Synopsis:
Lois Lane is involved in a scuba diving accident while vacationing in Hawaii. She is rescued by Aquaman, but her legs are crushed. Aquaman takes her to a surgeon who replaces her legs with a tail, so Lois becomes a mermaid.

Lois misses her old life and especially Superman. After assisting Aquaman, Lois is taken by the Man of Steel to the hospital. Superman reads every medical book at super speed and is given a doctor’s degree. He then operates on Lois and restores her legs to normal.
