When a dying man asks for Mr. Wong's help (played by Boris Karloff), this begins an investigation of his murder and that of two others. Spies and a formula for a poison gas are involved.

Mr. Wong, Detective -- When a chemical manufacturer is killed after asking detective James Wong to help him, Wong investigates this and two subsequent murders. He uncovers a international spy ring hoping to steal the formula for a poison gas being developed by the first victim's company. The killer's identity is a real surprise.

Fun's in fashion when Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers (plus Irene Dunne and Randolph Scott) enter the ultrachic Parisian world of high fashion in Roberta. The third Astaire/Rogers film, a silky screen adaptation of the 1933 Broadway hit, has all that fans had some to expect from the pair's movies: a jaunty romantic plot, fabulous sets, memorable music and above all, incomparable dance magic to match the score. "The most pleasant moments in Roberts," Time reported, "arrive when Astaire and Rogers turn the story upside down and dance on it." Astaire may sing I Won't Dance. But his feet betray him.

The first in Monogram's series starring Boris Karloff as Chinese PI James Lee Wong, this mystery finds panicked industrialist Simon Dayton (John Hamilton) begging the intellectual detective for help, but Wong can't prevent Dayton's murder the following day. Inventor Carl Roemer (John St. Polis) and Dayton's partners are the chief suspects, but while Wong investigates, he's hindered by excitable police Capt. Sam Street (Grant Withers).
