As the Hornet and Kato tear into the German commandos, the gunshots alert the American troops stationed there and a major battle ensues. Helping out is the Yankee Commando, who is Lee Powell from "Project: Gladiator". As the Baroness continues her machinations, Britt touches base with Major Case and Commissioner Higgins. They realize that the Baroness is after President Roosevelt, who is scheduled to go on a train tour this week. As the train leaves the Boston Railways, an ambulance also leaves with a patient from the train. Suspicious, the Hornet orders Kato to follow the ambulance and then boards the train. He finds President Roosevelt and tells FDR that his life is in danger. When FDR ask how he knows all of this, the Hornet reveals his true identity to him. FDR then reveals that the real FDR is a prisoner of the Baroness and that he is a German spy. Before the Hornet can react, Captain Burke enters the room and pulls a gun on the unmasked Hornet.
