Charlie Chan is a government detective who plays a Chinese man but the actor is Caucasian and has a fake Chinese accent as well as mannerisms. Mr. Chan has a son that works with him who is Chinese and played by a Chinese actor, his son is stereotyped as being expensive and only into science. The story is about the detective going into a mansion and trying to solve the murder of a scientist, as he starts investigating more people start dying and he finds clues along the way. The sheriff who is also with him acts like his title is too big for him since he is nowhere near as smart as Mr. Chan. He ends up questioning everyone in the house ans its up to his judgment to accuse them of being guilty or not. Towards the end he puts all the pieces together and finds out who the killer is and who he has been working with. There is also a black character in the plot who is stereotyped as poorly worded and with the ability to run very fast.
Dr. Fu Manchu is also a Chinese character played by a white actor. His accent is very bad and his mannerisms are also poorly portrayed, he speaks a certain way in order to make his eyes look smaller, wears traditional oriental clothing and keeps his cool at all times. In this episode he forces two doctors to perform plastic surgery on Adolf Hitler in order for him to be unrecognizable and they can keep doing evil things. He ends up killing one of the doctors and thanks to the secretary of the other one and some extra help they get tracked down and their plans are stopped right on time.
