Synopsis:
The police are called to the office of Harvey Brown, patent attorney. Sergeant Blake finds the office in chaos. Brown explains that Superman was just there. The Man of Steel destroyed the office to scare Brown into returning money that he swindled from clients.

Blake thinks Superman is still in the building. One of his men thinks he is in the elevator, so Blake and his men are waiting outside when the doors open. Instead of Superman, they find reporter Clark Kent inside. Clark then accompanies the police back to headquarters.

When they arrive, Blake is informed that murderer Biff Dugan has been captured. Clark asks for an interview. He uses a potential article about Blake's bungled attempt to apprehend Superman as leverage. Clark is given a private interview with Dugan, but the killer escapes through a window. Superman goes after him and brings him back to the station. Blake wants to blame Clark, but when the prisoner is found back inside the room, he is forced to acknowledge that Superman does some good.
