Synopsis:
Lois Lane captures a photo of Superman changing into his secret identity. Although she has not seen the photo, she plans to satisfy her curiosity by looking at it. When she is injured in a car accident, her personality changes and she uses the photo to blackmail Superman into marrying her.
At Superman’s Fortress of Solitude, Lois is exposed to some youth serum which changes her into a teenager. Authorities don’t believe she is of legal age to get married. She then uses the youth serum on Superman and both he and Lois continue to get younger eventually turning into babies. The two are nearly married when a lawyer makes special arrangements, but as a baby Lois is unable to speak her vows. The serum eventually wears off and a doctor restores her rightful personality. Lois then destroys the photo, deciding it is too dangerous.
