Synopsis:
A hooded man enters a jewelry store and asks for all the jewels to be handed over. The store employees are hypnotically forced to obey. When the police try and stop the crook, they are forced to help him escape. Later, even Superboy helps the crook escape after his thefts.

Vic Munster, a mobster, learns of the hooded man, dubbed the Rainbow Raider because of a rainbow jewel on his hood. Vic lures the Raider to a gem show, where he proposes a partnership. The Raider refuses, which causes Vic’s mob to capture him. Superboy arrives to rescue the Raider, who was a ploy used by the police and the Boy of Steel to lure Vic into the open. After Vic is caught, Superboy carrys the Rainbow Raider home because it is really a disguised Jonathan Kent.
