Perfectly good houses sink into the ground after they're built. Reed suggests sabotage; a farmer blames \"swamp demons.\" When Johnny investigates, he sees strange men with blue skin using an \"electro gamma wave\" ray gun to make the houses sink. The farmer, confronted, proves to be one of them as well, and he uses an \"anti-matter electron\" gun to make Johnny's flame go out!
