Synopsis:
Martha Kent leaves a box of old clothing for Lana to use for a clothing drive. Lana mistakenly takes a box of Superbaby souvenirs. Martha tries to find Lana before she can open the box. Even with Clark's help, she is unable to stop Lana before she opens the box. However, Superboy quickly creates several identical boxes and replaces the donations of other people. With hundreds of identical items, Lana is unable to link the Superbaby souvenirs back to Clark.
