Synopsis:
Lois and Clark take a cruise aboard the Grenodier. While on board, Clark sees a woman fall overboard, so he dives after her making the rescue. The woman is Nan Wilson, owner of Pogo Island. Clark and Lois are then invited to the island as guests.

On the island, Nan is attacked by the natives who believe she is a witch. The natives are provoked by a witch doctor, really Nan’s plantation foreman in disguise. He wants to keep people away because he is using the island as a submarine base for a foreign nation. Superman protects Nan, exposes the foreman’s plot, and turns him over to the authorities.
