Synopsis:
Clark Kent attends a costume party at the Daily Planet in a devil costume. He has to leave suddenly when he spots two wanted criminals outside. To gather evidence against them, the Man of Steel uses his powers to pretend he is the devil. He tricks the crooks into writing and signing a confession of their criminal deeds, then he turns them over to the police.
