Synopsis:
Clark Kent is introduced to Nick Williams, who claims to be Superman’s personal manager. Clark, secretly Superman, decides to trap Williams and takes him up on his offer for a personal interview with the Man of Steel. Lois Lane learns of Clark’s interview and sets a trap of her own. Convincing Clark that she has finally "come to her senses," Lois has him escort her for a night on the town before his interview. While at a swank nightclub, she drugs Clark and races to keep his appointment with Williams and Superman. The drug has no effect on Clark’s nervous system, and he follows Lois as Superman. Lois is unconvinced by the actor Williams hired to play Superman and threatens to uncover the scam. To keep Lois from carrying out her threat, Williams and the actor push her out an open window, but Superman arrives in time to save her and expose Williams as the fraud he is.
