Enrique Vidal (Frank Thornton) has duped Sir Walter Barling, an esteemed banknote printer to produce 5 million pesos for the fictional South American country of Gueron.
It is all a ploy by General de Santos to destabilise his country's currency. The waltz in as the saviour and establish a dictatorship.
Barling's wife calls in Ben Manfred MP. He is a co director of the company and tasked to save their reputation and save Gueron.
The story was made at a time when many central and south American countries were banana republics. This story demonstrates how fragile democracy can be.
However Manfred has no real plan in this episode. He really seems to be making it up as he goes along to try to get the Pesos back.
