steal the Golden Spider for me.

(Spider Lady laughs)

- You know better than that, Spider Lady.

Nothing in this world could make me do that.

- Well, we'll see about that now, won't we?

Leggs my pets, Leggs.

(Leggs chuckling)

(eerie music)

Come, my hungry beauties.

We have a feast for you, haha.

Ooh, my little darlings.

Oh, my pretties, haha, yes.

- If you think you can scare me

into stealing the Golden Spider for you,

you are sadly mistaken.

- Ha, scare you into stealing the Golden Spider?

Why Electra Woman, how you misjudge me, watch.

(tense music)

(Spider Lady laughs)

Yes!

(Spider Lady laughs)

(energy whirring)

- Looks aren't everything, Spider Lady.

Dyna Girl will know it's you

the moment you open your mouth.

- I wouldn't be too sure of that.

My zerograph is the ultimate duplicator.

- You've even duplicated my voice!

- And your walk, and every one of your mannerisms

down to the smallest detail.

No one will realize that I am the Spider Lady.

And now, I'm sure you're anxious to meet my pets.

(Spider Lady laughs)

(transition whirs)

- Electra Woman, Dyna Girl, please come in.

Where are you? (static crackling)

- Right here, Hef.

I've got a new hobby, a spider collection.

- Dyna Girl, where is Electra Woman?

She doesn't respond.

- She's off on the trail of Spider Lady.

I'm sure she can handle herself.

- I hope you're right, Dyna Girl,

but it's not like her to ignore the ElectraCom signal.

(transition whirs)

- Frank's been trying to reach you.

I was beginning to think you might be in trouble.

- Electra Woman in trouble?

I've merely had my hands full,

trying to get this two-legged spider

to lead me to Spider Lady.

- I haven't been able to get anything

out of this one, either.

What should we do with 'em?

- I'm afraid we'll have to let them go.

- Let them go?

But, you-

- Well, as far as we know, they haven't done anything wrong.

- Well, I guess you're right.

(ElectraCom beeps)

(both sigh)

(tense music)

- And now, we'd better head back to ElectraBase.

- But you said we should keep our eye on the Golden Spider!

Oh, I get it.

You mean we should go back

to see if Professor Heflin has the new Electra-X Ready?

- Yes, right, that's it.

We'll have to pick up the new Electra-X.

Yes, it may come in handy.

Now, you go and pick up ElectraCar,

and bring it around in front.

I'll wait for you right here.

- You're putting me on.

You've never let me drive ElectraCar.

- Well, I think it's about time

you learn to take over the controls.

You can never tell when it may really be necessary.

- Right, I'll meet you out in front.

- Great.

(transition whirs)

- [Narrator] As the unsuspecting Dyna Girl

races toward ElectraBase

with the cunningly disguised Spider Lady.

(dramatic music)

(transition whirs)

The spiders are moving ever closer to their prey.

Will our superheroine manage to escape

the Spider Lady's trap?

- [Narrator] We'll find out what happens

to Electra Woman and Dyna Girl in part two,

after these messages.

(tense music)

(computers beeping)

- Hi, Frank.

- Hello there, hello.

(tense music) (computers beeping)

You all right, Electra Woman?

- Yes, yes I just, I have the strangest feeling that,

well that the ElectraBase might be in trouble.

- ElectraBase? - No way!

- Oh right, I guess it is invulnerable.

The Electric-X Frank, is it ready yet?

- You mean the Electra-X?

Yeah, it's ready and right here in this micro cylinder.

Now you just insert this into your ElectraComs,

then push up the basic sequence

with a variable one 13 minus X grid.

- The basic sequence, right, yeah, well I'll just,

oh, I'm sorry, I am really butterfingers.

- Just watch where you step,

don't step on it, whatever you do.

- [Spider Lady] Maybe it rolled over here

behind the CrimeScope.

- [Narrator] And so it seems that Spider Lady's plan

is going much too well,

as she plants her destructive spider device

behind CrimeScope.

While, back in her hideout,

the hungry spiders move closer to their prey.

- Poor, hungry tarantulas.

They've been starved for so long.

I fear it'll take so much to satisfy their appetites.

(spiders laughing)

(transition whirs)

- It wasn't back there, Professor.

- Well, don't worry about it, I'll find it later.

I've given a spare to Dyna Girl.

- Our own portable X-ray to see through anything!

Hold it, Electra Woman, you're on candid-

- Wait, Dyna Girl.

- What's the matter?

It's perfectly harmless.

- Oh, yes.

I just, I think a little caution is advisable,

at least until the attachment is perfected.

- Is there something-

- Look Professor, the Spider Lady's

not going to wait forever to make her move.

- Yes, yes, you're right.

You'd better get back to the embassy in a hurry.

- Yeah, come on Dyna Girl.

(tense music)

(transition whirs)

- Well Electra Woman, what can be keeping Dyna Girl?

- Could it be she has not yet seen

through Spider Lady's disguise?

Soon, it will be too late.

- It's not over yet.

There's still CrimeScope.

(transition whirs)

- Electra Woman, what's happening?

- [Narrator] Back at ElectraBase, Heflin remains unaware

that Spider Lady has left another evil spider

to do its dastardly work.

(tense music)

- Oh no, you'd better wait here, Dyna Girl,

and be sure to use the Electra-X

on anybody who approaches.

Now Spider Lady could be in any disguise,

even the most unlikely ones.

- Right. - Good.

- Ah, be careful.

Don't get caught in any sticky webs.

(transition whirs)

(upbeat music)

- Electra Woman, I am honored.

- We've been alerted that Spider Lady

may attempt to steal the Golden Spider God.

I'm going to have to move it to a safer place.

- But I was given no such instructions.

But surely, it will be safe with you.

- I assure you, it's as valuable to me as it is to you.

(ominous music)

- [Narrator] It seems that Spider Lady

will have succeeded in two places,

because, at that very moment.

(transition whirs)

(computers beeping)

(smoke hissing) (intense music)

(explosions booming) - What, what's going?

What do, who's, what's happening?

(explosions booming)

What's gone wrong?

(explosions booming)

(transition whirs)

(tense music)

(ElectraCom whirring)

- What's up, Frank?

- It's CrimeScope, we've been sabotaged.

I think we're going to lose-

(static crackling)

- Power!

Sabotage?

But who could have gotten into CrimeScope?

- [Spider Lady] I think we'd better head back

to ElectraBase.

- [Dyna Girl] But you said we should keep our eye

on the Golden Spider.

- [Spider Lady] The Electric X, Frank, is it ready?

- [Frank] You mean the Electra-X.

- Oh, Electra-wow!

No wonder Electra Woman has been acting so strange.

She's got to be the Spider Lady in disguise.

But, what has she done with Electra Woman?

- [Narrator] So, the Spider Lady has put CrimeScope

out of commission.

But what about Electra Woman,

held captive in the forcefield of her own ElectraCom?

- Of course!

Thank you, Spider Lady.

- Spider Lady has tricked herself.

- Exactly, by knocking out CrimeScope,

she destroyed the Electra-Force Shield

that held me prisoner.

- We've gotta stop her.

Remember, she's lost her power.

- No, still she is too much for us.

Let Spider Lady deal with her.

(transition whirs)

(tense music)

- Dyna Girl, oh terrific.

The monk just asked me to take the Golden Spider idol

back to ElectraBase.

- The masquerade is over, Spider Lady.

- What?

Dyna Girl, are you all right?

The Spider Lady was right here.

She was disguised as the monk.

I got here just in time to keep her

from stealing the golden idol.

- Knock it off, you Electra-phony!

- [Narrator] Electra Woman frantically searches

for Dyna Girl.

- The Electra-X.

If only my ElectraCom were working.

How did you manage to knock out CrimeScope?

- Look, we're wasting time.

Now, we've got to get out of here.

(tense music)

- Put down the idol, Spider Lady.

- Electra Woman!

Electra Woman?

- It's me, Dyna Girl.

- But she said she was!

- A fantastic zerograph machine, Dyna Girl.

Worthy of our own Professor Heflin.

- No, Dyna Girl, no, I am Electra Woman!

Look at me, look at me closely!

- Electra-wow!

I, I just don't know.

- Give up, Spider Lady.

You made your mistake when you knocked out CrimeScope.

- This, this is r-r-r-ridiculous!

I- - Electra-ridiculous!

If you really are Electra Woman,

what's Frank's middle name?

(Spider Lady gasping)

- All right, Spider Lady.

(Spider Lady gasping)

Okay, Dyna Girl, Frank's middle name is-

(Spider Lady wailing)

- What's going on?

- It looks like the masquerade is over.

- Electra-wow!

(transition whirs)

(computers beeping)

- Finally, huh?

(computer beeping)

Electra Woman, Dyna Girl, come in.

Electra Woman, Dyna Girl!

(ElectraComs beeping)

Electra Woman, Dyna Girl, come in!

- We hear you, Frank, loud and clear.

- Did I ever tell you what a beautiful voice you have?

- Well, I always wanted to be

a news announcer on television.

Will you cut that out?

Now go find Spider Lady,

you're working on a limited power source.

- We're on our way, Frank.

Come on, Dyna Girl.

(upbeat music)

Oh, oh, sorry about that, ma'am.

- Hurry, Dyna Girl,

Spider Lady's still around here somewhere.

- Yeah, and probably in some sort of-

- Disguise! - Disguise!

Electra-wow!

That old lady!

Electra-X, you're on.

(beam whirring)

(tense music)

- Guess who.

- And I gave her back her package, electra-dumb!

(Electra Woman laughs)

(energy whirring)

(Spider Lady laughs)

- Yes! (Spider Lady laughs)

- Electra-Beam on!

(beam whirring)

(Spider Lady gasps)

- My idol!

You've taken my Golden Spider God,

but you won't get the Spider Lady.

(Spider Lady laughs)

- She's heading for the roof.

(upbeat music)

(computer beeping)

- Going up!

Lady's clothing, housewares, rooftops, and...

- And Spider Ladies.

(gong crashes)

- Caught you in your own web ability.

(Spider Lady gasps)

(tense music)

(transition whirs)

Isn't that terrific, Heflin?

- We made the cover story on "Newsmakers."

- And how about that prison uniform?

That's the Spider Lady's best disguise of all.

- Let me see that, let me see that.

Spider Lady captured by superheroines.

Superheroines, anyone we know?

- [Both] Why, Frank!

You made a funny.

(both laugh)

(upbeat music)
