Con man Harry Colt finds a rocket containing several objects near Smallville. Colt sells the objects to a curio store owner claiming that they were given to him by Superboy. The store owner begins selling the objects as Superboy souvenirs, but the objects prove dangerous. Superboy finds the rocket and exposes Colt. Though his own name has been cleared, Lana witnessed Clark become Superboy when one of the trophies burned through Clark's clothes. Fortunately Lana bought a trophy that caused daydreams. Though she uncovered Superboy's secret, she is convinced that the vision was false.
