Synopsis:
Jimmy meets two aliens who give him the power to turn objects into gold with a touch. Jimmy impresses his friends with his new talent. When the aliens ask Jimmy for some White Kryptonite to destroy some plant life, they use the golden touch to turn it into Gold Kryptonite and use it against Supergirl. The aliens then reveal themselves as Atlantean criminals. Fortunately, Superman switched samples and the Gold Kryptonite was actually a harmless mineral, thus Supergirl does not lose her powers permanently.
