Synopsis:
Superboy's father Jor-El arrives on Earth after a freak accident while using a time-stretch globe. Jor-El is still a boy having been displaced in time 25 years. Superboy meets his father and gives him a tour of Earth. During his father's time on Earth, Superboy chooses not to tell Jor-El about Krypton's fate. After sharing several hours together, Jor-El must return to Krypton. Before Jor-El leaves, Superboy tells him about Krypton's fate and gives him a piece of Red Kryptonite which may lead Jor-El to discover a way to save his homeworld. When Jor-El gets home to his own time and planet, he opens the box containing the Kryptonite. Superboy accidentally gave him a box containing amnesium, which wipes out Jor-El's memory of his visit to Earth.
