While trailing a movie actress, Lois Lane learns that the employees of a hair salon are using truth gas on their customers and then blackmailing them with their secrets. Lois contacts the actress, Sandra Thorne, and tries to catch the crooks in the act. However, they do not show up forcing Lois to return to the salon.

Lois undergoes the truth gas treatment, but she has taken the antidote. She tries to trick the blackmailers but they learn of her plot. The crooks gas her at her home and force her to reveal the existance of a Kryptonite meteor. The crooks try and steal the meteor, but it is fake and Superman is inside. When the time is right, he bursts free and catches the criminals.
