Synopsis:
Lois and Lana visit Kandor with Vitar who loves them both and hopes to marry one of them. Vitar is punished for leaving the city without permission, so the girls are left on their own temporarily. Each is given a new job with Lois becoming a detective and Lana an archaeologist.
Once his punishment sentence has been served, Vitar begins courting the girls again. However neither girl can forget Superman. Also Vitar's ex-girlfriend Serena Vol makes life difficult for the girls.
Finally Vitar sends the girls on a competitive mission to catch a crook. He promises to give the winner a super power serum so that she can return to Earth and marry Superman. Both girls prove themselves, but the serum proves ineffective anyway. The girls decide they both prefer Earth and return home. Vitar reunites with Serena and marries her.
