Part 2: "The Secret of the Reptile Girl"
Synopsis:
Lois attends a nuclear experiment and is transformed by a radioactive accident into a reptilian. The nuclear physicist she was working with is also transformed. However, they scientist and reporter are really imposters. The real Lois was taken prisoner during the experiment and held captive.
Lois escapes by drugging her guard, then she contacts Lucy and Jimmy. Lucy helps capture her imposter, then she joins the physicist to learn more. When she returns home, Lois discovers that Lucy was overpowered and the imposter escaped.
Lucy and Lois then track down the imposters. They watch as the pair is abducted by tiny aliens. Lois returns to the Daily Planet to report her story and discovers the reptilian imposter at her desk. Both imposters reveal themselves and turn out to be Superman and Supergirl.
Superman then explains that he found a scout to an invasion fleet, who planned to abduct the physicist. He and Supergirl disguised themselves so that they would be taken instead. Working together, the two heroes were then able to thwart the invasion and return to Earth.
