"They are repeaters!"
Another episode and, after briefly pausing to resolve the cliffhanger, another racket: this time stuffing ballot boxes in order to rig an election, just like Donald Trump and his fellow vote riggers in today's USA, although their methods are of course quite different, more insidious, and more blaantly racist. Indeed it is, er, the land of the free.
This vote rigging, though, is very 1940, with the "repeaters" (very odd word, but Britt uses it in a newspaper headline so presumably it was current) driving around in cars with their hats and their guns, like a vote rigging Al Capone. It's all good fun.
And then the Green Hornet is driving a long a cliff edge and is blown off it. Bet they re-edit that a bit next episode.
This is all, as ever, just a succession of plotless set pieces. But what set pieces they are...
