Synopsis for Hop Harrigan: "Rescuing Chinese Refugees"
Hop's jealousy over Gerry and Maurice boils over and harsh things get said. Hop takes off in a huff, in Prop Wash's plane, no permission, no clearance, no nothing. He flies out over the Pacific, and manages to get lost for awhile, then ends up in China. There's a flood, and Hop gets a chance to use the plane to rescue a bunch of refugees from it. A reporter gets the story and relays it to America.
Hop returning home as a big hero goes a long way toward smoothing things over with Prop, but what does Gerry have to say?
