Synopsis:
Supergirl rescues a boy from drowning. The boy has amnesia and is entrusted to the care of Midvale Orphanage. He does not speak English so Linda Lee is assigned to teach him. While secretly performing super deeds, Linda’s secret is uncovered by the boy. When Supergirl discovers that the boy can see in the dark, she realizes he is from another planet.

The boy is the prince of Korvia. His ship was damaged while fleeing his world. The boy is accused of killing his aunt and uncle. Supergirl decides to help the boy and travels with him back to Korvia.

At the boy’s trial, the method of the royal family’s death is shown. The couple was transporting in a special device and their pattern was lost. Supergirl uses her super speed to try many different patterns and restores the King and Queen. The prosecutor Zoxxo was responsible for their loss, and he is arrested. Supergirl returns to Earth where a Linda Lee robot double covered for her absence.
