Off the coast of Virginia. June, 1942 - Dawn. Captain Radl [JOHN SAXON] welcomes Lieutenant Wertz [PAUL SHENAR] off a Nazi submarine. One hour later, Major Steve Trevor [LYLE WAGGONER] and Yeoman Diana Prince [LYNDA CARTER] arrive at Aldrich Field, Virginia, to attend a test flight of a prototype named XPJ-1. Once in there they meet Peter Knight [CHARLES FRANK], the designer of the plane. Not far away Rald and Wertz watch the scene.    Steve will be the pilot but Colonel Radl and a group of Nazis intervene and in spite of Wonder Woman's presence, they steal the plane. Steve calls General Blankenship [RICHARD EASTHAM] in Washington, D.C. and under code Z, he activates a mechanism that makes the plane explode.    In Germany, at the Nazi Intelligence Headquarters, Lieutenant Wertz informs Hemmschler [KURT KREUGER] of the situation. Meanwhile in Hibbsville, Virginia, Radl is helped by a undercover Nazi agent. Radl is amazed with Wonder Woman's powers -specially her ability to deflect bullets with her bracelets- and he proposes to find out what is her source of power. And he informs Berlin about her.    Back in Germany General Ulrich [CURT LOWENS] asks Hemmschler how reliable is Radl's information about Wonder Woman. "A superior, very strong woman. If only we could learn the secret of her strength... and the bracelets she wears, the material from which they are made. Imagine, Hemmschler, a panzer group with tanks that are impervious to Allied guns. Submarines that cannot be sunk, aircraft that cannot be shot down..."    Meanwhile, Olympic Games are held in Paradise and the Queen [CAROLYN JONES] is amazed with her younger daughter's skills. She is Drusilla [DEBRA WINGER], Diana's younger sister. The Queen thinks Diana has spent so many time in the Unites States and sends Drusilla to search her.    Back in Washington, D.C., General Blankenship informs Steve that another test flight will be done in five days. Steve asks Diana to organize a dinner with Peter Knight and she offers her apartment and cooking skills for the purpose.    When Diana arrives to her apartment she finds the door open. She's suspicious that someone came in and whirls into Wonder Woman, but to her surprise when she opens the kitchen's door she finds her younger sister Drusilla. "Mother says to tell you that you've spent enough time in America. You should come home to Paradise Island and start assuming your role as heiress to the throne". Diana explains Drusilla the reasons why she must stay and battle evil to prevent the Nazis taking over the free world.    During dinner Steve and Knight talk about the new test to be made, but Major Trevor ignores that Knight is also a Nazi spy.    Later that same night Knight meets Radl, who tells him the importance of capturing Wonder Woman. "This mysterious woman and her bracelets. This matter has priority even over the XPJ-1. It's of incalculable importance". Knight tells him that Wonder Woman in related to Steve Trevor's group. Radl knows that Wonder Woman is in close contact with the War Department, so he plans to kidnap Gral. Blankenship and get Wonder Woman's attention.    Back at her apartment Diana's finds out that Drusilla is not there. She's walking in wonders discovering this new world to her. She's surprised by the language young Americans use and they way girl dress and asks Diana to get some clothes like that.    The following morning Diana introduces her sister to General Blankenship, who offers himself to take her for a ride on his way to Fort Belvoir. On their way to the Fort General Blankenship explains Drusilla about the Nazis and their plans to conquer the world. But half the way Radl and the Nazis intercept Gral. Blankenship's car and take him prisoner, leaving Drusilla alone in the car. "What would Diana do about something like this?"    At a gas station Drusilla tries to communicate to War Department but she's unable. Then she goes in search of the Ranger Station where they keep General Blankenship. She tries to spin like Diana would but she can't. Then she recalls how her mother taught Diana to spin and turn into Wonder Woman. This way she whirls, her bobby-pins flip aside and she turns into Wonder Girl! She tries to rescue Gral. Blankenship but she's is chloroformed and held prisoner by the Nazis who think she is Wonder Woman.    Later that day Steve and Diana investigate Drusilla and Gral Blankenship's disappearance, and finally find him, but there are no traces of Drusilla. Diana thinks she may be at her apartment but once in there she finds she's not.  Diana becomes worried since it's Drusilla's first time in the Man's World.    Drusilla is held prisoner by the Nazis in a deserted industrial area, a refuge for Nazi spies. Their objective is to find the source of power of her bullet-proof bracelets. Rald informs Berlin, and they ask him to be sure that she really is
Wonder Woman. Radl is told to use his weapon against to be sure that her bracelets are working. "Must find a way to make sure that your powers are really formidable".
