Synopsis:
Superman visits the local prison where safe cracker Easy Pickins is scheduled for parole. Superman has convinced Pickins to reform and helps him secure a job as a showman and escape artist. However, Easy's old gang wants him to return to crime. Easy refuses their offer.

When Easy is invited to crack a bank vault, he succeeded. When the vault is opened, it has already been robbed. Easy is suspected, but Superman vouches for him. During his next performance, another robbery occurs. Easy is again suspected and arrested. Superman bails him out.

Easy's gang returns and admits they were responsible for framing their former boss. The reformed criminal still refuses to help them. The gang, who has secretly been working with Easy's manager Alphonse Swing, set Easy up to die. Superman comes to the rescue. He saves Easy and captures the gang.
