Synopsis:
An ordinary man, Harry Winters, dresses as Superman to please his son. Trouble outside attracts his attention. A menacing robot is threatening to create an explosion. Clark Kent is nearby, but before he can act as Superman, two crooks grab him. Harry arrives and is mistaken for the real Superman. With an invisible super-assist from Clark, Harry defeats the robot.

The crooks threaten to shoot Clark unless Harry helps them locate money hidden by their boss. Fearing for Kent’s life, Harry does his best to locate the money. Clark secretly helps Harry perform his super-deeds.

Harry finally comes up with a plan which cuts the lights in the room. Clark frees himself and catches the crooks. Harry is proclaimed a hero for saving Clark.
