Merlin heads deep into the Himalayas in hopes of claiming a legendary diamond to bolster Britain's war relief funds. When the priests of the temple foolishly try and stop him, Merlin conjures up the great spider-god, Agor, then reaches the diamond while turning its defenders into bats, and impales the High Priestess on a spear. Merlin then completely destroys the temple and returns the diamond to Prime Minster Churchill himself!
