Plot synopsis

This is the final part of the princess Sin story.

Prince of Mucar is in death bed. He is repentant of all the bad deeds he did during his life. In his remorse he wants to give away all his wealth to Bengali. His last wish is that the Phantom would guard the treasure on it's way from Mucar to Morristown. Omar, the representative of Mucar comes to meet president Luaga and informs him about this donation. But the president's office is bugged and Princess Sin comes to know about the treasure.
