Synopsis:
Having accidentally traveled into the past of Earth-2, Superboy continues to instruct the teenage Clark Kent of this world in the use of his powers. Superboy is also introduced to Clark's parents, John and Mary Kent.

After concluding their visit, Superboy leaves to return to his own Earth, while Clark joins the circus as the Masked Wonder. When the center pole of the big top cracks, Clark must use his super strength to support the structure until repairs can be made. Although he receives an offer from the ringmaster to become the star attraction, Clark decides to leave the circus.

On the way home he meets Superboy again. The Boy of Steel has been unable to crack the dimensional barrier on his own to return to his own Earth. By combining their speed in opposing circles, the two future Supermen are able to recreate a tornado that transports Superboy across dimensions and back home. Clark then returns home having dedicated himself to using his powers in service to others. Both boys wonder if they'll ever meet again.
