Synopsis for "The Power of SHIELD!"
Fury finds a way to signal S.H.I.E.L.D. without a radio, delaying disaster. But after Sitwell realizes Fury is the pilot, he still orders the launching of a "Strato-Mine", which could ignite the very atmosphere. Supreme Hydra gets news that Laura Brown-- the daughter of his predecessor, who turned traitor and helped Fury a year before-- has been captured in Egypt. Donning a new disguise as "Emir Ali-Bey", he leaves in his "Hover-Limousine" to reach there by nightfall. As he departs, he thinks that Fury will die without ever learning his true identity. Fury manages to turn the plane around, and, discovering where the Overkill Horn was hidden, dives from the plane, to be picked up by a S.H.I.E.L.D. submarine. The plane-- followed by the Strato-Mine-- obliterates Karnopolis, its HYDRA base, and all within. Soon after, Fury & a S.H.I.E.L.D. squad rescues Laura from more HYDRA thugs. President Johnson congratulates Sitwell on a job well done, while Fury worries that the Supreme Hydra is still on the loose.

Synopsis for "The Hiding Place!"
Fury thinks back on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s 1st battle with Hydra, when Laura Brown-- who had joined only to convince her father to give up his mad dream of world conquest-- saved his life and helped defeat them. As the President pushes thru a pardon for her, she's being transported by Gabe & Jasper-- whose car is attacked by Hydra. Fury & Dugan, in a captured Hydra saucer, go to rescue the trio. The Supreme Hydra dons a new disguise, that of "Agent Bronson", a S.H.I.E.L.D. man currently their prisoner. "Bronson" arrives at the Heli-Carrier just in time to join the team racing to help Fury. After helping capture several Hydra thugs, "Bronson" gains Fury's confidence.
