P. Easton Binney, tired of writing up the "geezer meetings" for the Daily Sentinel, gets advice from the publisher that he should "keep [his] eyes open"; While having a late meal at a nearby diner, Binney spots big-time underworld figure "Buckles" Barbosa and follows him to and photographs him at a meeting with the Green Hornet!; What's actually happening is that Barbosa wants "out" and the Hornet can arrange a Witness Protection Plan-like set-up for the hood and his family in exchange for ALL his records, which of course won't be used the way the retiring racketeer expects; Binney manages to get back to the Sentinel's offices with his picture, which Britt, who is well aware of the negotiations, can't block from publication without raising too many questions.
