Synopsis:
Superman and Jimmy Olsen watch as Tommy creates a clone of the Guardian in the Project. The trio leave together, then Superman resumes his identity as Clark Kent. Morgan Edge sends Jimmy and Clark to investigate a UFO along with Don Rickles look-a-like Goody Rickles. Clark enters the ship and is transported away, while the others are captured by Inter-Gang. The Guardian, Jimmy, and Goody are then fed pyro-granulate which will cause them to burst into flame within 24 hours.
