After several flops, Jane becomes the "100,000,000th" visitor to the library and wins a rare edition of "Treasure Island." She tosses the book in the trash but two criminals show up to steal it, because it contains clues to the location of a stolen payroll. Joan foils the crooks and recovers the loot.
