Rick is accused of stealing a top secret weather control device and it's up to The Super Sleuths to prove his innocence. So how do Isis and Captain Marvel fit in all this?
John and Richard begin the first of the two-part finale of The Secrets of Isis with "Now You See It..." In this episode, they discuss Brian Cutler's opportunity to play straight after several episode where he was the comedic foil, the potential for a Super Sleuths show, and why the end of the series at this point makes sense.

"Out of Focus"
October 16, 1976
An aspiring filmmaker captures a robbery on film. Now, the thieves are out to get the film, but he sees it as his ticket to success in a local film festival. Can Captain Marvel and Isis ensure this film makes it to the screen while keeping the young Spielberg safe?
It's the final episode of the Shazam! series as John and Richard discuss the location of this particular episode, the professionalism of Michael Gray, the clunky resolution to a story that Isis could have solved with a simple incantation, and Shazam/Isis fandom. Plus: We have two flashbacks of our own in this episode!

Moral: “We've all been faced by temptation - a chance to win a contest, maybe cheat on an exam or make some easy money in a dishonest way, but most of us know better than to fall for things like that. In today's story, Jim learned what Zeus meant when he said, 'Those who act dishonestly to win, walk in disgrace, perhaps even in danger.' So play it safe and play it smart. Don't be fooled by temptation. The honest way is the best way."

Isis
"Year of the Dragon"
October 9, 1976
A Chinese teen wins a prize for a competition at school and tries to avoid having her father show up for the awards ceremony. She goes to such lengths to avoid it that she places herself and her father in danger.
John and Richard are back in the RV and making their final stops along the highways and byways of the land exploring those two Saturday morning series of the 70s we loved as kids - Shazam! and the Secrets of Isis. We continue with an Isis episode, "Year of the Dragon". In it, the two discuss how 1976 was the Year of the Dragon, the Chinese stereotypes, and are confused by what the character of Julie has to be ashamed of in her father when he seems really cool.

Moral: "Always show pride for your culture and do not let a generational divide determine how you view your culture."
