Synopsis:
Jimmy Olsen is captured by a gang of criminals. They threaten Jimmy and demand that he reveal Superman's secret identity. To stall for time, Jimmy claims that Perry White is Superman. The crooks then expose Perry to Kryptonite. When he is unaffected they realize their mistake. However, Clark Kent is affected and falls unconscious.
The crooks then kidnap Superman and release Jimmy. However, they announce his betrayal to the world. Jimmy's fan club is outraged that Jimmy would betray his friend. To redeem himself, Jimmy assists the CIA in locating and rescuing Superman.
During the escape, Superman switches places with a robot. He then pretends that the robot was actually captured intentionally in order to trap the crooks. By doing this, Superman covers his exposed secret identity and restores Jimmy's reputation.
