Con artist Roger Nolan sees Hocus and Pocus perform magic, unknowningly aided by Superman, at a party. He hires them to help convince a pair of misers to donate money to a phony foundling home. Superman once again aids the bumbling magicians to teach the misers generosity. As expected Nolan tries to double-cross his hired magicians and steal the money. Superman stops him and uses the money to build a new foundling home as promised.
