Synopsis:
Superman and Supergirl astound their friends by speaking only the blunt truth for a day. Superman appears in court and a shady lawyer tries to force the Man of Steel to reveal secret information. Using tricks, Superman answers each question honestly, but without revealing anything critical. Lois and Lana try to get him to reveal which one of them he really loves, but he tricks them as well.

Later, Superman and Supergirl visit Kandor where a ceremony is being held. Their "Day of Truth" was in honor of a Kryptonian hero Val-Lor who inspired his people to overthrow invaders called the Vrangs. His willingness to tell the truth, despite the fact that he was killed for it, is honored by Kryptonians. When the ceremony is over, Superman and Supergirl return home to explain their behavior to their friends.
