Synopsis:
Clark recalls his first day of school in which he accidentally used his powers. He nearly exposes his secret by squeezing a piece of coal into a diamond, swimming home at lunch in a water pipe, and using super strength on the see-saw. Lana Lang sees him handle some electric eels as well, but when she tells the teacher, she is not believed. In the present, Lana remembers the incident, but she can’t remember which boy picked up the eels.
