Synopsis:
Lex Luthor and his niece Nasthalthia concoct a plan to kill Supergirl. Nasthalthia, or Nasty as she is known, goes to Stanhope and recruits members into a motorcycle gang called Nasty's Nasties. The group then begins terrorizing students in order to flush out Supergirl. Among their first targets is Linda Danvers, the very person Nasty is trying to find.

Supergirl uses her super-hearing to learn Nasty's motives. When she learns that Luthor is involved, she apprehends him. Then she deals with Nasty's gang. She convinces most of them to stop hurting students. However, Nasty is not convinced and begins planning her next move.
