Synopsis:
Jimmy Olsen suddenly becomes super-heavy whenever Superman is nearby. Neither the Man of Steel nor Jimmy knows what causes the sudden heaviness, so Superman decides to keep his distance. Jimmy is forced to summon Superman to get him out of trouble, but using his wits Jimmy manages to use his increased weight as an advantage.

Jimmy eventually realizes that his signal watch is behind the strange weight. He smashes the watch which ends the problem. The watch was altered when Superman used his x-ray vision on it. Finally Superman repairs the watch, restoring it to its original condition.
